So i just bought a Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G and my Xbox Series Controller wont pair. It says that it is paired but it never lights up blue in the Bluetooth menu and the light on the controller wont stop blinking. Any ideas?

the controller light blinking fast means its searching for devices to connect too. Make sure you have bluetooth enabled on your Xiaomi Redmi Note and then you should see the controller appear under bluetooth settings. You need to click on the controller and press connect.
also check you have a xbox controller that supports bluetooth.

The phone recognises the controller and when i press pair,nothing happens,the light just keep blinking and the controller is in the connected devices but it doesnt work. It supports bluetooth,i use it on my pc and my previous phone.

yep, if the controller connects with your pc on bluetooth then the issue is clearly with the phone and not your controller.
