Few days ago, we came to know that over 3 million Xbox One units have been sold. Now according to new report, Xbox One was the best selling console in United States in the month of December. A total of 908,000 Xbox One units were sold in December. That is about one million units alone in December in United States. Moreover 643,000 units of Xbox 360 units were sold too.
