Xbox Series S owners now have the option of a "Designed for Xbox" portable screen, which attaches directly to the console.
The Upsec Gaming xScreen isn't a new product. In fact, it started life as a Kickstarter project back in 2021 and reached its funding goal in just 20 minutes. The following year, the xScreen was selling for $250 and receiving good reviews despite the high price.
To give you an idea of how good the portable display is, check out this video of the xScreen being used to play Elden Ring:
Sales of the portable display should see a major boost in the run up to the holidays because, as IGN reports, Upsec announced the xScreen has achieved "Designed for Xbox" status and is now an officially-licensed product.
The Designed for Xbox Partner Hardware Program offers licensed partners access to Xbox branding guidelines and technical specifications. For consumers, it offers the peace of mind that any accessory displaying the "Designed for Xbox" tag has passed through the Xbox Quality Assurance team and a barrage of tests and validation procedures.
Anyone interested in purchasing an xScreen can currently grab one at the discounted price of $209.99 (16% off). What you're getting is an 11.6-inch 1080p 60Hz IPS display that securely attaches to the Xbox Series S and folds shut when not in use. Sound is handled by two built-in speakers. Once fitted, the only cable you'll need is the one required to power the Series S, and for an extra $50, there's a travel case to go along with it which includes space for the Xbox power cable and a controller.
