The Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 is a solid choice for Xbox gamers, regardless of your system of choice, as it works with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10 or 11 devices via Xbox Wireless or Bluetooth is compatible. There’s also an option to connect it with the included USB-C cord. You can swap out parts like the D-pad and paddles, save up to three unique profiles to the controller, and explore button mapping options through the Xbox Accessories app. It also has up to 40 hours of battery life.

Microsoft’s Xbox Wireless Headset is also on sale, down from $100 to $85 – 15 percent off. The headphones are compatible with the same system as the Xbox wireless controller, such as the Xbox Series X|S. Additional features include auto-mute, voice isolation, and up to 15 hours of battery life. The headphones feature surround sound technologies such as Dolby Atmos and Windows Sonic, with volume control dials located on the left earcup.

The wireless headset is still $40 more than its wired counterpart, but if free movement is important to you, the discount certainly helps. If you’re looking to update all of your accessories for summer, the sale brings the total price of the wireless headset and controller to $230 — saving you $50 overall.
