'Sleek and refined' Xbox wireless controller in 6 colours now on offer on Amazon
The colourful controllers have been slashed by varying percentages on the retailer's website.
A gamer's most important tool, a good controller is of the highest importance for Xbox users- but along with practicality, a colourful controller can add a piece of personal style to any gaming set-up. And luckily, Amazon is currently offering generous discounts on a range of wireless Xbox remotes.
The discounted Xbox controllers come in black, pink, red, white, blue and green, and Amazon also offers another black remote that comes with a USB-C cable for charging. Usually varying between £55-£60, all the colour options are currently on offer.
The black remote that comes with a USB-C cable is currently 27 per cent off, reduced from £54.55 to £39.95. The Carbon Black controller is now 34 per cent off at £35.99, the Deep Pink remote is 31 per cent off at £40.49, and the Pulse Red Series X controller is 38 per cent off at £40.49.
The white controller is down by 40 per cent to £35.99, the Shock Blue has been slashed by 38 per cent to £40.49, and the green controller is 26 per cent off at £40.49.
All the colour options and prices can be explored here.
The black controller's product description on Amazon reads: "Experience the modernized design of the Xbox Wireless Controller - Carbon Black, featuring sculpted surfaces and refined geometry for enhanced comfort and effortless control during gameplay.
"Stay on target with textured grip on the triggers, bumpers, and back case and with a new hybrid D-pad for accurate, yet familiar input. Make the controller your own by customizing button mapping with the Xbox Accessories app."
Those browsing alternative options for colourful Xbox controllers may opt for the Xbox Series X & S Wireless Controller in the colour Astral Purple, which is now on offer for £44.99.
Argos also offers the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 in red for a more expensive £124.99.
But the Amazon options are raking in the positive reviews.
One happy shopper deemed it the 'best controller ever', saying: "The feel is great and it's a good value for money with the compatibility being great and the size is perfect to fit into ur hands and the weight is just perfect not to heavy and not to light and it's so waxy to use and compatibility is so easy for travel."
Another said: "Very nice controllers. They work perfectly with Steam and we've been using them to play through Steam link with a fire stick, and it just works perfect.
"Will definitely buy more when the other two of them stop working."
But not everyone is a fan of the Xbox controllers.
A less happy gamer said: "I had this controller for about 3 months and the the right bumper broke so I had to get a replacement. The replacement controller that was sent was a second hand one.
"I only used it once and after that it appeared to have a stick drift. I am very disappointed with the quality. I need to send it back again and hope there is still warranty on it."
A happier shopper added: "The Xbox Wireless Controller in Carbon Black is a sleek and refined iteration of a classic design, maintaining the high standards set by its predecessors while introducing subtle improvements that enhance the overall gaming experience."
The discounted Xbox controllers can be browsed on Amazon.
