I donвЂ™t currently have an Xbox One gamepad at hand so I canвЂ™t compare directly (I did have one some time ago, but somehow lost it after I discovered one of the analog sticks was drifting). Differences Between This and the Xbox One Controller

IвЂ™m frankly not sure if battery packs for the Xbox One are compatible with this new controller, but I know this battery pack in particular will work.

Like the DualSense, the Series X pad comes with a USB-C connection for wired connectivity or for charging if youвЂ™ve got a battery pack.

So, if youвЂ™re reading this, and you have Windows or an Xbox, let me know your thoughts about this review in the comments, and maybe IвЂ™ll send you the code. The Game Pass is pretty useless to me, since the Pass only works with the Windows Store.

Two Duracell batteries are included with the box, including a Quick Start guide with pictures, a Product and Regulatory guide, and a Xbox Game Pass code thatвЂ™s good for two weeks. I found it a little funny the controller still uses traditional AA batteries. On the other hand, it may be a bit of a problem if youвЂ™re a late-night gamer and donвЂ™t want to bother anyone else who is trying to rest. You might like the clicky-ness to let you know you hit a button. Whether you see that as a good thing or not, it doesnвЂ™t make much of a difference to me. IвЂ™ve noticed the buttons are very clicky and make quite the sound when pressing them. However, in the center of the four face buttons is a color-coding guide - so thereвЂ™s a red dot next to B, a green dot above A, etc.

The face buttonsвЂ™ labels - only on the Blue edition - are blue instead of color-coded. Their idea is to вЂњensure they didnвЂ™t change things just for the sake of change building on the Xbox One controller in smart, evolutionary ways while ensuring the muscle memory players have built up over the years remains intact.вЂќ However, it does feature some subtle changes, which I will get into a little later on, that Microsoft deems as an overall enhancement to a controller they didnвЂ™t want to change too much. This controller is going to look very similar to the Xbox One gamepad: two clickable thumbsticks, a D-pad, the A, B, X, and Y buttons, a BACK button and a START button, two shoulder buttons and two triggers, a proprietary connection port on the bottom (likely used for charging batteries), a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a slot to put in either AA batteries or a battery pack. I might just take the back shell off and spray paint it a different color. If I had known that ahead of time I wouldвЂ™ve just got the White edition. Something I didnвЂ™t notice until after I ordered was also the fact that the blue color is only applied to the front of the controller. Unlike the DualSense and the one white color that you can get with it, you have three different color choices when getting the Series X pad:ДЇor some reason, the Blue edition, which I ordered, is $5 more expensive than the White or Black editions. I was hoping to have this review out sooner, but because I realized I needed some more equipment in addition to the controller, I had no choice but to wait until that equipment was delivered to me by mail. Naming aside, letвЂ™s take a look at the new Series X pad that came out last week on Tuesday, and discover its flaws strengths, as far as Linux is concerned. To make it even more confusing, the name that they put on their new controller on both the device itself and the box that it comes with is simply вЂњXbox.вЂќ First, you have the Xbox One, then the Xbox One X, the Xbox One S, and now the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. The names Microsoft gives to their products is a bit confusing. After unboxing the Series X controller, I realized I might be a bit of a controller freak:
