• We recommend using an Xbox Wireless Controller connected via Bluetooth or a USB cable. Mouse and keyboard and touch are currently not supported for remote play gaming.
• The Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 isn't currently compatible with iOS.

Note Depending on your device manufacturer, wired controllers may or may not work with your device.

I'm sorry, but I don't think it's because of the console. Nowhere on the internet can I find anyone who says that it works great. All of reddit is full of comments that remote play only works in poor quality. You can not find a single video on YouTube that shows remote play in a good quality. Can you tell me 100% it is possible to stream in 1080p with 60 fps on ipad / pc / mobilphone?

Ty

All has been checked down the list. 873mbps

But yet remote playing on a Samsung s8+ the streaming quality is still horrible for 2023.

I am having the same issues. Amazon video is amazing quality but Netflix is 1-2 bars on average.
