Bluetooth Pairing - Xbox One Elite Controller

Brad,

AFAIK, the Xbox One Elite controller does not, at present, support Bluetooth connectivity. Only the Xbox One-S generation controllers currently support this feature.

The Elite controller can be used wirelessly on a Windows PC, but it requires the Xbox Wireless Adapter.

I've been wanting to purchase an Elite controller, but have been holding off to see if the hardware is updated with the Bluetooth support the new S-controllers have.

Hope this helps!

Regards,

Jason

 

Bluetooth Pairing - Xbox One Elite Controller

They never said it had Bluetooth in fact higher end gaming controllers like this will not or should not use Bluetooth naitively because it has more latency. The Xbox one elite controller's run on a Wi-Fi signal; the usb dongle converts that to Bluetooth
so you can connect that way over your computer if you want but it will be a slower connection which is why they're not going to put that technology in a highend controllers that are typically bought by hard core gamers who want the fastest response time, when
they can put it in their standard controllers at a cheaper price point.

Ps. Most people who spend 150 or more on one controller do research on its capabilities first I suggest you do that next time so you don't buy something that you regret that never claimed to have the feature you wanted it to have. Simply reading up on the
elite controller you wouldnt waste youre money.

Pss all elite controllers come with a usb dongle to use the controller on your pc. If you didnt get it contact the seller and get one. Problem solved.
