Looking at the market, I think we can all agree where Microsoft is heading:

The XBOX COPILOT, the new handheld PC powered by AI!

XboX ActiveX XP CoPilot 360-365.NET 2025 Pro Azure Edition

Not to be confused with Entra (formerly Azure AD) Edition

But that's my lived experience. I play Xbox games with friends who are playing on an Xbox console, but I'm playing on my Windows-based Legion Go or my Windows PC on a desk at home or even cloud rendered through a web browser on a Linux box.

Xbox isn't just a single physical hardware device. Its a platform for playing games.

I do agree though, the naming patterns for their consoles has been absolutely atrocious. I consider myself somewhat of a gamer but if you just gave me the list of consoles there's absolutely a non-zero chance I'd fail at picking the rankings of performance and age.
