EDIT: Rumor no more. Only hours after the leak, Microsoft has confirmed that the Series S is real and that it will launch at $299. They are calling it the "smallest Xbox ever".

Some more stuff leaked via the Verge:
Opinions: Now we can clearly see that it has no disc drive. It's also quite small. Looks like it's barely taller than two of those controllers. If this thing really does pack more power (rumored specs linked in a post below) than the XBX than the form factor is pretty nice. Interesting that they're talking about RT and 4K upscaling. Targeting 1440p is higher than I expected, though I have doubts about "up to 120 fps". That 512GB SSD feels too small for a digital only console. People are either going to need to do a ton of storage management or invest in those, likely expensive, custom add-on drives.
From original post:
Seems like Windows Central is jumping on the leak bandwagon tonight. They previously leaked out accurate Series X specs. Per their article:
November 10th launch for the Series S and Series X.
$499 for the Series X. Both systems will also be part of Microsoft's All Access monthly payment program. $25 a month for the S and $35 a month for the X.
