Best Xbox One X and Xbox One S Accessories in 2019

The sexiest spare Xbox controller money can buy is without a doubt the translucent, ghost-like Phantom Black Xbox Controller. These Bluetooth controllers can be used on both Xbox One and PC, making them a versatile spare controller option.

If you figure that Player 2 doesn't need any bells and whistles, you can pick up a more affordable standard Xbox One controller. The latest models also come with Bluetooth for Xbox One and PC, and can be connected via a USB cable if wirelessness isn't your thing.

The Bionik Quickshot adds a couple of nice features from the Xbox One Elite Controller on a far more affordable budget. The custom parts can be easily fitted into any current-gen Xbox One controller, adding trigger locks for faster firing, and rubberized grips for a more ergonomic feel.

This TCL TV set is still regarded as the best budget option for accessible 4K gaming. Whether you're using an Xbox One X for 4K gaming or Xbox One S for 4K media, this TCL set is the cheapest, high-quality option for jumping on the 4K train.

The current LG B8 OLED 4K TV is widely regarded as the best on the market for 4K gaming and media right now, with insane HDR contrasts and lighting, and a range of great features. It's not cheap, but it is the best if that's what you're after.

The PDP Talon Media remote gets our pick as the best media remote for Xbox One thanks in part to it being even better (and cheaper) than Microsoft's home-grown solution. The PDP Talon Media remote has every control needed to take command of your media.

The Razer Turret is a badass (but pricey) wireless keyboard and mouse combo designed for Xbox One. With Xbox now able to support a couple of dozen games via mouse and keyboard, those who fancy the added precision of a mouse in games like The Sims 4 and Deep Rock Galactic should give this product some serious consideration.

The Logitech G920 racing wheel is the best option for Forza or other racing game fans on the market right now, complete with force-feedback, PC compatibility via USB, and bundled pedals. You can even throw in a gear stick for a bit extra.

Unlike the original Xbox One, which could only be placed horizontally, the Xbox One X and S have been designed to accommodate vertical positioning. PowerA makes stands compatible with both the Xbox One X and Xbox One S. Standing the consoles on their sides makes for further space in your entertainment setup and can keep the consoles from overheating.

You can now control your Xbox console using voice commands via an Amazon Echo speaker. The lowest-cost Echo devices are pretty affordable and currently sport the widest array of support for connected devices and services. The most affordable Echo device is the Echo Dot, starting at $50.

For voice communication, a headset is a must, and we're currently recommending the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 as the best value wireless Xbox One headset. With excellent battery life, full wireless capabilities, mic monitoring feedback, and excellent design and construction, you won't be disappointed.

If you prefer quality wired headsets, our current favorite is the new Atlas Elite from Turtle Beach. Sporting premium audio tuning with robust materials and high-quality construction, the Atlas Elite is tough to beat on value, which feels (and sounds) as though it could be far more expensive.

If you're using a wired headset, you can add more functionality quickly and easily using Astro's Pro TR MixAmp. This is a great tool for mixing sound from your Xbox with audio from a PC if you fancy using Discord or other PC programs for voice chat instead, complete with mic-monitoring injection.

All those 4K game assets wreak havoc on a game's installation size. Red Dead Redemption 2 is over 100GB for example, and will no doubt get even larger with subsequent DLC and updates. As such, an external storage device is practically a must these days.

Standard AA batteries for controllers can become seriously expensive over time, which is why investing in a decent rechargeable solution will save you money. Panasonic's Eneloop batteries can be recharged many, many times before falling flat completely.

If you fancy less fiddly charging solutions, consider the Snakebyte Twin:Charge X. While the 800 mAh batteries aren't the beefiest out there, the drop-and-charge configuration is supremely convenient, and also keeps your playspace tidy, too.

If you find yourself wanting to switch more easily between multiple HDMI devices on a single port, Techole's affordable HDMI switch has been a rock-solid option for me personally. I have several of them for various devices in my set-up and haven't had any issues.

Xbox Live Gold is the essential subscription for any Xbox One user, offering access to some of the console's best features. This premium subscription grants full access to Microsoft's gaming network, including four free games per month and online multiplayer.
