Microsoft has just upped the price of the Xbox Series X, but there is a way to beat the rise if you act fast.
Right now, Argos is selling the console for £499.99, compared to the price on Microsoft’s site of £669.99. That’s a saving of 25%.
There’s no telling how long this deal will be here, but if you’re in the market for an upgrade, now’s the time to save some money with the console’s price hike.
This Xbox Series X deal beats Microsoft’s price hike by £170
Looking for a genuine Xbox Series X discount? This retailer is currently selling Microsoft’s flagship console for £170 less.
Thanks to Microsoft’s powerful RTX-style processor, next-gen gameplay is the name of the game on the Xbox Series X . Not only are the latest titles designed to take full advantage of the console’s graphics card, but thanks to backward compatibility, this console can play thousands of games from older consoles too.
In our 4.5-star review for the Seres X, Matt Tate had this to say: “The Xbox Series X offers plenty of major upgrades on its predecessor, including 4K graphics with support for ray tracing, super-speedy SSDs to pace through loading screens and features like Quick Resume that allow you to boot up a game right where you left it.”
The Series X also comes sporting a 1TB SSD, enough for a good selection of games.
You’ll save quite a bit of money today in this offer, so if you want to enjoy the latest generation of gaming at the lowest price possible, this is the way to go.
The Xbox Series X doesn’t win on exclusive games, but when it comes to features it is an amazing bit of kit, with highlights including Quick Resume, Smart Delivery and Xbox Game Pass. However, it is in danger of falling behind with both slimmer and more powerful versions of the PS5 now available and no sign of a boosted Series X to compete.
