That'll do it!!

If Microsoft is planning to launch this particular disc-less Xbox Series X soon, that would suggest the company has canceled or pushed back the refreshed version of the Xbox Series X console that leaked in FTC v. Microsoft documents last year.

HeisenbergFX4--is the new controller still coming soon?

 

[Belthazar]

Man, the Series X design just looks even more plain in white.

 

[solidus12]

Will it replace the existing Series X model?
If that’s the case then wow:

 

[Astray]

Kinda weird that the upgraded Series S goes black, and the upgraded Series X goes white.

They have zero awareness of how visual messaging works in marketing.

Thats Racist!

 

[TheBomb]

They claimed that they can't because cost of making these systems isnt going down like it did with 360, X1.

I don’t own a company. It’s so strange they spent 60 billion for a company.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

HeisenbergFX4--is the new controller still coming soon?

This is totally a guess but I would say yes though haven't heard anything about it recently.

Put it this way, haven't heard it was killed

 

[rabbity-thing]

You must've missed the PS5 "slim".

Let's not lose perspective. While I'm not a fan of the PS5 slim, it certainly did more than just cover a disc slot with drywall filler and call it a day.

 

[Mooreberg]

Really glad I jumped on the post black Friday sale of the disc based Series X. This thing is functionally useless to anyone with a healthy backlog of physical Xbox games from the past two decades. The aesthetics are doing it no favors, either.

 

[drganon]

From your description I'd guess... a Playstation.

 

[Kumomeme]

this is what they should do from very beginning, instead of Series S.

 

[solidus12]

Unfortunately, they’ve just entered the console market. Give Phil Spencer some more time.

[Moriarty1889]

Wonder if they will add an external drive option.

 

[UltimaKilo]

I would have considered picking up a Series X had they been planning on releasing the smaller cylinder.

 

[Skifi28]

Not as adorable as I was led to believe.

 

[chromhound]

Such a waste

It's real

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

It's real

The cylinder trash can thing that’s all digital and coming in at $499 sitting on the shelves this holiday season next to the same priced brand new PS5 Pro?

 

[AJUMP23]

I guess it looks good.

 

[saintjules]

Yeah. Is it this year though? Ah yeah could be

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Yeah. Is it this year though? Ah yeah could be

Several months ago heard it was canceled but lately canceled has been replaced with shelved

Make of that what you will, I didn’t ask for clarification

 

[BoxFresh123]

I hope they ditched the two tone controller redesign too. That thing looked awful.

 

[Kataploom]

Damn, I love the XSX look and feel so much! Gimme that boring rectangular monolith over anything else.

Same. Tree fiddy was a banger price, plus I traded my Series S in at gameslop during pro week for $150, making it net $100 +tax

 

[RPS37]

Someone tell me where that new controller is.

 

[MayauMiao]

Yes, that is indeed a Series X painted to be white.

Someone did that, 3 years ago.

 

[Iced Arcade]

Almost Adorable

 

[nick776]

This is yet another bad idea for Xbox. They SHOULD have released a white Series X back in 2022 to boost sales. Releasing it now, when it is not a redesign or the cylinder we all thought was coming, will not move the needle. Yet again--too little, too late. They deserve to fail, I just wish they would go full third party instead of continuing to limp along like this.

 

[odhiex]

Not a slimmer refresh model or a different design, at least?

This is more like the XBOX One SAD edition.

 

[6502]

The way this is bolted down makes me wonder if this is a test / dev unit. Like Wiis that were in Gamecube shells.

Releasing this as a consumer product doesn't make sense, MS can afford to retool and put out a pleasing console shape. This looks like the sort of desperate rehash an almost bankrupt toy company puts out along side a shit tv documentary before they go under.

White electronic equipment

 

[Akuji]

Will check ebay every now and then. If i can get the original series x extremely cheap, will buy it. Just to have the ability to play kameo at 4k if i want to

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Series 32X

Please buy

We promise there will be games

 

[LordBritish]

just give me the handheld please

IS there a "leak" filter in everyone's camera so they use It when they want to leak something? Its 2024, even my old Nokia from 20 years ago made better photos.

The image IS so pixelated that hides any posible bad edit in Photoshop.

 

[P:axMagellanic]

I have no games and I must scream.

 

[tusharngf]

 

[anothertech]

How can it be real if our eyes aren't real

Xbox is a simulation ...

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

Looks like a white Series X.

 

[Randall365]

Just need to put ‘PS5’ on the box now and some people will be dumb enough to buy it!

 

[BlazinAm]

This console gen was Microsoft best chance of recreating the xbox360 era and they really whiffed it hard. This thing needs to be dirt cheap so that they can move some units and get gamepass moving up.

 

[SmokedMeat]

 

[FunkMiller]

The very definition of ‘low effort’.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Current black Series X looks good and I learned to accept its minifridge look. It nicely blends into the background and you don't see the dust piling on top of it.

But yeah, the key issue - no Bluray drive, no buy.

 

[MisterXDTV]

But yeah, the key issue - no Bluray drive, no buy.

Even with the Blu-ray Drive it doesn't sell

I don't know why they keep flooding the market with new SKUs of the same unwanted product

It's completely pointless

 

[scarlet0pimp]

disappointing that all they have done is remove the disk drive. would have hoped to see a slightly smaller design.
Maybe there is more to it, perhaps a slight overclock since it surely will be drawing less power and run slightly cooler. Yes I know it probably wont be the case but I can dream
