To be fair, Microsoft announced their third XBox price hike today.

> The price of XBOX consoles will increase by US$100 for 512 GB models and US$150 for 1 TB models. We will also be sunsetting our 2 TB model.

This is in addition to the other two recent price hikes.

And it isn’t the 1st time they increased it, also PlayStation.

Microsoft said ram/storage increased prices 2.5x since late 25 and they expect it to increase another 2.5x by late 27.

This isn't immediate though, it's from August

1.16x simple mean on XBOX 1.22x simple mean on Apple

Closer than I expected, but some products are quite the outliers. E.g. Apple TV is 1.54x. That's gotta hurt.
