You forgot to mention that it runs on AA batteries instead of a built in batteries that allow you to simply charge the controller.
Truly an outdated design that would force me to manage a fleet of rechargeable batteries, something I have zero desire for.
- herrherrmann 3y agoRunning on standard replaceable batteries is definitely a feature and not an “outdated design”, especially when it comes to sustainability. And for some devices you can also have both replaceable batteries and charging ports (e.g. some cameras offer that). But yeah, I guess wireless Xbox controllers can’t be charged directly.
- donatj 3y agoHaving both, I strongly prefer being able to quickly swap in some new rechargeable double A's versus having to plug in a 15 ft cord from my system to my controller on the couch. I find the latter such a hassle that when my PlayStation controller dies I stop playing.
