Online retailers see replenished Xbox One stock following holidays

4.6
Microsoft executives had the company fighting hard to make sure its new Xbox One console was available during the holiday season, and it appears that has resulted in readily available online stock following the post-Christmas shopping season.

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.”

Everything Made by Microsoft is terrible look at there history they always make thing BROKE they been doing it for YEAAAARRRRRSSSSS and stupid ppl still follow them they also back stab & use ppl and ppl still follow LMFAO.

Both consoles have problems. Sony has also been doing it for years. The consoles have bugs that will take time to work out. Its not going to help to have people whining about their ability to make a console. You could not have done ANY better.

General_Raam Good to see MS can spit them out so fast. Sony is struggling to keep up with their demand.


thats cause SONY likes to make sure they don't sell broken faulty systems like XBOX, *******, sony has a 0.04% fail rate. Microsoft had 1.0+ fail rate, there disc drive was broke, some where bricking, 1st patch would not install, some would boot up & stop not go pass green xbox logo screen. & some of the webcam would not work. so what about sony needs keep up demands hahaha SONY making sure they selling WORKING SYSTEMS, who the fck wants a RUSHED system it makes it more of a rish of being broken or have flaws DUH. so this is BAD NEWS
