Behind the acquisition of Activision BlizzardMicrosoft is now throwing the house out of the window at the marketing level with their Xbox Series X|S consoles for Christmas. For this, Xbox has made a large investment in the well-known Sphere. Located in Las Vegas, the Sphere is a sphere formed with a million LED panels. Basically it is an orb created with millions of LEDs to transform it into an unprecedented screen.
This sphere has dimensions of 157 x 112 meters highand comes to life through none other than 1.2 million LED panels. Taking into account that each panel uses 48 individual LEDs, we are talking about a sphere-shaped screen made up of 57,600,000 LEDs. If we talk about price, the Sphere had a manufacturing cost of 2.3 billion dollars. Well, this is where Xbox has begun to advertise its products.
