    Is it OK to use a USB-C to USB-C cable with an Xbox controller on PC?


    All the USB-A ports on the back of my PC are in use, but I do have a free USB-C port. Would it be safe to get a cable with USB-C on both ends and use it with my controller?

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello EightDeer, you can use this USB port from your PC without any problems.

    The only thing that is not advisable to do with the control is to use it connected to a mobile phone charger, because there may be voltage spikes and damage your equipment and the control is not prepared for this.

    Electric Volt controller connect to Win10 via cable

    Hi,

    Almost any USB C to USB A cable (your standard USB Phone/tablet charge cable) will work fine for PC or console gaming with a Series X type controller. I use a 2M USB C cable to connect my Series X controller to my PC.

    I don't have any Bluetooth issues, but using a cable does avoid changing the batteries so much. 😁

    what cable do I need to recharge my Xbox X batteries

    To recharge your Xbox Series X batteries, you need a USB-C to USB-A or USB-C to USB-C cable, depending on your battery charging port. The Xbox Series X comes with a USB-C port on the front of the console that you can use to charge your devices, including controllers. If your batteries have a USB-C connector, you will need a USB-C to USB-C cable. If your batteries have a USB-A connector, you will need a USB-C to USB-A cable. Make sure the cable is of good quality to ensure safe and efficient charging.

    Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

    About the cable connection of the elite 2 controller

    The controller has an USB Type C to A cable included in the box. The cable is backwards compatible to USB 2.0.

    But you can also use your own USB A to C cable if you want.
