    Xbox One Wireless Controller Batterystatus

    Well, the Xbox 360 use to show battery status when you pressed the guide button, so the most logical place to implement it, would be within the Game Bar, that's used now when you press the Guide button on the XBox One Controller.

    Any indicator would at least warn you, currently if your battery is low the controller just Shuts off, no warning.

    It blows my mind that wireless controller for windows is such an after thought, they would overlook something like Battery Status.

    Low battery warning in Windows

    Salutations,

    I use the wireless Xbox One controller with the USB dongle

    (which btw is extremely oversized compared to the Steam dongle, not to mention the Logitech ones).

    Using the Windows 10 app Xbox Accessories I can check the battery level to a certain extent

    (it shows a battery bar and a vague description, no percentages).

    However, there is absolutely no low battery level warning!

    On the Steam controller the button with the logo on it would flash
    if it was near death but the only way the Xbox controller tells you is by
    instantly turning off
    . Something that is highly frustrating when playing a ranked multiplayer game.

    Is there any way to get a similar warning as the Steam controller for low battery level, or at least some sort of software popup?

    Cheers.

    How much power supply does Xbox series s need?

    It's the battery level for an Xbox Wireless the controller. The controllers can also be used via a USB cable also. When controller is wireless, the battery level for the controller will appear on the dashboard.

    No Wireless-Support on Windows 11 for Xbox Series X Controller (with Share-Button)

    Hello,

    Same problem here...

    Xbox x series controller with xbox wireless adapter for windows 10 version 2.

    Device manager shows xinput compatible device and also at bluetooth and other devices.

    There is no battery indicator shows, only at the game bar.

    The game bar unfortunately only shows the words: low - medium and full and no percentage.

    It's really ****.
