This is it — your wait for an Xbox Series S deal is over. Gamers and console-lovers rejoice! The Xbox rarely goes on sale, but Dell is offering an excellent deal right now that you won’t want to miss.

Dell discounted their Microsoft Xbox Series S bundle, which includes a chat headset and a charge kit. Normally $350, you’re getting the Xbox Series S bundle for $335 or $15 off! Yes, we know that’s not a crazy deal, but it’s still worth sharing! We don’t know how long it’s going to last, though, so hurry up if you’re interested and want that new console. Video game deals aren’t as common as you’d think, and you know how difficult it is to get a next-gen console right now.

The Series S features a 512GB solid-state drive, an 8-core Zen 2 processor, and 4 Teraflops GPU using a custom RDNA 2 GPU chipset. It’s packed with power and ready to rock! Enjoy 120 frames per second at 1440p resolution. Load times are practically nonexistent compared to last-generation consoles, and Microsoft added tons of new tricks. For example, switching between multiple games is as easy as switching browser tabs, and you can pick up right where you left off on both.

This particular bundle from Dell includes the Xbox Series S console with a controller, a chat headset, and a charging kit. The headset has a bendable boom, an LED power light, and dual mics. It’s totally wireless and will get up to 15 hours of life off a single charge. If it runs out, half an hour of charging will bring it back up to four full hours of life again. The volume controls are built into the side of the earcups, so no dongle or remote is required. You can even fine-tune the audio with an equalizer (think cutting the treble on any high-pitched shriekers). It’s Bluetooth-enabled, so you can connect it to your phone and listen to music when you’re not gaming.

More gaming deals available now

Here are a bunch of other gaming deals that are available right now. You might not be fond of the Xbox Series S, but there’s plenty more where that came from!

While gaming on a PC is great, it can be very pricey, especially if you're the sort of person who really wants to push the graphics to the limit. Unfortunately, doing that can cost you a big chunk of money, not to mention that it requires the time and effort to put one together. Luckily, consoles like the PS5 and Xbox are easy to use for pretty much anybody and are very much plug-and-play. That said, there aren't a ton of great deals on the consoles themselves right now, although there are still quite a few good bundle deals that are worth grabbing. To that end, we've gone out and collected our favorite Series S and X deals, PlayStation 5 deals, and Nintendo Switch deals, so you can pick whichever one sparks your fancy.
Nintendo Switch OLED Refurbished -- $298 $349 15% off

The Nintendo Switch, in many ways, is the ultimate handheld gaming device. Everything Nintendo has released since the Gameboy has culminated here. That makes it even more exciting when they commit some serious resources to making the mobile aspect as good as it can be. For instance, adding an OLED screen. The Nintendo Switch OLED is an obvious upgrade that will be most exciting for people who like to game on the go. If you don't own an OLED TV already, you might find yourself playing it in handheld mode just for the gorgeous visuals. When comparing the Switch OLED versus the standard Switch, the only real difference is the screen and a slight memory upgrade. Unfortunately, there currently aren't any good deals on bundles or consoles for the Nintendo Switch OLED, so the best thing to do is go for a refurbished version if you want to buy cheaper.
