High-speed SSDs are used in both Xbox Series X and S to reduce loading times. While the Series S has the same CPU as that of the flagship model, it uses a slightly less powerful GPU, memory, and internal storage. But both of these consoles have become the best-selling devices for Microsoft ever since the company first launched them in November 2020.

In fact, during its recent earnings call, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, himself, mentioned a record set by Xbox Series X|S. He revealed that these consoles are the fastest-selling Xbox consoles of all time. Moreover, they have also sold more units to date than any previous Xbox device from Microsoft. And the newer series has done it in less than two years of its initial release, which is highly commendable.

As reported by GamesRadar, Mr. Nadella said this regarding the latest consoles: “[Microsoft has] sold more consoles life-to-date than any previous generation of Xbox.”
