When did the Cyber Monday Xbox Controller deals start in 2022?

The Cyber Monday Xbox controller deals technically began as soon as the weekend hit, a couple of days ahead of the scheduled November 28 start date itself. That's because these offers acted largely as an extension of the existing Black Friday offers instead of being its own unique sale in its own right. 

What made a great Cyber Monday Xbox controller deal?

This varies depending on the model, but if you can knock a third off of the retail price, that definitely counts as a good deal – hence why past Xbox controller deals in the $40 range have stood out. We also saw some of the cheaper gamepads available down to the sub-$20 range which made them ideal spares, too. 

Where were the best Cyber Monday Xbox controller deals found?

These were the retailers which offered what we believed to be the best Cyber Monday Xbox controller deals around. It's a fair tie between Amazon and Best Buy for the vast majority of users. 

Microsoft: the manufacturer of the controllers has its own store (opens in new tab)
Amazon: make sure you look out for the official controller (opens in new tab)
Best Buy: Xbox pads in a range of colors (opens in new tab)
Walmart: a real competitor for gaming electronics (opens in new tab)
Newegg: had great prices on gaming accessories generally (opens in new tab)
