"That's where having an extra Xbox controller becomes essential and right now, Microsoft is practically giving them away: The 2025 Carbon Black edition (and many more colors) has dropped to just $49 on Amazon, down from its usual $64 price tag. This is a record low that didn't even happen during Prime Day, which tells you Microsoft is seriously clearing inventory."
"This single controller does it all seamlessly between Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Windows PCs, Android smartphones and tablets, iOS smartphones and tablets, FireTV Sticks, Smart TVs, and yes, VR headsets too. By being cross-platform, you're not bound to just a single ecosystem. Need to continue your game session on your laptop when someone prefers to use the TV? Just sync the controller via Bluetooth (which does it in a few seconds) and you're good to continue."
"Special mention must go to the battery life since this directly affects how you play games: It uses two AA batteries and provides you with about 40 hours of play time before replacement which translates to just over two months of moderate usage. It lasts longer than many rechargeable controllers that lose capacity after a year. You can, of course, use rechargeable"
The 2025 Carbon Black Xbox controller is available on Amazon for $49, reduced from $64, marking a record low price as Microsoft clears inventory. The matte Carbon Black finish resists fingerprints, and the ergonomic shape and textured grips on the back and triggers improve comfort and control during long sessions. The controller pairs quickly via Bluetooth and supports Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Windows PCs, Android and iOS devices, FireTV, Smart TVs, and VR headsets, with a wireless range up to 30 feet. It runs on two AA batteries for roughly 40 hours of playtime and accepts rechargeable batteries.
