Black Friday brings some of the lowest tech prices of the year, which is great news for gamers looking to expand their setup. There are tons of deals to be had today on consoles, games and accessories -- including quite a few Xbox controllers. You can snag basic colors for just $40 right now, or get this stylish Ghost Cipher variant for just $43 at Lenovo. It's automatically $25 off, and you can save an extra $2 when you use the promo code EXTRAFIVE at checkout, dropping to a new all-time low price.
Internally, this cool Ghost Cipher variant is no different from the standard Xbox controller you get with the console. Fortunately, the basic model is still one of the best Xbox controllers on the market right now. It supports wireless connectivity with a 40-hour battery life or wired play via USB-C cable. You can also remap the buttons to suit your personal play style. The main allure of this unique Ghost Cipher variant is the cool, semi-transparent design that allows you to see the controller's internal components.
Just note that there's no set expiration for this deal, so it could vanish at any point. We'd recommend getting your order in sooner rather than later if you don't want to miss out on these savings. And if you're also a PlayStation or Nintendo gamer (or looking to make the switch), you can also check out our roundups of the best Black Friday PS5 and Nintendo Switch deals for even more savings on consoles, games and accessories.
Why this deal matters
Deals on official Microsoft gaming accessories can be a little tough to come by outside of major shopping events, so grabbing one of its wireless controllers for $25 - $27 off is a pretty great bargain. Plus this is the all-time lowest price we've seen on this unique Ghost Cipher variant.
