Key notes
Update:A few hours after the leaked information Microsoft made the announcement official on theXbox Twitter account. The price is $299 (ERP)
Brad Sams leaked all the shiny details about the upcomingMicrosoftXboxSeries S gaming console ona couple of Twitter posts.
The real surprise is thatXboxSeries S’s case is small enough to fit in half of theMicrosoft Xbox Series Xcase.
ButXboxSeries X measures only5.94 inches wide, 5.94 inches deep, and 11.85 inches high so that makesXboxSeries S a pretty small console on its own.
What is new about Microsoft Xbox Series S?

Brad Sams also leaked the price ofXboxSeries S, $299, almost half the one of theXboxSeries X which is $499.
Also, there will be $25/month and $35/monthXboxAll Accessfinancing options for Series S and Series X respectively.
What are the technical specifications for Xbox Series S?
In terms of technical specifications, we expectXboxSeries S to be closer to the power ofXboxOne X, still aimed at 1080p monitors.
AsXboxSeries X will feature a 12TF computational power and it will be ready for 4K with 60 FPS as a standard, we can only hope thatXboxSeries S should reach around half the computational power.
Also, there arerumoursthat the new Series S will have no internal hard drive which could be bad news for somegamers.
Of course, until the official launch of the two consoles on November 10, all these details can only be taken with a grain of salt.
