And if you don\u2019t already have a media remote for your own console, you\u2019re gonna want one of these ones. 8BitDo is making two different models: The longer remote which comes with a number pad for $24.99, and the shorter remote without the number pad for $19.99. These haven\u2019t launched yet, but they are up for pre-order on Amazon.<br \/>\n8BitDo specializes in making a collection of Bluetooth-powered gamepads with a retro-inspired design. Like the controller for the SNES and SEGA Genesis. But it has some accessories that break away from this product category. And while still for consoles, these new media remotes for the Xbox lineup are one of those pairs of accessories.<br \/>\nBoth remotes are officially licensed accessories for the Xbox too, and are packed with buttons and features.<br \/>\n8BitDo Xbox Media Remotes launch September 15<\/p>\n<p>Pre-orders start today, but you should expect these to ship out on September 15, or just before then so they show up on that day. Each remote has all the necessary buttons to function as intended when using with your Xbox.<br \/>\nAnd although he Short Edition remote doesn\u2019t have the number pad, the number pad isn\u2019t really needed. One cool feature that each remote has is backlit buttons. This seems like a simple feature, but it\u2019s extremely useful. By comparison, the official PS5 Media Remote from Sony does not have backlit buttons.<br \/>\nAnd it\u2019s all the more difficult to use late at night if you\u2019re using it to watch TV when the lights are dim or off completely.<br \/>\nThe dedicated home button serves as a wake function for the Xbox<\/p>\n<p>What good is a media remote if won\u2019t power on your console? Well, fear not, as the dedicated home button at the top of each remote serves as a wake button. Letting you power on your Xbox Series X | S or Xbox One. That way you don\u2019t have to grab the controller too.<br \/>\nBoth these remotes are battery operated, using two AAA batteries so you can easily replace them when they\u2019re spent. It may be a little more tedious than simply plugging it in, but at least this way you won\u2019t have to remember to recharge it.<br \/>\n8BitDo Media Remote For Xbox Series X | S &#8211; Long Edition<br \/>\n8BitDo Media Remote For Xbox Series X | S &#8211; Short Edition<br \/>\nThe post You&#8217;re Gonna Want One Of These New 8BitDo Xbox Media Remotes appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/8BitDo-Xbox-Media-Remotes-2.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1083\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>8BitDo has made a pair of media remotes for the Xbox Series X | S, and Xbox One consoles.
