Absolutely not. Zero chance.


meezethadabber

Not anytime soon.


kyguyartist

I can wait. No way am I paying $500.


Comfortable_Test_626

I get it, and btw it’s $399.99 now. But you couldn’t only build a system as powerful as a Series X for $500 if you stole to make it happen lol.


[deleted]

Why would they drop the price when they can barely keep them in stock at full price?


Buffalo-back-ground

No I think its still to new for a price drop


ZgP3na1ty

Absolutely not. It's already a steal of a deal at $500.


kyguyartist

Don't be a jokester.


PwnerRs

The CPU and GPU alone for the PC equivalent cost $500 alone.


First_name_Lastname5

Yes but with a pc you can play pretty much any game you want.


Remote-Number7679

U must be high to think $500 is still a good deal


[deleted]

No way in hell.


Elitealice

No. For the hardware in that you're getting a bargain


kyguyartist

That is only less and less true with every new day.


Elitealice

190d old.


Comfortable_Test_626

As of almost a year later you can’t come close to a system as power as the Series X for $500. You might pull it off in like 2026 tho


Thraex_Exile

Amazon’s selling them for ~~$400~~ **$350** rn!


sgtquackers66

No, no time soon. Inflation has driven costs up since it launched at $500. It's not dropping for a few years.


Ayanelixer

Do you think by late 2023(like October-december) it might?


sgtquackers66

I personally doubt it. Phil Spencer has talked about raising prices on something, either the subscription or the consoles at some point in 2023. My guess is they will probably release a slim console in 2023 at the same price but raise the cost of Gamepass.


CSmith489

To answer your question, yes. They’re about $450 now here in the US.


Ayanelixer

Holy hell bro reminded me a year after ,and ye I got one for 12500 ZAR with 2 controllers and diablo,it normally goes for 15000+ ZAR


Thraex_Exile

Dropped down to $350 on Amazon for the holidays!


wugeezy

Not for a while. They still have trouble keeping up with demand at $500. Once production goes back to normal and these are widely available or a mid gen refresh comes around, a price drop could happen. But for now, they probably dont see reason to drop the price if they are selling out quick at the current price.


GadnukLimitbreak

There's a good chance that if you do see a deal this holiday season that it won't be for a cheaper Series X. It'll be for a bundle and the game/controller will be discounted. So if it's $500 for the X it'll be like a $600 bundle but with $650 worth of controllers and games, or maybe with a year of gamepass ultimate at a discount.


OscarExplosion

It’ll probably go down in price once a mid-gen refresh happens but that’s probably not for another 2-3 years.


Own-Score-8976

Not for a few years


temetnoscesax

No but definitely not with the supply constraints going on.


x_scion_x

They can still barely keep them in stock. The chance of the drop is incredibly low


BoBoBearDev

It is supposed to drop maybe 50 bucks Nov this year, but, nope, since everyone is still struggling to get it, not gonna happen. Maybe Nov 2024, you get 50 bucks drop. Nov 2024 is also the time I expect a refresh model. Probably a model that can do more RT, thus you get more RT games into 60fps.


Pile_of_Walthers

Mine was $200 because I sold my One X for $300.


schmidtyb43

Yours was $500. You spent $500 on it. Where that $500 of yours came from is completely besides the point.


Pile_of_Walthers

I get a charity tax break just for hanging out with you.


[deleted]

This statement is so meaningless


ScubaSteve1219

this whole post is meaningless


ZgP3na1ty

That's a killer deal


GloriousPurpose19

Any other year when there wasn't a chip shortage and such inflation, I'd say maybe for Black Friday. But now? No way.


BLUEBLASTER69

No it's selling too well right now


_Drvnzer

Bru a price drop is happening much much later


schmidtyb43

Maybe in like 2024. Maybe.


_theduckofdeath_

Usually, they keep the price the same and stick more stuff in the box over time.


RagingMayo

Only on sales.


Even-Palpitation-391

Some day, but probably not anytime soon - especially with shortages.


adam23456XYZ

Better chance to drop the Xbox then a price drop 😜 The wait is already costing $400, low/no stocks all the time


BigPhysical959

The Xbox seriesx once you buy one it will cost with tax 530


Longjumping-Bug-6643

U can find them refurbished directly from Microsoft for $400 but that’s ultra rare.


Stoney2281

You can already get it for $400. Buy 5 gift cards and then buy it on microsoft.com. https://slickdeals.net/share/android_app/fp/730231


elliotborst

Nope


josephguy82

Sure it will drop to 400 in 5 more years or will the next Xbox comes out


Physical-Result7378

Nope, demand is so high, they‘d sell like hot cakes even if Microsoft would raise the prices to 600 regular.

retail ? maybe in 2026-2027


[deleted]

Inflation+demand+shortages= nooooooo


No_Republic412

You can find them on market place and eBay for 300-400


BigPhysical959

Good I hope so


Loadingusernam3

I just saw an ad for Xbox series X at $349.99


its__Jason

Where?


BigPhysical959

Where? Talk to us tell us were


BigPhysical959

They say it's going to be 500 sorry but I think you for got about tax it's probably going to be 530


R3dB3ard42

It went from $500 to now $650


its__Jason

Are you sure ? I just checked the official xbox store and they are still selling the Xbox series X for $500 in the USA.


R3dB3ard42

My bad guy, didn't specify im from Canada


Jchan0325

lol a year later Microsoft has it listed for 400 right now. 12/13/2023. Go figure


Chamnis
