Online sales only, and includes Xbox 360. So that XBO won Black Friday isn't a definitive.

Where does it say 360?

In the article given in the OP it refers to the five as products, when actually Adobe were giving the top brand, as is evident by "LG's TVS" that's multiple products, as is Xbox.

Here's a better written statement from another site.

"Xbox was the fifth best-selling electronics brand online on Black Friday, according to Adobe’s annual market-tracking data for the United States. It came in behind Apple iPads, Samsung’s 4K televisions, MacBook Airs, and LG’s TVs, but it also outperformed Sony’s PlayStation, That means that the Xbox One was likely the top-selling console in the U.S."

So you are assuming that it is? Not that 360 would add much at all.

It's not an assumption, but yeah it wouldn't add too much.

Though it turns out that according to Adobe Cyber Monday was actaully a bigger day for online sales than Black Friday.

"Cyber Monday surpassed Black Friday with 3.39 billion dollars in sales (10.2% growth year-over-year), thus becoming the largest online sales day in history."

"When it comes to gaming consoles, Sony’s PlayStation 4 seems to have sold extremely well during Cyber Monday. It joined Microsoft’s Xbox One in the five top-selling electronic products, Moreover, according to Adobe PlayStation 4 was the best-selling console for the entire season (November 1-28)"

So really the importance of XB1 taking online sales on BF isn't actaully as important as you'd think, as surprisingly it wasn't the best selling day.

Sure, I guess BF is really about physical sales. Also it doesn't say much when we don't know

a) which numbers are online for BF in general and

b) how much better CM was then BF online.

Yeah it would be nice if Adobe gave figures for the online sales they tracked, then we'd be able to get some idea of the online to retail ratio.

I've found the figures for BF Online sales, the difference isn't especially large.

BF - 3.34 billion dollars

CM - 3.39 billion dollars

Ah! Thankyou! Sooo I guess the PS4 still has a chance to win BF, and XONE on Cyber Monday and the whole month if we include offline sales.
