Sometimes you just want to use an Xbox controller with your PC. Whether you prefer the feel of the controller over a mouse and keyboard or simply want to enjoy a more console-like gaming experience on your computer, connecting an Xbox controller to your PC is a simple process.

  1. Press the Windows key and type 'Bluetooth' until search brings up the 'Bluetooth & other devices settings' option. Click on this option to open the settings menu.

  • Turn on your Xbox controller by pressing the Xbox button in the center of the controller.

  • On your PC, click on 'Add Bluetooth or other device' and select 'Bluetooth'.

  • Your PC will search for available Bluetooth devices. When your Xbox controller appears in the list, select it to pair the two devices.

  • Once paired, your Xbox controller should now be connected to your PC and ready to use for gaming.

  • Which controller are you using for PC? I noticed a little rattle in mine when the haptic feedback vibrations activate. This is a common issue with Xbox controllers, but it doesn't affect the overall performance of the controller.

    The Xbox One controller is highly regarded as the best in the biz, and for good reason. It's comfortable to hold, has responsive buttons, and offers excellent haptic feedback. If you want to use an Xbox controller on Android, you can easily connect it via Bluetooth or a USB cable.
