Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) is one of the Best Technology Stocks to Invest in for the Long Term. On September 19, Reuters reported that Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) announced a second price increase for its Xbox gaming consoles in the United States this year.

The change in prices reflects the rising costs caused by tariffs and supply chain issues, and the increased prices are expected to take effect on October 3. After the increase in prices, the one-terabyte Xbox Series S price will rise to about $450, the higher-end Series X will cost around $650, and the special edition two-terabyte Galaxy Black Series X will nearly reach $800.
