Xbox One holiday deal drops price by $50

Discount applies to all consoles and game bundles


Microsoft’s Black Friday deal for the Xbox One is back for the holidays: a $50 discount on the Xbox One.

The offer applies to all Xbox One consoles, including the Xbox One S, which debuted in August and supports 4K video playback including Ultra HD Blu-rays. Unlike the PlayStation 4 Pro, it cannot play games at 4K, although the PS4 Pro does not include a 4K Blu-ray drive. Both consoles support high dynamic range (HDR) color.

Microsoft’s holiday deal runs from now through Dec. 24, matching Sony’s discount on the “slim” PS4 bundled with Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. Sony is not offering a deal on the PS4 Pro, which launched a month ago. The Xbox One offer also applies to game bundles, such as the package that includes a 1 TB Xbox One S console and a download code for Gears of War 4. With the discount, that bundle is available for $299.

This Xbox One discount is separate from Microsoft’s existing holiday promotion, 12 Days of Deals. Those offers are available only at the Microsoft Store, while the $50 off promotion is available at participating U.S. retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop and Target.

Took them a while to announce the deal. Wonder why? I'm sure PS4 is trouncing Xbox One again, probably even worse sense they had the Xbone at 299 the past week.

Good for holiday shoppers.

Does anybody know if the XB1 S is making any profit at this price?

I saw a jewelry commercial where if you spend over 999.00 U.S you get a free Xbox One S...makes you wonder how much they are over charging.

PS4 will still demolish Xbone, though.

That just seems an odd thing to include in the article. I mean it goes from a "here is a sale" to a quick blurb comparing it to the ps4 pro. Which isn't on sale and has nothing to do with this article really.

For shame! M$ must have paid them to type that.

As far as this deal goes, meh... it's been $50 off for months. Everyone who's wanted one to replace their OGs has probably gotten one already.

Now, when can the PS4 Pro get a price cut? I need one for my 4K TV.

Still do, doesn't change the fact that PS4 is destroying Xbox sales wise.
