The vapor chamber was only one of the examples, for the size and specialization on the console and expected sales I don't see it hitting 200 USD even in 4 or 5 years for it to be entry level in next gen.

So on next gen with simpler HW delivering much more power I don't think it will make sense to keep X1X as the low end. Just like PS3 couldn't be as low as PS4 is hitting now even after 7 years.

I agree. The Xbox One X won't be kept around next gen and used as a budget console, not as it is now anyway, Microsoft will need to do allot of hardware revisions to make such an endeavor possible... And you would still end up with a terrible CPU.

If sales are good it could go down to 299 and cushion a little the beginning of next gen.
