Microsoft has revealed the size of the Xbox Series X, and Xbox and The Test Driver and This Is Guy's Austin Evans have shared a photo of a fridge and a banana for scale, respectively.

The Xbox Series X's size, which is 151mm x 151mm x 301mm (5.94in x 5.94in x 11.85in), was revealed alongside a ton of new details on Microsoft's next-gen console, including its full specs.

For comparison, the Xbox One X is 299.7mm x 238.7mm x 60.9mm (11.8in x 9.4in x 2.4in)

Perhaps in a nod to a previous tweet by Daniel Ahmad, senior analyst at Niko Partners, Xbox gave its fans a look at how the Xbox Series X compares to one of the kitchen's marquee appliances - the fridge.

However, that's not all, as Austin Evans, who was one of the first people outside of Xbox to get hands-on with the Xbox Series X, shared with the world how the new system compares to the potassium-filled banana.

The Xbox Series X will include 8x Zen 2 Cores at 3.8GHz, 12 teraflops, 16GB GDDR6 RAM, 1TB of internal storage with the option for expandable storage through a 1TB Expansion Card, and much more.

The Xbox Series X's processor has enough power to run up to four Xbox One S game sessions at once and its dedicated hardware-enabled Ray Tracing can harness "the equivalent of 25 teraflops of power, despite the console's GPU having 12 teraflops.

Microsoft has also released two new tech demos, which you can see below, that showcase the improved loading times and the Quick Resume technology packed into each and every Xbox Series X.
