  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nIf you're in need of a new wireless controller for your Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, or PC **— look no further than Amazon's Spring Deal Days sale**. Order before **11:59pm on March 16** and secure a new accessory at a fraction of the price.\n\nYou can save up to £13 on a new controller — including vibrant finishes like **Deep Pink** , **Electric Volt** , and **Shock Blue. **Unfortunately, these limited edition colourways haven't _quite_ managed to secure the all-time discount, which is still held by its Black Friday sale last year.\n\nYou can also get the standard **Carbon Black** on sale for £49.99 — was £59.99.\n\nOver 1,000 shoppers have added these versatile controllers to their baskets within the last month, which can also be paired with iPads and Apple TVs to play console-quality titles like _Call of Duty, Resident Evil: Village,_ and _Death Stranding_ __ from the App Store or game-streaming services like Xbox Game Pass, which is also **available on Fire TV Sticks** — transforming these popular dongles into consoles.\n\nMicrosoft has released **a flurry of different shades of its Xbox Series wireless controllers** since the latest console generation was announced back in November 2020.\n\n### Save up to £13 on new Xbox controllers from Amazon\n\n\n\n\nIf you're happy with the standard **Carbon Black,** Amazon's Spring Deal Days is the perfect opportunity to upgrade to a brand-new Xbox wireless controller from Microsoft. With an RRP of £59.99, Amazon has slashed the price down to £49.99 — a 17% discount. You can also save up to £13 now, with vibrant colours such as Deep Pink, Pulse Red, and Shock Blue. But you'll need to add these controllers to your basket soon, Amazon's latest sale ends on **March 16.**\n\n[countdown-2026-03-17]\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nWith its ergonomic design, Xbox wireless controllers have become a go-to option for PC gamers.\n\nWith wireless connectivity and Bluetooth pairing, they can be paired with multiple devices — like a Meta Quest 3 and Xbox Series S — at the same time. These controllers boast textured grips on triggers and bumpers for improved grip, alongside a hybrid d-pad ideal for retro gaming.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nA built-in headphone jack lets you connect headphones and microphones for online multiplayer.\n\nXbox wireless controllers use 2x AA batteries, with the option to use a rechargeable battery pack. While every other controller has moved to a sealed design with a built-in lithium-ion battery cell, Microsoft has stuck to its guns — offering the players the chance to swap-out batteries so downtime between recharges is mere seconds. It also means that, should the battery deteriorate inside the controller, it doesn't write-off the entire controller, like you might find with the latest from Sony PlayStation and Nintendo.",
