The Xbox Series S shares a lot with Microsoft's Xbox Series X. Xbox Series S $299: Amazon | Best Buy | Microsoft | B&H Photo | Target | GameStop | Newegg Xbox Series X $499: Amazon | Best Buy | Target | Walmart | Microsoft | Newegg | Lenovo | GameStop $299.99 at Microsoft Check these stores for Xbox Series X and Series S stock Microsoft currently has stocked the first official Xbox Series S bundle, bundling Fortnite and Rocket League bonuses at no additional cost. It's also missing a disc drive, making this perfect for Xbox Game Pass and digital gaming. It plays the same next-generation games as Xbox Series X, albeit better suited to HD gaming rather than 4K resolution. While Xbox Series X remains impossible to track down, you might be able to score the more affordable Xbox Series S. Fortnite and Rocket League Xbox Series S bundle on sale The Xbox Series S Fortnite and Rocket League bundle has already sold out at some retailers, but you can now pick up the device at Microsoft for $299.99. The special edition package includes Fortnite and Rocket League DLC, providing small savings ahead of the holidays. We also don't expect Xbox Series S to receive a Cyber Monday price cut, but this Xbox console bundle is the closest yet. While Xbox Series S consoles aren't sitting on shelves en masse, you'll have a much easier time getting hands on one compared to Xbox Series X.

It makes Microsoft's alternate Xbox Series S increasingly lucrative, granting full access to the new console generation, also just a fraction of the price. Console demand remains high, and with scarce availability expected into 2023, don't expect that to change anytime soon. This stock-hunting charade is probably familiar to anyone who has purchased big-ticket electronics in the past two years. You shouldn't expect any major Cyber Monday deals on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 consoles this year, especially with each in limited supply, beyond odd restocks throughout the week.
Owners of older Xbox 360 models will still be able to use Kinect, but will have to use a separate power lead which is expected to be bundled with Kinect when it finally hits shelves.The latest console generation had a slow start, with Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 still being hard to find in late 2021 amid ongoing hardware shortages. This port will provide power to the Kinect sensor when it launches, meaning that Xbox 360 Slim owners won’t have to use a separate power source for Kinect. Interestingly, the Xbox 360 Slim also has a new port especially for Kinect, Microsoft’s upcoming camera-based motion sensor controller. There are now five USB 2.0 ports on the Xbox 360 Slim in total (two more than previous versions) three on the back, two on the front under a hinged panel.

The old memory card ports have been swapped for two extra USB 2.0 ports, which makes sense given that a recent Xbox 360 firmware update added USB storage to the console. On the other hand, the Xbox 360 Slim has lost some connections too, though not any functions. Microsoft have finally addressed the 360's lack of WiFi, integrating 802.11 b/g/n wireless networking. While there's no HDMI cable in the box, the Slim does have HDMI output. Speaking of which, when you buy the Xbox 360 Slim you also get a single black, wireless controller, a wired headset and a composite video cable. The new Xbox comes with a 250GB hard disk - the same capacity as the Xbox 360 Elite bundle had - as standard. A hidden button on the bottom end of the Xbox 360 Slim causes a section to drop away, revealing a space for the HDD to be slotted in. The hard drive for the Xbox 360 Slim no longer slots on top of the console either, but slots inside the main body instead. Custom file formats and the like will still form a barrier.
The new drives also swap the old bespoke connection for a standard SATA port too, though we don’t imagine that’ll make it any more possible to use a standard laptop drive in an Xbox 360 Slim. The new Xbox 360 Slim hard drives are much more modest in physical size, measuring just 105 x 20 x 75mm to the older model’s 195 x 24 x 79mm. Most of the space has been saved by a single design too, namely shifting the Xbox 360 hard drive so that it no longer sits bulkily on top of the console in that ludicrously over-sized grey enclosure. That’s not a trimming to be sniffed at, but it does bear pointing out that the Slim isn’t to the Premium as the Macbook Air was to a G4. So, it’s roughly half a centimetre slimmer and three and a half centimetres shorter, by our reckoning.
