Great Xbox controller. Honestly just a normal Xbox controller nothing groundbreaking but the design is really neat on this one.

Introduction I got this controller for PC gaming so that I wouldn't have to deal with connecting my Nintendo Switch Pro Controller every time I feel like playing a game on my computer or the confusion of game UI's not perfectly matching the Switch Controller. Feel The controller works well, but it's slightly less comfortable feeling in the hands than the Switch Pro Controller, though it is nice to have actual triggers, which is what the Xbox Controller has over the Switch Controller. Both feel really comfy in the hands though. The d-pad on the Xbox controller is better for quarter circle inputs than the Switch d-pad, but not by a lot. However I do think the d-pad on the Xbox controller is overall better than the Switch Pro Controller. Price The Xbox Controller is 10$ cheaper than the Switch Pro Controller, however the Xbox Controller does not come with a cable or a rechargeable battery, which is included with the Switch Pro Controller. The rechargeable battery pack + cable costs 25$, so if want both the Controller and rechargeable battery, it costs 15$ more than the Switch Pro Controller, though I suppose at the very least this also means you can replace the rechargeable battery, which isn't possible with the Switch Pro Controller. What the Xbox Controller does come with is 2 AA Batteries, which is what you use if you don't have the rechargeable battery. I wish the controller at the very least came with a cable, since you need one to update the Controller's firmware, but at least on the plus side, the controller uses a usb-c port, so if you didn't get the rechargeable battery pack, but have a spare usb-c cable, you can use that, and yes, it can also be used as a wired controller. Conclusion Despite the price, I do not regret my purchase because now I don't have to resync my Switch Controller anytime I feel like playing a game on my PC, and now there's zero confusion when it comes to figuring out the controls in games. The UI now matches the proper buttons, which is kind of obvious considering how most modern PC games are designed with the Xbox controller in mind.

This is one of the finest-looking controllers Microsoft has ever produced, and I've owned quite a few along the course of the Xbox product line. There's "depth" to this pattern that you don't really notice unless you look for it, and the feel in the hand is just magnificent. Non-slip coating, punchy button response, etc...all par for the course. Got a great price too!

That color of red draws you right in. She screams “Hey! You deserve a break…sit down and let’s play!” Smooth remote but the color keeps it dangerous.

Very smooth to use. Hook up to my AppleTV was great and very little lag with the games I play. Love the color and the price is good. Look for a sale and its a great product.

Bought this to replace our older one. These are comfortable and just simply work

Okay, I’ll be honest—I bought this Xbox Wireless Controller Sky Cipher Special Edition because it looked way cooler than my old one, and I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m a sucker for good design. But once I got it in my hands? Wow. The feel and grip on this thing are so comfortable, it’s like they designed it specifically for me to conquer all my gaming goals (and possibly save the world while I’m at it). The color scheme is sleek and sharp—looks like something you'd see in a futuristic spy movie, and I feel like I should be wearing sunglasses while using it. The textured grips on the back are perfect for sweaty palms during intense moments, and the button layout is exactly what you’d expect from Xbox—intuitive and easy to use. But honestly, the best part is how it fits in your hands. I’ve held controllers in the past that feel too big, too small, or just… off. This one feels like it was custom-built for me. No more cramping after hours of gaming. It’s snug, comfy, and just the right weight. I could hold it for hours without even thinking about it. TL;DR: If you want a controller that looks as cool as it feels, this Sky Cipher Special Edition is the way to go. It’s got style, comfort, and is totally ready to take on whatever game you throw at it.

I loved the color and design but the controller itself works great!

Microsoft owns xbox. What do you expect? It goes well with Windows, & with the option to connect it via bluetooth makes it better than a ps4 controller which needs to be connected via usb. Plus if you have a xbox (which i doubt since consoles are slowly dying) it can be used for 2nd player. Also xbox mode is now on windows, so if your an older individual theres that i guess. If you're a younger individual you can probably utilize it a lot more

Very nice controller. Looks nice and feels great. Also a decent price.

Has everything you need for gaming on windows plus Bluetooth, the blue color is amazing, and I love how the grip feels. Only downside is it doesn't come with rechargeable batteries.

Love the ergonomics of this controller. It feel good especially for larger hands

Needed to reppace my old seies X controller that got damaged so I got this one. Its a good controller and provides everything you need. Wireless, feels like the series X controller, and looks kinda cool.

I recently bought the Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller in white from Best Buy, and it’s been excellent. The controller feels solid, responsive, and very comfortable for long gaming sessions. Pairing was quick, the buttons are crisp, and the textured grip makes a big difference. The white color looks clean and premium. Overall, a great purchase and definitely worth it.

Works great and has those little grippy things I like

I purchased this controller on April 19th and it’s June 6th and It’s already malfunctioning.I had to resort to playing with my old controller on 6+ years I barely play on my console. I also bought a iPad 12.9 inch pro in December and had to receive completely new one by may!

Works as advertised. Great colors, daughter loves it. Connected easily to her firestick for stream gaming via Gamepass. Slightly pricey but was in a pinch so this is what we ended up with.
