The latest version of the Xbox controller—the one included with the Xbox One S and the upcoming One X—includes Bluetooth! Microsoft finally included Bluetooth along with the older proprietary Xbox wireless connection, so Windows users can hook it up without an extra dongle. Here's how to connect it to your Bluetooth-equipped laptop or desktop. Connect the micro-USB end of the cable into your remote. If you have an Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 or an Xbox Adaptive Controller, plug the USB-C end of the cable into your controller. The controller does not need batteries if you use a cable. Step one: Connect your USB cable to your powered-on Windows computer; Step two: Connect the Micro USB end to your Xbox One controller.; Step three: Press the Xbox logo on your controller to turn.
