The massive Xbox document leak has revealed lots of juicy information about Microsoft's gaming plans and other information, including a breakdown of Series X and Series S sales. As it turns out, Microsoft's prediction that the less expensive and less powerful Series S would be the better-selling device turned out to be true.

IGN reports that one of the leaked documents shows that Series S accounted for 74.8% of sales, with Series X making up 25.1%, at least in the relatively early days of the platform's lifecycle. This information is accurate as of early 2022, but the mix has shifted significantly since then, it seems. Circana analyst Mat Piscatella said on Twitter/X that Series S makes up "a bit more than half" of total sales of new Xbox consoles in the US.

The Series S jumped out to a bigger lead over the Series X in part because of the constrained supply of the Series X earlier in its lifecycle. Price is also a major factor.
