RRP £49.99. Cheapest I've found and it's ever been. Bluetooth and PC compatible makes it more than worth it. Might get cheaper later on but if you can't wait like me get this.

Got this working with my lenova yoga 2 via bluetooth. Took a bit of fiddling but playing emulated mariokart on the pad made i all worth it. Delivered by sainsburys with some free shopping as detailed earlier in thread.

I was looking forward to the release of this controller, as I play on PC and a bluetooth adapter is much cheaper than the rip off £18-20 wireless adapter for the other controller.
But the controller is £15 more expensive than the old controller anyway, so it's a pretty poor deal. Pay £15 extra on each controller so I can save £15 by buying a £5 bluetooth dongle instead of the £18.50 microsoft wireless dongle. I don't know what I expected from Microsoft.

yes the dongle is expensive but its excellent , its not skipped a beat for me . Simple plug and play and the range etc. is so much better than the old 360 dongle .

heat.
I don't need one for now as pc has the wireless dongle thingy for the xbox one pad.
Maybe pick one up in the future.
Oh and it does work with android

The new pad still works with the wireless dongle thingy, No need for blueteeth :man: you just need to pair the pad to the dongle.

Can you connect to the xbox using Bluetooth? I get issues with the controller signal through a wall.

How the heck is this a hot deal, it's RRP! Not only that it isn't a special 'limited edition' variant.

That's not correct, the controller thankfully still connects to the console via the Xbox wireless protocol.
The new Xbox One S doesn't have Bluetooth built in.
Bluetooth is only used for connecting to PC's/phones.

Excellent, wasn't really needing a new controller, but now I have one and some Sainbury's shopping coming too. :smile:

No, it does have a textured grip of sorts but it's very minimal you hardly notice it's there. It's nothing like the grip on the Forza pad, lunar white or Elite controller.

Anyone know if it works on iOS devices? Google brings up lots of people talking about it before it came out but can't seem to find anyone trying it now that it's out.

Would this work with an android tablet now it's got bluetooth?

I wish Sony put more effort into the PS4 controller. The Xbox ones have been superior since the 360 days. Hopefully the Neo will come with a revised one.

The description on Amazon says about the textured back.

The pictures on Amazon don't show a grip on the back, do you mean it has the same texture as the lunar white controller?

I personally think it feels a bit cheap and plasticy, the face buttons are a little squishy, sticks feel a little loose and the "grip" is almost non-existent. I haven't tried the Bluetooth, I tend to run a cable to the pc. The lunar white is way superior if you can find one, I use it more than the elite. Just my two-pennies worth. :man:

Why are people talking about this controller like it's brand new, did they change it in some way? I thought it was the exact same one as they've been selling, just in white?

It's got gripped back on it, Bluetooth, slimmer and more comfatable Shape. It's wayyyyy better then the other Xbox one controller.

New grip on back, Bluetooth built in, bigger range for the Xbox, new more durable grip on thumbsticks

I got this with my XBOX S, they also gave me another controller for £30 the same type. It is good but I am yet to use it for other devices. Not convinced with the grip though. Would have been better with more grip but I guess would have worn down over usage if was rubber.

No, it's cheaper at Shopto. Which funnily enough managed a earth moving -34 degrees. Go figure.

I still prefer my dualshock 4 as it feels more comfortable in my hands but after getting a one s and two of these last week I can see what all the fuss is about with xbox controllers.
Heat for the price and quality.

Got this controller with my One S. Massive upgrade over the 360 pad and Dualshock 4.
I've used the Elite pad as well and if you can spare the extra £50 for that I would say go for it. If not the S pad is the best you'll get for £45.
