Xbox controllers have changed less and less with each generation. So much so that the newest model that launched with the Xbox Series X is nearly indistinguishable from the previous generation. Is this because of a lack on innovation on Microsoft’s part? Heck no, it’s the opposite. The Xbox controller has been perfected. There is no more room for innovation because it’s already the best controller on the market.
If you’re a PC gamer, you have a plethora of options to choose from for games that require a gamepad. You can go with a first party controller from PlayStation or Nintendo, or even a wide range of solid third party options. But there is no need, because the Xbox core controller is simply the best. The Xbox core controller is currently up to 30% off, now $45 down from $65.
Why’s it the Best?
The Xbox controller is sculpted with ergonomic flawlessness, comfortable to hold for long hours of playtime. The hybrid D-pad and textured grip on the triggers, bumpers, and back case provide tactile feedback while you game. The Xbox core controller supports Xbox Wireless as well as Bluetooth, allowing you to easily pair and switch between devices. That includes and Xbox console like the Series X | S or Xbox One as well as Windows PCs, Androids, iOS devices, and even a Samsung TV.
The color options are wonderful with but loud options like the sky cipher, vapor pink, or electric volt, but there’s also some more subtle choices available like the carbon black or the robot white.
The Xbox core controller may not have some of the bells and whistles that the PS5 DualSense has like a touchpad or adaptive triggers, but so few games even use those effectively. Plus it just skyrockets the price tag to cover the costs of these unnecessary features. Want to know what the craziest feature the Xbox core controller has? It’s the 3.5mm headset jack. That’s right, you can plug in any compatible headset to easily talk with friend over Xbox Live without the unreliability that wireless connections can sometimes cause. Good ol’ reliable AUX input. Oh how I love you.
The Xbox core controller is an an easy $65 when at full price, but right now it’s even discounted by 30%. That means it’s only $45 for the best console and PC controller on the market. The Shock Blue is currently going for the lowest price, but you’ll also find some pretty decent discounts on the Electric Volt and Robot White.
