The Xbox Series X was unveiled back in 2019 at The Game Awards. The world got a glimpse at what Xbox had planned for the next generation of gaming and it did not disappoint. Immense computing power, graphical prowess, and overall performance made it even more powerful than the PlayStation 5. Although, this did not stop the community from making memes on Series X’s design.

The revelation event had only shown a 3D render of the system that led people to believe that it would be humongous. Eventually, Xbox had to put out a graphic that reassured the fans that the Xbox wasn’t as big as they thought. Take a look at how they responded to all the memes below:

With this product, it seems like Xbox will soon launch its own line of refrigerators. The Series S was also subject to memes where it was called a speaker. Hopefully, Microsoft will soon unveil its own line of Series S style speakers as well.

Nevertheless, this is brilliant marketing from Microsoft where they are not letting the trolls get to them. This is definitely a big win for Xbox ahead of its global launch on November 10.
