On the left, two buttons adjust the balance between game and chat audio. But it does include five handy buttons that you'll likewise find on the Chatpad. If you own a controller with a 3.5mm headset jack, you don't technically need a Stereo Headset Adapter. That adapter was originally required to use 3.5mm headsets with the Xbox One, although first-party controllers began to include both 3.5mm jacks and data ports in June 2015. One of the most exciting things about the Chatpad is that it also doubles as a Stereo Headset Adapter. If this is truly a bug rather than an intended effect, hopefully Microsoft will fix it with a future firmware update.
Otherwise, it either misses the keypress or performs A's orange function instead. The green ~ function on the A key only produces ~ when green is held down. For instance, ? and ¿ are the green and orange functions on the period key, as ! and ¡ are on the Q key.Īlthough the green and orange key implementation deserve plenty of praise overall, one key's green function appears to be buggy. A few orange functions are punctuation marks, always paired with similar green punctuation marks. Being Hispanic myself, I love the convenient access to those Spanish characters. Most of these are foreign characters like á, ñ, and ¡. But at least they otherwise match the standard layout, with exclamation mark mapped to the key below 1, ampersand mapped to the key below 7, etc.Ģ9 keys have a tertiary function accessed with the orange key. Curiously, the punctuation marks accessible via the top row of numbers on a standard keyboard are instead mapped to the QWERTY row below it. Most of these are standard punctuation marks. The green and orange keys function just like the Shift key, affecting only the next keypress unless you hold the key down.Ģ8 keys have a secondary function accessible via the green key. Here they're positioned right next to each other, which makes more sense than spacing them apart. Like the Xbox 360 Chatpad, the Xbox One version features two unique function keys: green and orange. But if you do hold Shift while typing, all letters will be capitalized. Hit it once and the next single character you type will be capitalized – no need to hold the key or anything. Whereas the Nyko Type Pad only has a Caps Lock key (it uses Shift for non-capitalization purposes), the Shift key here works exactly as you'd expect.
The Shift key is just to the left of Z, again just like on a standard keyboard. Pressing any key causes the white, green, and orange portions of every key to light up. The F and J keys also feature a small bump to aid with positioning, just as most computer keyboards do. All but four keys have a distinct convex shape that makes them easy to find by touch. The Chatpad keyboard includes 51 keys, with 44 dedicated to typing and seven to other functions.
