In the next few weeks Microsoft will start phasing out the 250GB Xbox 360’s outer glossy shell in favor of the ubercool matte finish that can be found on the 4GB models. So, start saying goodbye to glossy fingerprints and hello to your new friend matte.
Major Nelson recently took to his blog announcing the news amid apparent speculation that the pricier variant would actually be offered in both flavors. If you’re a fan of shiny things — and a lover of fingerprints — Major says you’ll still have time to pick one up as stock is shuffled, and also noted there’ll probably be glossy limited editions in the future.
RIP glossy Xbox 360 shell, our fingerprints shall never be the same!
