UPDATE 5/2/2025: Welp, that went fast because Dell finally came to their senses and are now charging the marked up price of $549. Lame, we know.
Microsoft just slapped a $100 premium on its Xbox Series X and S consoles, because why wouldn’t they make next-gen gaming even pricier?
But hold your rage-quit: Dell hasn’t gotten the memo yet, and you can still snag the Series X (1TB) for $449.99—the original price before the corporate overlords decided we all needed to pay extra.
That’s $100 off the new MSRP, which basically makes this deal a glitch in the matrix.
Oh, and that adorable little Xbox Series S (512GB)? Yeah, it’s still chilling at its pre-hike price too. Perfect for your secondary TV, your kid’s room, or as a glorified Netflix box that occasionally runs Halo.
Pro Tip: Retailers like Amazon and Walmart will likely cave to Microsoft’s price hikes soon. Dell’s discount? It’s basically a ticking time bomb.
If you’ve been eyeing an Xbox, smash that buy button before Dell’s algorithm wakes up and smells the markup.
And hey, even if you’re not ready to pull the trigger now, bookmark this deal. When the rest of the market starts charging $549 for the Series X next week, you’ll kick yourself for missing out. Stay frosty, folks—this price hike apocalypse is coming fast.
