Microsoft has opened the box of surprises and in the last hours it seems that it has given freedom to all those secrets that we so longed to know. We are obviously talking about the details of the next consoles, and it is that after knowing the technical specifications of the two models of Xbox consoles, it is time to put them face with a more external and real vision.
The size of Xbox Series S
With the idea of being able to focus a little on the matter, Microsoft has sent to some media and bloggers two models of its life-size consoles so that they can feel and witness how big the new consoles are that will hit stores on November 10 . As they are mockups, none of these consoles have internal or electronic components, so in addition to not turning on, they will not offer the final weight of the product.
They are basically the empty shells, so they serve to imagine how they feel roughly. This is what they have told The Verge , where they have shared several images of the two consoles to get an idea of how big they are. Or rather, how small is the Xbox Series S.

Microsoft’s white model is downright small. Its final dimensions are 27.5 centimeters long, 15.1 centimeters deep and 6.3 centimeters wide (if we place it vertically), but if you need to see exactly the difference with other consoles on the market, it would be better to Check out these comparison images, especially the one that pits the console against the original PS4, as the size is cut almost in half.
Xbox Series X compared to PS4 Pro
On the side of the Xbox Series X we can see how the monolithic design of the console imposes vertically, but loses all sense when we place it horizontally. Something that has attracted attention is that it seems that the black housing seems to be a magnet for fingerprints, so we may need to have a cloth nearby every time we touch the console.
Compared to the PS4 Pro, this Xbox Series X feels quite another generation quite superior, so at the design level there is no doubt that Microsoft has managed to bring a very special product to life.
In terms of measurements, the Xbox Series X measures 15.1 centimeters wide and deep (its base is completely square) and 30.1 centimeters high, measurements that, although we already imagined it, will complicate its placement in some furniture of TV, since when lying down it has a fairly significant height.
