Also I wouldn't buy anything madcatz seems there stuff is just subpar like the cheap controllers that break in a few days of gaming..

Yeah the aftermarket controllers they make are trash but Madcatz TE Sticks and Headsets are really good.

IS it an aftermarket controller? In the recent update MS made it so the system automatically shuts them down and won't let you connect. The only way to keep the controller on is to have the console off, which of course makes it useless. It's not all
aftermarket controllers though.

So basically, is it an Official controller? And if not who makes it?

It's an Xbox One S and the cable is blowing? S has an internal power supply and uses a standard figure 8 generic cable. You mean original Xbox a one?

If it's the S it will have to be sent in for repair, the one you would need to get a new power supply for on the aftermarket

I almost never game with the default controller. I use aftermarket 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.
