Microsoft
has
started
selling
a
discless
version
of
its
Xbox
Series
X
console
today,
in
the
same
white
paint
job
as
the
smaller
Xbox
Series
S.
The
only
change
over
the
carbon
black
exterior
of
the
original
Xbox
Series
X
is
that
this
new
white
model
doesn’t
include
a
disc
drive.
There’s
no
option
to
add
a
disc
drive
to
this
white
model
either,
so
you’ll
have
to
be
confident
you’re
happy
playing
digital
games
or
titles
from
Xbox
Game
Pass
before
purchasing
this
$449.99
variant.
Microsoft
hasn’t
changed
the
rear
ports
either,
so
there’s
two
USB-A
ports,
a
HDMI
2.1
port
to
connect
to
your
TV
or
monitor,
an
Ethernet
port,
and
the
storage
expansion
slot
at
the
rear
of
the
console.
At
the
front
there’s
a
single
USB-A
port,
alongside
the
pair
button
to
connect
controllers
and
accessories.
The
white
coating
on
the
discless
Xbox
Series
X
matches
the
same
“robot
white”
found
on
the
Xbox
Series
S.
Microsoft
is
also
releasing
a
$349.99
1TB
Xbox
Series
S
in
white
for
the
holidays,
alongside
a
$599.99
2TB
“Galaxy
Black”
special
edition
of
the
Xbox
Series
X.
Leaks
of
the
white
Xbox
Series
X suggested
that
Microsoft
may
have
upgraded
the
heatsink
used
to
cool
the
console,
but
we’re
waiting
on
teardowns
to
confirm
if
there
are
any
internal
changes
that
improve
the
cooling.
