A new display turns Xbox Series S into a portable console
XScreen Kickstarter will launch this summer
A new Kickstarter set to launch soon will provide a portable screen that plugs directly into the Xbox Series S.
The xScreen is designed to plug into the Series S’s HDMI and USB ports and folds up to offer an 11.6″ IPS screen.
The result is similar to portable screens that were designed for the PSOne and GameCube which essentially turned those consoles into ‘portable’ devices (as long as a power supply was nearby).
The screen has a resolution of 1080p and a 60 Hz refresh rate, meaning any Series S games that support 4K or 120fps won’t be able to use these features on the xScreen.
It includes integrated power, meaning it can be powered through the Series S without a need for a second power adapter.
It also features an integrated 5-watt speaker, as well as a latch that holds the screen in place without detaching from the console.
According to its creator UPspec Gaming, the screen will only weigh 695g and can be placed in a 15″ laptop bag along with the Series S for transportation.
The xScreen’s Kickstarter is set to launch soon, but anyone interested can reserve the peripheral for $1 on the xScreen website, which will lock in its ‘early bird’ pricing of $159 (compared to the full price of $249).
