We’ve been very focused on the PS5 and where gamers can find one, but the Xbox also deserves a little love.
The Xbox Series X | S has the potential to be a sleep console this generation, with many great games currently being developed.
But if you still want to grab a new Xbox, then we’ve covered it.
An unlikely trader has stock
Although many of us tend to go to GAME, Amazon, Argos, Smyths, etc. Looking for the latest stock, there are some companies that sell consoles and other hardware that most people do not pay attention to, including BT.
BT does sell game consoles, as well as games and computer hardware, but most people are not aware of this.
If we look at the BT store, there are more than 50 Xbox Series S consoles in stock at the time of writing.
The console sells for the standard £ 249.99 and comes with the new Series Controller, which is an improved version of the previous Xbox One controller.
One thing to note is that the Xbox Series S is weaker than its Series X counterpart, which is aimed at 1080p and 1440p rather than 4K and is also digital only, but it is still an impressive console for the price.
With Xbox Game Pass, there are many games to choose from, over 400, and to purchase games in the Xbox Store.
The Series S has only 512 GB of storage, so it’s extremely important for the console to grab an expansion of the storage space.
As the only console we would probably suggest waiting for the Series X to be back in stock, but it would be an excellent choice to sit next to a PlayStation 5 in someone’s TV unit.
Other retailers
Recently we saw that GAME, Argos and Amazon all receive stock of next generation systems, but everything is sold out fast, which means buyers should be quick if they have a chance to grab a new console.
The best advice is to turn on inventory alerts for every website it offers.
Here is a list of most UK retailers that have the new Xbox in stock.
