But what if Scarlet is... just an Xbox One X?

Microsoft is both confused and confusing right now. Announcing Scarlet this early suggests that the X was poorly timed and overpriced.

If it's a next gen console it's clearly going to be much more powerful than the Xbox One X.

It's not even that difficult to build a console for the same price as the Xbox One X right now that is significantly faster.
Lots of "premium" design/ideas/tech wen't into that console. I.E. Cooling and Power Delivery. - That is all cost that could have been spent on a faster SoC.



With that in mind, I highly doubt Scarlet is an Xbox One X successor, it's timing wouldn't be appropriate for that... But... I could also be wrong.
