Top BDI TV Stands for PS5 and Xbox Series X Consoles
The gaming industry witnessed a staggering $180 billion in revenue in 2020, with the largest demographic falling between the ages of 18 to 34, closely followed by those aged 34 to 54. Gamers nowadays own a plethora of gaming devices and accessories, ranging from consoles and handhelds to ultrawide monitors, premium speakers, gaming headsets, and specially designed gaming chairs.
Proper storage and organization are paramount for gaming consoles, necessitating the search for the right cabinet to house, cool, and protect them. However, most media cabinets currently available are not designed with the dimensions and requirements of next-generation consoles in mind. With hardware enhancements like faster processors, increased RAM, ray-tracing, 4k gaming, and solid-state hard drives, these consoles are becoming bulkier and require a larger footprint.
The highly sought-after PlayStation 5 (PS5), for instance, is the largest console ever released, standing at least 15 inches tall, posing a unique storage challenge, especially in its vertical orientation. On the other hand, the Xbox Series X is also sizable, measuring almost 12 inches tall. Considering that many gamers own multiple consoles, having ample room for expansion becomes even more crucial. This is precisely why a media console with adjustable shelves and spacious interiors is indispensable for your next-gen gaming setup.
Fortunately, BDI’s Corridor, Align, and Elements TV stands and entertainment centers offer generous space for gaming setups, along with tech-driven features specifically tailored to safeguard your home theater and gaming gear.
