If there's an Xbox showing up under your tree and you're going to have more than one very eager gamer dying to get at it, we're about to save you from a potentially sticky situation. The Xbox consoles come with only one controller. Thankfully there's still time to get a second controller to avert the epic sibling clashes that come from attempts at sharing, and it's the 2025 model Xbox Wireless Gaming Controller in Carbon Black, on sale at Amazon for a sweet 42% off.

Logitech's new picks up where the last model left off, introducing haptic feedback, an improved sensor, customizable shortcuts, and the same utterly silent clicks the mouse is known for on an omni-compatible platform for Windows, MacOS, Linux, and ChromeOS. The 8,000 DPI sensor works on essentially any surface you'd use a mouse on (including that glass tabletop in your hotel room) with a large, comfortable form factor that fits the hand naturally.

What sets the G7 Pro apart is its versatility. With tri-mode connectivity, the controller adapts seamlessly to different platforms: wired play for Xbox, wired or 2.4G wireless connections for PC, and Bluetooth for Android. A physical mode switch streamlines these transitions, making the device as flexible as it is functional. The inclusion of a detachable cable retainer ensures stability during wired sessions, a small but essential detail for players who prize consistency under pressure.
