Does Dusk Shadow xbox one controller have Bluetooth?

I have a 2nd gen controller (Dusk Shadow with headphone socket, no Bluetooth) and this was the first thing I did as soon as this started to happen.

Connecting an Xbox One controller to the Samsung Gear VR or Galaxy S7 requires that your controller have Bluetooth.

The
Xbox One Copper Shadow controller does not feature Bluetooth.

So I tried plugging in a headphone/mic into the 3.5 mm port and it had the opposite effect: I could hear party chat but they couldn't hear me.

Then, for the hell of it, I removed that set and plugged the older headset in and all of a sudden party chat worked fine with the Dusk Shadow controller. I am now afraid of removing the headset so I have left it plugged in.

Seems strange that swapping headsets and ports worked. Its also strange that this fix worked with the other Dusk Shadow controller that was having the same issues.

Is there a batch of bad controllers out there that Amazon is selling?

Hello Shadow,

Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We understand you are having issue with controller. Here is a

guide for Bluetooth. There are pictures that show how to tell if your controller is Bluetooth or not. Not all Xbox controllers are Bluetooth.

On Bluetooth-supported controllers, the plastic around the Xbox button
 is part of the face of the controller. On controllers without Bluetooth, the plastic around the
Xbox button  is part of the top, where the bumpers are.

Thanks,

Brad

Hey Bumzilla! The Dusk Shadow controller should work like any other controller. Here at the forums we don't have the ability to see inventory for a retailer. If you feel like the controller is not working as it should, we would suggest getting replaced by
the retailer. Thanks!
