The "Xbox Series S" is said to be a low-priced version, but it has 120FPS output and a 512GB SSD disk.
The lack of a disk drive is also listed in the same row, but it seems to be more of an appealing point than a disadvantage.
The main specs are similarly listed at the bottom of the front of the box.
The "Xbox Velocity Architecture" logo, which is the soul of the next generation of Xbox, is also on the bottom of the box.
