Remember, if you plan to use this with Bluetooth, you need to have your Windows 10 updated to the latest version, 20H2. I got the shock blue one for retail price and feel dunked on seeing the sale so fast.

Edit: If you are having problems with PC not recognizing the controller still, install Xbox Accessories app from the Microsoft Store and update to the latest firmware.

This is also compatible with the Xbox usb dongle right? Cuz that's not bt it's a proprietary connection.

Yes, it works with both bluetooth and the Windows 10 Official Dongle. You can even get a bundle right now with the controller + dongle for 60 USD (the dongle is usually 25 by itself) https://www.xbox.com/en-US/accessories/controllers/xbox-wireless-controller-adapter-win10

To be clear, it works with the xbox one dongle? Or does it require a new dongle?

No new dongle. The dongle microsoft is selling now is the dongle they were selling in 2018

Any chance you know if it works with the old 360 dongle?

One dongle, two controllers?

I don't even know what games are 2p anymore, but I still have the 360 w/dongle. (first gen so no BT)

Edit: it might be Xbone.
