Online retailers see replenished Xbox One stock following holidays
Bundle-free Xbox One consoles have been available at most major online retailers following Christmas, including Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, the Microsoft Store and Walmart. Bundled versions of the console are also available at several outlets, though their availability varies by store. Given Microsoft’s production of Xbox One, stock should continue to be available now that the console’s debut and the holiday shopping season has passed.
Xbox One entered “full production” in September, with the first shipments sent to retailers at about the same time. In its first nine days of release, Microsoft sold 909,132 Xbox One units, according to the NPD Group.
One of the most notable decisions Microsoft made with its console was to use DDR3 memory with an on-board ESDRM chip instead of GDDR5, which was partially done because of production yields. Xbox One architects said the decision was made for power consumption and “the commodity memory is cheaper as well, so you can afford more.”

ToP_NoTcH_TroLLFiji No doubt some of these will be faulty because of the rush to make them
They obliviously wont be faulty, its all on how well/skilled the manufactures employee's/repetitive Robots are at assembling the console's and I really doubt Microsoft is going to let loose hundreds of dodgy console's so they can be thrown away into a trash can, cause Microsoft will then be taking the hit of losing out on the profits their desperately wanting to make.. think first before you write something up bum face!!
Microsoft was letting 360s go out the door with the same major problem for four years. They only care about profit, and are willing to lose some quality...Think first before you write something up bum face

brand65 I heard the Xbox one is horrible that's why not many people are getting it.
It's not horrible. It's just not as "next-gen" as they moan about it.

I wouldn't quite call it a terrible console, problems are also to be expected with a console that was released little over a month ago
Exactly.. People don't understand that it needs time in order to be perfect..
