This Startup Presents Accessories That Make Xbox Series S A Portable Console

GAMEFINITY.ID, Purworejo – A startup called UPspec Gaming presents an accessory in the form of a monitor screen that will turn the Xbox Series S console into a laptop-like portable console.

The startup calls it “xScreen”. With these accessories, you can take your Xbox Series S everywhere like a gaming laptop. You only need to connect it to electricity when using it.

This xScreen has an 11.6-inch screen with an IPS LCD panel, 1080p resolution and 60Hz refresh rate. This accessory connects to the Xbox Series S via the HDMI and USB ports on the back of the console. In addition, xScreen has a built-in speaker, so you don’t have to use a headset when using this monitor screen.

Interestingly, xScreen does not require any additional cables to connect it to the Xbox Series S. This monitor screen draws power directly from the console and its HDMI port also connects directly without cables.

In addition, xScreen has a hook between the display and the console that allows the Xbox Series S to stay connected to this monitor screen at all times. The form factor, which is similar to a laptop, certainly makes this monitor foldable to fit the Xbox Series S.

According to UPspec, xScreen only weighs 695 g which is relatively light for a monitor. The Xbox Series S itself weighs 1.93 kg. So when the two are paired, the total weight is only about 2.63 kg. This makes it still able to fit into a 15-inch laptop bag.

For now, xScreen is here in the form of crowdfunding on Kickstarter. Due to great enthusiasm, the crowdfunding was fully funded in just 20 minutes after opening. As of this writing, his Kickstarter crowdfunding has raised around $49,000.

To get this xScreen, you need to fund a minimum of $186 or around 2.7 million Rupiah. Shipping costs are charged separately and estimated delivery is around January 2022. Crowdfunding on Kickstarter will close on August 6th, so those of you who are interested can start funding right away.
