Whilst scouring through Currys' best Black Friday tech deals, I stumbled upon a new 'Xbox Mini' that made me stop in my tracks.
Well, I say 'new', but it's actually been around for a while – I'd just not crossed paths with it before now. And, to be clear, it's not actually an Xbox at all.
No, this is an Xbox Series X replica mini-fridge (well, technically it's a thermoelectic cooler – so good at keeping cold things cold, but not good at getting warm things to cool).
It's a Currys exclusive, too, and it's dropped by a third as part of the Black Friday sales – which are now in full effect across all retailers that take part.
If I bought one, the irony would be that it'd probably get more use than my actual Xbox Series X – as I wrote last year, that's been gathering dust (and I don't see that changing soon).
I've included Currys' own video about the product so you can get a closer look. The product is complete with on-brand black-and-green colours, so certainly fits the bill.
There's no super-powerful chip inside here, just space for your tinnies and snacks. You can store up to six 330ml cans, plus some additions. What a treat!
If you know any Xbox superfans then this is the sort of Christmas present comedy gold that I'm sure they'd appreciate as a gift.
For actual gaming deals, however, Xbox has lagged behind somewhat – it's the PS5 Pro deal that's been best of the sales, plus the Switch 2 with Mario Kart World that's had a decent reduction.
T3 will be covering the best Black Friday deals all weekend long, right through to the end of Cyber Monday on 1 December, so stay tuned for more top buys like this one.
