The Xbox control pad receives the Phantom White model and incidentally improves its use with the battery control function in Windows 10

When playing from the PC, one of the options that many users opt for is to use a control pad because of the ease of use it offers, especially for some types of games. It is also a very common option for everyone who comes from the world of consoles

Microsoft has a long tradition when it comes to manufacturing controllers. Both the specific ones for PC, and now those designed for Xbox and compatible with desktop computers, have enjoyed good reviews from users.Ergonomic, attractive... in short, very comfortable to use

Better battery control from PC

That is why it was surprising that since it is an accessory with a strong presence in the PC market, Microsoft did not give it a little more care taking care of some details. This is the case of the control of the battery that remains for our command, a function that now comes to Windows 10 but in a more accessible way.

It will not be difficult to check how much battery power is left for the Xbox controller, since now we can control it directly from the Windows 10 game bar. This is a new function that allows the user to know everything moment, even during games, how much life is left in the batteries of our controller

Major Nelson has been in charge of launching the news via Twitter announcing the arrival of this improvement in the form of a battery icon at the top right of the game bar.

New Phantom White Remote

In parallel, the new controller for Xbox One can now be reserved in the Microsoft Store in Spain. Under the name of Phantom White we find ourselves before a _control pad_ that offers a similar design to Phantom Black but now in white.

Offers a gradient from a transparent part that reveals the interior at the top, to a matte white color at the bottom, which gives it a rather striking appearance (I personally like it more than the Phantom Black model). A new controller that can already be reserved at the price of 64.99 euros.
