The most exciting part about this leak is that more PS5 news should be coming sooner rather than later

[Verge] Microsoft’s new Xbox Series S console confirmed in leaked controller packaging

Every Xbox One controller since the Xbox One S launch has had Bluetooth.
There's no way they could undercut the pricing of the Series S. It's impossible without losing a lot of money.
That seems a bit XSive.
PS5 is now an Xbox Series X exclusive.

They might not beat it in price, but they'll make the value judgment less appealing if they can make the price difference not too crazy.

How is a next-gen SKU such an enigma this close to launch. Will XSX launch by itself? Have developers even started developing for XSS yet?
The Verge confirms the controller is legit
I'd say there's more pressure on Sony to name a price than Microsoft. Having all the hype leading into the next gen does have downsides.
Oh someone was actually able to purchase this controller, is Microsoft possibly releasing this in a couple days?
Ive always found the notion of a "Series S" weird because all of Microsoft's marketing and 3P's so far has, of course, been marketed as being Xbox Series X enhanced.
The X|S on the the box, when Xbox One doesn't get a distinction between One/S/X REALLY makes me think they're gunna call refer to this thing as Xbox Series XS -> Kinda like with iPhones.

Not in a serious way, no.
Ah well in that case then I understand. =P
Yea. This and Fable never had a chance for a surprise lol.
IOS 13 officially added controller support on all apple devices... okay not all. No controller support for the watch.
Xbox isn't able to compete with Sony though, I doubt they're concerned and will announce PS5 price without any regard for Xbox strategy.
/s
But previous gen leaders announce price first, world is looking at Sony not MS at this time. Just look at all that social media metrics. MS can wait it out if need be.
Well the Lockhart is a digital only console. So you likely won't have retail boxes for it
I think this will be a game changer for the industry. Entry level to AAA gaming for $200-300. I can't wait!
I'm willing to bet three Turkish lira the difference in price is going to be at least 200$ ^.^
sony can't undercut xss. it's probably going to be xss $399, ps5 $499, xsx $599.
Seems more like it leaked out of a warehouse, as there are other listings for it. Reminds me of the KH3 Xbox leaks
I'm not talking about Bluetooth in talking about the ability to sync your controller to your phone and Xbox and just pressing the switch instead of resyncing the controllers everytime.
As someone who just has a dedicated controller for xcloud that is a super useful feature, I can just grab one of these instead.
eh, this actually clears it up a bit, as it makes it clear that "series" splits the generations.
xbox one s, x
xbox series s, x
To be fair, adding a share button is a HUGE fix if you are into sharing stuff on social media like I do.
Also, I'm curious on the d-pad, the one controller is good enough for me to play 2d fighters, but it could definitely be improved, don't know if is going to get better or worse
Nice. When do you think we will finally get an announcement and also a price from both Sony and Microsoft ?
Or as Xbox series x|s as they did on this box.
This kind of labeling does make me think they intend to support Xbox one s/x for quite a while though. Like 2-3 years.
Eventually they will drop game support to just xbox series x|s, and mention Xbox series x enhanced. Just like they have been doing for the one x.
I've done that... and also remember purchasing PS2 games and a memory card while waiting on my PS2. Good memories!
