Today, Lenovo is matching the lowest price I saw for an Xbox Series X|S wireless controller on Black Friday. Right now you can get one in either Carbon Black or Robot White for only $34.99 when you apply coupon code “SHOPXMAS“. These controllers are compatible with Xbox Series X and S and PC.
Xbox Controllers for $34.99
Aesthetics aside, these Xbox wireless controllers are identical to the one that’s bundled with the Xbox Series X and S console. Standard features include textured grips, hybrid D-pad, button mapping with the Xbox app, a 3.5mm audio jack that works with any wired headset, and a Share button to upload screenshots and video.
The controller supports both Xbox wireless and Bluetooth connectivity. That means you can use it for your PC or mobile device. In fact, we think this is the the best PC controller you can get. If your PC doesn’t have Bluetooth, you can still use it in wired mode with a USB Type-C cable or go out and buy a Bluetooth or Xbox wireless adapter.
3 Months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for $28.99
On a related note, Woot! currently has an excellent deal on Xbox Game Pass: Get three months of Game Pass Ultimate, which usually costs $19.99 monthly, for only $28.99 after you apply coupon code “GAMEPASS“. This sale ends on December 13. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate gives you access to a library of hundreds of Xbox games, including day one releases. If you don’t own a console and don’t want to pay for one, there’s even a legitimate way to play Game Pass games without an Xbox. Although you do lose access to the library once your membership is over, all your past achievements and progress will be saved. New release games are not cheap, and being able to play them at launch without paying retail price for them will save you a lot of money. This perk alone will easily recoup the cost of the membership.
Other benefits include access to Xbox Game Pass for PC, exclusive membership discounts, Xbox Cloud Gaming, a bonus EA Play subscription, extra in-game content and rewards, and more.
