Even though the next-generation consoles from Xbox and PlayStation arrived almost four months ago, the supply still hasn’t been able to meet the exorbitant demand. Just as the fans were losing hope of ever getting their hands on the new consoles, however, things picked up as Sony and Microsoft restocked supplies.

Fans who wish to buy these consoles need to be quick, as most of them vanish within hours, if not minutes. Players wishing to purchase the Series X can now purchase [https://www.bestbuy.com/site/microsoft-xbox-series-x-1tb-console-black/6428324.p?acampID=0&cmp=RMX&irclickid=3L6THxy%3ApxyLREd0O7XQxx3QUkEQqTUoNyT8QI0&irgwc=1&loc=Narrativ&mpid=376373&ref=198&skuId=6428324] the console for $499.99 before the stocks run out again.

In the current market, it’s always great to look out for updates from major online retailers depending on the country. For US customers, Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, Newegg constantly restock their website with consoles. In Canada, Amazon and Best Buy are the best options to buy an Xbox console. For UK customers, Amazon is still the king for purchasing them, but Argos and Currys have quietly updated their restocks, making them a viable option for fans to purchase from. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/xbox.5-2.jpg] THE SCALPER ISSUE The major reason for the lack of consoles on the market has to be the low supply from both Xbox and PlayStation. Adding to that, scalpers have made matters worse for everyone, denying thousands with their practices. Scalpers are people who use bots or other means to buy a large quantity of items quicker than the average customer when restocks take place on websites such as Amazon. These scalpers then resell the consoles for exorbitant prices, given the huge demand for them. Although console developers and retailers try to combat these problems with various tricks, the issue persists, causing problems for the average consumer. Customers still hold on to hope that the supply for the consoles increases and simultaneously minimize the adverse effects of scalpers.

Xbox Series S is the next-gen console by Microsoft that is a scaled-down version of the Xbox Series X. It is Xbox's smallest console yet and is almost 60% smaller than the Series X.

So far, only a white version of the console is shown but it has all the next-gen capabilities. The console may not be as powerful as the Series X but can run all the next-gen games seamlessly.

While the Series S is comparable in basic hardware to Series X, it lacks the Ultra HD Blu-ray optical drive, the raw processing power, and some specs of the high-end variant. The other difference between both of Microsoft’s next-gen consoles is the price point.

<h2>Xbox Series X Expandable Storage</h2>
The Series X console is compatible with a standard standalone hard drive, and it supports products with the Designed for Xbox badge. It will allow players to have had additional storage options apart from the custom NVM Express SSD.

A 2 TB version for Seagate Storage Expansion Card is planned later. Series X is also built with support for USB 3.1 external HDD. Both the options for expandable storage will be sold separately. These standalone products are not included in the console bundle.
<h2>Xbox Series X Accessories</h2>

<h2>Xbox Series X Backwards Compatibility</h2>
Microsoft has stated that Series X is backward compatible with thousands of games across four generations of the Xbox console family. The next-gen console will support all games playable on Xbox One, excluding those requiring the Kinect sensor.

It includes all those Xbox 360 and original Xbox console games currently supported through backward compatibility on the Xbox One console.
