    Xbox One controller will not connect to console


    Hi,

    I am having issues with connecting my controller to the Xbox one console. I have had the is xbox for a couple of years and had no issues with it until in recent months.

    Whenever I turn on my xbox, the controller will work only for a couple of seconds until it randomly disconnects. Then, it will never try to reconnect even when I try syncing it. When I do try to sync it, the console light does not flash when I press the
    sync button, but the controller does.

    I have tried power cycling, swapping to several controllers, replacing batteries, and wiring the controller directly to the xbox. I managed to do a factory reset and the controller connected to the console, but hours later the problem proceeded again. I
    have noticed the issue begins whenever I am away and the controller automatically turns off.

    Most of the time it resolves itself (I dont know how) but this issue has gotten worse and more frequent since when it

    started happening.

    What can i do to resolve this issue?

    Thanks

    -B

    :)

    About the controller connection

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. That is a great question. The console allows up to eight wireless controllers to connect to the console. The article entitled, "Connect
    a wireless Xbox One controller to your console
    " contains information about the Xbox One controllers. The article states, "You can connect up to eight wireless controllers to a console." We hope this helps!

    Does the Xbox One S console have Bluetooth Capability? I.E Bluetooth Headsets

    There is no Bluetooth radio component in the Xbox One S console itself.

    The controllers connect to the Xbox One S the same way the controllers connect to the original Xbox One: proprietary RF. You could technically connect an Xbox One S controller to an original Xbox One, and an original Xbox controller to the Xbox One S.

    The Bluetooth functionality in the new Xbox One S controller is specifically made for connecting the controller to a Windows 10 PC with the "Anniversary" update, which has the drivers needed for the controller when connected via Bluetooth.

    Are xbox one controllers the same as xbox one s controllers?

    You can use a regular Xbox One controller on an Xbox One S console, and you can use an Xbox One S controller on a regular Xbox One console.

    All controllers connect to the Xbox console the same way, via proprietary RF.

    If you are confused because of the addition of Bluetooth in the Xbox One S, just know that Bluetooth is only built into the Xbox One S controller (there is actually no bluetooth functionality in the Xbox One S console itself). The Bluetooth in the controller
    is just a secondary method of wireless connectivity designed solely for connecting the controller to a Windows 10 PC via Bluetooth (without the need of a
    USB adapter). It connects to the Xbox One/One S the same way as the original controllers do.
