    Microsoft Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows

    • You may want to wait until they update it some more or stick with a wired XBox One controller connection, which has worked flawlessly so far.
    • After the driver installed, I did restart my computer before trying to use the controller.• Controller works fine at least 15 feet away from the dongle

    • Currently using this so I can play games on my pc using a xbox one controller, and it works great.
    • Configuring my Xbox One Wireless controller was easy.
    • Not all controller features available on Windows 7 and 8.1.
    • Makes playing games with an xboxnone controller on PC much easier
    • I love the xbox one controllers so this is a great investment
    • Makes using an Xbox1 controller super easy and works like a charm!
    • I wish it also supported the old 360 controllers, but you can't have everything.
    • If you have the cash I would gladly recommend an Xbox One controller for PC gaming over a Dualshock 4, because in addition to the better compatibility you get other features like support for the headset / headphones jack and chatpad support
    • So aggravating, because when it works it's hands down the best controller you buy on the PC (sorry Steam controller, you're a close second, but only for games that don't traditionally use a controller).
    • Hopefully Microsoft addresses that bug because their controller is worthless in my opinion if used over Bluetooth.

    • It also supports up to 8 controllers I think which is more than anyone will need
    • Works perfectly to make Xbox Elite Controller wireless with Windows 10.
    • I'm hopeful that as more products arrive for HTPC gaming this current niche will hopefully share the market with the over-zealous, over-competitive, fandom that has become PC gaming, to make room for less competitive gaming and a more relaxed and calming experience with "controller friendly" online sessions and other experiences to come that currently feel more like compromises than enjoyable pastimes.

    • The price is fair-No lag, even with a FPS-Adapter turns on when your controller turns on (when pre connected)Cons:-Adapter can take up more than one port, depending on your USB layout-The connecting process is sort of a pain, because it turns on your Xbox One (if you have one) when you first try to connect them-You can't turn off the controller/disconnect from the adapter without taking out either the batteries of the controller or unplug the
    • After updating my Bluetooth driver and my controller, this attachment worked great; however, some days when I want to use it, my controller would disconnect and reconnect every few seconds
    • I only use the Xone controller on my pc, kb/mouse = unfun chore so have been waiting for wireless option for awhile

    • With the improved functionality from Windows 10, I'm using my Xbox One controller for PC more than ever and after killing one controller and one play-and-charge cable because the play-and-charge connection on these controllers is ridiculously fragile, I couldn't wait for these to come out

    • upgraded the PC controller to a fancy new XB1 wireless controller.
