Microsoft Xbox Controller

Now Apple deals Microsoft Xbox Controller on its official website.

Apple starts offering Xbox controllers on its e-shop. The new iOS version also makes the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch compatible with Xbox and PlayStation controllers.

Apple also sells Office licenses to its customers, and Microsoft develops applications for iPhone and even offers to download iTunes on Windows.


This means, the presence of the Microsoft controller on the Apple e-shop is also based on the fact that the two companies are very close to each other.


The firm wants to assert its new position by offering its customers to acquire video game controllers directly from its website.


With this step, Apple is aiming to increase its user base on the gaming platform, Apple Arcade. Apple Arcade was recently rolled out on the company’s App Store.


The controllers can be paired to Apple’s devices over Bluetooth and then be used in any games that support them.


Xbox and PlayStation controllers are offered at a price of 59.99 € on the Apple website.


Apple says in the description of the controller in the Apple Store,

“Experience the enhanced comfort and feel of the new Xbox Wireless Controller, featuring a sleek, streamlined design and textured grip. Its Bluetooth connectivity lets you play your favorite games on an iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. The controller also offers up to twice the wireless range and the convenience of 3.5mm stereo headset jack for connecting any compatible headset.”

It would be interesting to see that if Apple manages to sell any of the Xbox Controllers from its Official site, as e-commerce websites such as Amazon and Flipkart both are already selling this product at comparatively lower rates.
