USB-C cables

That's because pc gamer forgot a certain detail

Xbox one gen 2 and older controllers use micro USB

Gen 3 which are series s/x controllers with backwards compatibility uses usb type c

You are mixing the old gen with current gen controllers

The reason why is because of the speed of the charging and following universal standards as per the current regulations in most countries over charging

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.

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.

the plug n play charge battery is the same for both, it is the charging cable that is different. the series x version comes with a USB C cable and the standard xbox one comes with a micro usb cable.

i couldnt get the usb c version for my series controller so i just bought the xbox one version and use a third party usb c cable for charging.

Good question. I believe the controller will be able to connect with either USB A or C depending on the cable most likely, but it may be just a USB C - USB C connection.
