2. The Xbox One X for $400 is the first major discount on the most powerful home game console available.
The Xbox One X — the beefed-up version of the Xbox One released just last year — is a powerhouse. It's whisper quiet, capable of producing 4K visuals, and shockingly tiny. It's also very expensive, starting at $500 without any games included.
But during Microsoft's Black Friday sales week, November 18 to November 26, the console is getting its first major price drop: You can snag the Xbox One X for just $400.
Still expensive? Yes! But significantly less expensive than it once was.
Not interested in the Xbox One X? The standard Xbox One S is also getting a $100 price drop.
For $200, you can snag an Xbox One S with a copy of "Minecraft." And when that version of the Xbox One S sells out everywhere instantly, you'll be able to drop just $30 more for the same console without "Minecraft."
Here's hoping that stores have plenty of that "Minecraft" bundle, eh?
