Our Take
The Xbox Wireless Controller in Electric Volt is Microsoft's standard wireless gamepad finished in a vivid yellow-green colourway. Compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows PC via Bluetooth or the Xbox Wireless protocol, it's aimed at existing Xbox owners wanting a second pad or a splash of personality without stepping up to the Elite range.
Key Features
Textured grip on the back of the casing for improved hold during extended sessions
Hybrid D-pad (faceted design) carried over from the Xbox Series X|S generation
3.5mm stereo headset jack on the underside for direct audio connection
Bluetooth and Xbox Wireless connectivity, compatible with PC, Android, and iOS
USB-C port for wired play and firmware updates via the Xbox Accessories app
Share button for one-press screenshot and video capture on compatible devices
Our Verdict
A solid choice for any Xbox or PC gamer who wants a reliable spare or second controller and fancies something beyond the standard black or white. If you need advanced features like adjustable triggers or built-in recharging, look at the Elite Series 2 or consider a third-party alternative with a rechargeable battery included.
