Does xbox one original have Bluetooth? Also good controller replacement

I have the very first original xbox one. I'm struggling to find if it has Bluetooth for the newer Bluetooth controllers?

My xbox one is in the other room and I sometimes connect it to my pc screen by a long hdmi cable I've got set up. Works fine but the controller will randomly drop signal so need a replacement.

Also I've tried the new white Bluetooth controller but didn't like it as I was often clicking the bumper buttons by accident. Are all new xbox controllers now this style?

OK so is the wireless signal better on the new controllers for the xbox one original? I struggle with the controller getting signal way too much due to the location of the box and was hoping the newer controllers would get better signal. if the xbox one doesn't have bluetooth i assume then that's not the case?

ok so seems then buying the new controllers to play on my first gen xbox one is pointless as i'll just get the same rubbish range

thanks appreciate the tip. i will give it a go then as the range is really rubbish between these stud walls. i have to have the door open between the room i'm in and the xbox next door so it's got a clear line of site, but i'm only at most 2.5 metres away, and sometimes even my chair back can seem to cause issues so if i sit sideways in the chair i can get 100% no problem
