    That blue color pops! The new controllers are slightly smaller than last years, feel more solid and responsive, great addition!

    Replacing a 10 year old worn out controller, looked at all possibilities and decided on a Microsoft replacement. Connected up and works with zero issues. Since the old one lasted 10 years, I expect this one to do the same. Not to mention the price was right and they had it in stock. Great job Best Buy.

    I have always preferred the Xbox controller over the Playstation. It feels more premium and heftt, thats the way i like my controllers. Have bought cheaper imitation ones and they feel very light and cheap. They didnt last at all, so its worth your money to just get the real deal Xbox controller.

    Functionally, its the same as any basic Xbox Series X contoller. The one difference is the rubberized grips. It makes longer gaming sessions much more comfortable for me. Aside from that, the look is top notch. Love the little details. It looks great on my desk too. Razer needs to make a charging stand for it though.

    I was somewhat disappointed with the Xbox controller. It’s been years since I’ve used one, and was expecting better quality. The base controller does not come with a rechargeable battery pack. You have to spend another $20-$30 if you don’t want to keep buying AA batteries. Come on Microsoft… Sony Dual Shock controllers all come with rechargeable barriers built in… At $60 I would expect this controller to be rechargeable. The A-B-X-Y buttons felt cheap and were not enjoyable to use. They were hard to press, kinda sticky, and overall just not a great experience. Triggers, bumpers, and sticks were fine enough. No complaints. Connecting to my Windows 11 desktop was a breeze and made playing certain games on PC way more enjoyable. Controller is customizable if you use the Xbox app on your PC. If you don’t mind spending $60 for a mediocre controller experience with no rechargeable batteries then this is the one for you. Otherwise, you might be better off going with a third party controller or upgrading to the Elite controller. I ended up returning it and getting an Elite controller instead.

    Bought this controller about 2 years ago and is still working just like new! It's been dropped a couple times and aggressively handled so I'm shocked at the fact I haven't even needed to replace it! Will definitely be buying again.
