Yes, I use it on my PC wired to play Xbox and steam games. You can also use it with Bluetooth but it felt to me like there was some loss of responsiveness (so I continue to use it wired.)

On a different note, make sure your hands are clean when you use the thumbsticks. I love the Electric Volt color, but due to the light color the rubberized thumbsticks are stain magnets.

If I did it over again, I'd get a darker color.

Is it a common problem with buttons sticking on the Xbox? One of mine just started sticking. Otherwise love the controller. Gonna grab this to replace that, but hope it's not a common problem.

After all the issues I've had with the PS5 controller with drift it's frustrating to have a sticking button. At least this is a lot cheaper (and more comfortable) than the PS5 controller. Sony is out of their mind.

I went through multiple Xbox series controllers they are rock solid, elite 2 on other hand buttons sticking is a common issue and sometimes out of the box

You can get a Xbox controller dongle and it makes the responsiveness a lot better. It's like using the controller on the console but they also sell it as a bundle on Microsoft. You can find the dongle alone on Amazon

Yes, but you can use almost any wireless controller with BT with a deck (or most handhelds, even a Nintendo switch).

Xbox updated the controllers a while back so they have Bluetooth mode. (you hold the pairing button a second time and the sync light blinks twice as fast when it's in BT mode)

Tip: if it doesn't work once you get it connected, go to setting and the controllers section and change the controller from 2 to position 1. It will sometimes think you are using the desk for player 1 even though it's docked

I second the dongle recommendation. It's annoying to plug one more thing into your PC, but dramatically ups reliability and responsiveness, IMHO.

It normally sells for $25 but is currently on-sale at Walmart for $20 (plus another 5% off if using Discover until end of month):

You can also find used or off-brand ones on eBay for half-as-much, but I don't have any personal experience with that.

If you want to update the firmware on your XBox controllers you will have to install the XBox Accessories app onto a PC and plug your controller in via wire. You can read about some of the benefits here:

https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2021/...ing-today/

Since I have the dongle I haven't tried the BT collection after firmware update... but maybe someone with experience can say if it is good enough to forego the dongle?
