IT News on October 15th: Microsoft officially released the XBOX Nano controller today. This smaller and more affordable controller is designed to fit easily into pockets, targeting "younger players, those with smaller palms, or anyone who wants a portable device for gaming anytime, anywhere."

The XBOX Nano priced at 329 yuan is Microsoft's smallest controller, with a length of just over 5 inches (Note from IT: approximately 127 millimeters), which is shorter than most smartphones. It comes equipped with all the regular buttons found on ordinary XBOX controllers and also supports XBOX wireless connection as well as Bluetooth, allowing it to be connected to XBOX consoles, smartphones, tablets, and computers.

XBOX Nano The controller comes with a rechargeable battery built-in, unlike most XBOX controllers which require AA batteries or a separate charging kit. Microsoft has also added a customizable action button to this controller, which can be set for taking screenshots, recording game footage, and other XBOX quick actions.

Earlier this year, XBOX Nano already had information leaks. At that time, the prototype appeared to have a small screen used to display the connection status of cloud gaming or the host. However, this screen was removed in the final version released to the market. The rest of the controller remains consistent with the leaked details, including the USB-C interface on the back and the pairing buttons.

XBOX Nano The national bank's selling price is 329 yuan, and it will be officially shipped in November.
