Xbox Series S Wins Black Friday in the US
According to the latest data, the best-selling console in the U.S. on Black Friday is the Xbox Series S. It sured the PS5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch.
IN A NUTSHELL:
- The best-selling console in the US during Black Friday was Xbox Series S;
- The data was compiled by Adobe, based on one trillion online store visits.
Business Insider reports that this year's Black Friday was dominated by Xbox Series S. It turns out that it outsells Nintendo Switch OLED version, PS5, and its more powerful brother, Xbox Series X. This result, however, is not so surprising if we take into that new-gen hardware is often difficult to come by or sold at inflated prices. Xbox Series S, on the other hand, can be bought anywhere and is a relatively inexpensive device.
The sales success of Xbox Series S has been confirmed thanks to Adobe. Using Adobe Analytics, the company compiled data on more than one trillion visits to various online retailers in the U.S. and presented it in the Digital Economy Index summary.
We do not know whether the position of the best-selling console would change in the case of better availability of other devices. However, it is certainly a huge success for Microsoft. In addition, there are good chances that the corporation will also earn from the Xbox Game subscription, which will be bought by many new players.
