With wireless connectivity and Bluetooth pairing, they can be paired with multiple devices — like a Meta Quest 3 and Xbox Series S — at the same time. These controllers boast textured grips on triggers and bumpers for improved grip, alongside a hybrid d-pad ideal for retro gaming.

Xbox wireless controllers use 2x AA batteries, with the option to use a rechargeable battery pack. While every other controller has moved to a sealed design with a built-in lithium-ion battery cell, Microsoft has stuck to its guns — offering the players the chance to swap-out batteries so downtime between recharges is mere seconds. It also means that, should the battery deteriorate inside the controller, it doesn't write-off the entire controller, like you might find with the latest from Sony PlayStation and Nintendo.
