generation, it'd be fair to say Xbox took an "if it ain't broke" approach. Microsoft's latest systems run the same UI, and they also work with the same controllers
from the Xbox One generation. There are slight changes to trigger stiffness and the overall weight, plus the inclusion of a dedicated button for capturing and sharing, but for many, the Xbox
pad is just about perfect. Why are we telling you this? Because you can save a third off the RRP at Amazon right now. SAVE BIG ON AN XBOX CONTROLLER AT AMAZON Over at Amazon, the Xbox
Wireless controller has dropped from £59.99 to £39.95, meaning you can get the pad for 33% off. There are multiple colourways available, but the Robot White looks to be the one with the best
discount at the time of writing. If you've ever held an Xbox controller before, it'll feel instantly familiar with its offset sticks, but the D-pad is much better than last
generation's. It still uses AA batteries, and while we'd prefer an internal battery like we get on PS5, there's no denying the Xbox controller lasts much, much longer for
marathon sessions. Perhaps its greatest strength is that it offers plug-and-play functionality on PC, letting you bring up the Xbox Game Bar with a press of the Xbox button. "Experience
the modernised design of the Xbox Wireless Controller in Robot White, featuring sculpted surfaces and refined geometry for enhanced comfort during gameplay with battery usage up to 40
hours," the product description explains. The share button is a new addition to the current generation of controller, and means you can snap screenshots or gameplay clips to share with
friends on Xbox and beyond. There are others with deals on Xbox controllers such as Argos, who have offers on a range of coloured controllers. Article continues below Looking for a great PS5
