While the Xbox Series X is set to get a price increase elsewhere in the world, in the US it’s actually getting discounts. As part of its Black Friday in July sale, Dell is offering the Xbox Series X console for just $449.99. That’s 10% off the MSRP of $499.99 and $50 in savings for anyone who hasn’t picked up the console just yet. With Starfield right around the corner, this could be the perfect opportunity to score the console while it’s at a discount.
We’ve also seen some discounts on the PS5 over the past few days, in the UK that is, but we might just see the rumoured sale come to the US this week as well. Monoprice has now got the console down to its rumored $450 sale price ($50 off), matching the Xbox Series X deal, and signaling that we might be getting the same standalone PS5 sale that those in the UK and Europe are already enjoying.

Why Should I Buy an Xbox Series X?
When it comes to the Xbox Series X, it stands as a cutting-edge gaming system, capable of delivering breathtaking 4K gaming experiences at a remarkable 120 frames per second. It proudly boasts superior technical capabilities compared to its counterpart, the PS5, resulting in enhanced performance for games that are compatible with both platforms, favoring the Xbox console.
In contrast to the $300 Xbox Series S, the Xbox Series X features even more potent hardware, empowering it to effortlessly handle games in mesmerizing 4K resolution (whereas the Xbox Series S runs games at 1440p). Additionally, the Xbox Series X comes equipped with a convenient disc drive, enabling users to enjoy 4K Blu-ray movies and physical game media. For Starfield, the Xbox Series X will run the game at a locked 4K 30fps.
