This screen turns your Xbox Series S into a portable console

With the xScreen, you won't need Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to play your favorite games on the go.

What you need to know

• xScreen attaches to your Xbox Series S, turning it into a portable console.
• It features an integrated battery and built-in speakers.
• It will launch on Kickstarter some time this summer for $249.

A new way to play Xbox games on the go will launch this summer. It's called xScreen, and it's a portable screen that you can attach to the Xbox Series S. The screen will launch on Kickstarter this summer. You can sign up on the official xScreen website to register your interest.

xScreen has an 11.6-inch 1080p IPS display with a refresh rate of 60Hz. The display can close to lay flush against the Xbox Series S, somewhat like a laptop. According to UPspec, the company behind xScreen, you won't need any additional cables to attach the xScreen to your console. It also has integrated power, though the exact size of the battery isn't specified.

The xScreen only weighs 695 g, which sounds light until you realize that figure only includes the xScreen itself. The Xbox Series S weighs 1.93 kg (4.25 lbs). That means in total, the xScreen with an Xbox Series S weighs 2.63 kg (5.79 lbs). That's heavier than the best gaming laptops, but you could probably carry it in a backpack.

As xScreen is a Kickstarter project, it should be taken with a grain of salt. You should do your own research before investing in any Kickstarter project, as final products may vary from what you see in promotional material.

The xScreen has an early bird discount at the moment. The full retail price of the xScreen is $249.

If you'd like to game on the go and have a good mobile internet connection, you may prefer to try Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. The subscription allows you to play games on your Xbox console, mobile phone, and PC.
