| Kyuu said: Apparently Series X beat Series S 55:45 so far this year in the US. This is in line with Microsoft's statements and NPD reports. MS stated that they've significantly improved Series X production this year, and yet combined Series S/X sales notably declined YOY. Meaning Series S's decline must have been steep. It's getting outsold like 5:1 in its biggest market, by the more expensive platform. Series S will go down as one of the most overestimated consoles of all time. |
both solutions declined YoY this is simply a result of lackluster 2022 and 2023 up to now.
Series X production improvement was indicated in mid-June at an Xbox event, Shipping routes can take weeks to translate improved manufacturing to improved in-store stock so I would not read too much into it as far as estimating Series S market goes. By all logic, this holiday should give us a way more accurate picture of the state of Xbox overall, and with a bit of luck, a statement from Xbox would give us an accurate S/X ratio somewhere in early 2024.
