Matt also posted interesting info on hardware performances for H1 (first half) of the calendar year.

Overall it's 31% lower YoY for video game hardware in general. 48% down for the Switch, 28% down PS5 and 18% down Xbox Series.

What does it approx. in actual numbers ?

We are still working out the numbers. Though it should be noted those H1 figures are dollar sales and not unit sales.

Indeed, they are. It's just that I was wondering if we could be able to deduce from the monetary total, the underlying units sold.

If the percentage of sales between Series S and X was a constant, maybe?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but he did give out the split sales between the X and S on a monthly basis usually. 

I read it again to be sure, Xbox Series X is in the split lead with 54% units sold.

You're correct, I missed it entirely.  Sorry.
