Amazon has opened a product page of the Xbox One Chatpad, revealing some details and images. If you are interested, the add-on to the controller is available for preorder with this link from the shopping website. Check out a handful of photos featuring the chat pad with the media gallery placed below this paragraph.
The official product will allow you to easily and quickly input codes, search for applications and send messages. The other features include a back lighting (so you can use it with little to no lighting) in addition to audio controls. Two of the keys can also be programmed to allow for quick access to apps.
The Xbox One Chatpad can also be updated via firmware. Among the new features that will be added will be more programmable keys, which are expected to arrive sometime during the middle of next year. You can check out the full product description of the listing below:
