    The Xbox controller has been improved but keeping the design we all love and enjoy. I love the new "Share" button that allows you to take screenshots instantly. This was the main reason I purchased this controller to use with my Xbox One. Also, the triggers have improved grip which is awesome. The new D-pad is great!! The overall controller feels wonderful and I am very happy with my purchase. I plan to purchase different colors when more colors are available. Also, I am very happy that my battery packs from my Xbox One controllers work flawlessly on the new Xbox controller. Thank you, Microsoft!!

    The best yet standard Xbox controller

    I've been gaming with Xbox since the original launch console so I've grown accustomed to all their controllers over the generations and this is the most solid one yet. The aesthetics of the Series controllers are very clean and pleasing. Nothing garish or hard to understand about it. As soon as you look at it you know exactly what everything is supposed to do and how it functions. The Shock Blue color is especially gorgeous. It's such a rich deep blue color. Coming from the Xbox One controller the only BIG new feature is the dedicated share button. I'm using this controller on PC for now and I've only used on Steam and currently Steam does not support this button. I'm sure if I used the Xbox service on PC it might support the button but I haven't tried it yet. The rest of the new things on the controller are just quality of life improvements. Textured undersides where your hands grip and over the triggers. USB C to keep up with the times. The D-Pad is especially nice and might be in my top 3 if not my number 1 d-pad of all time. It clicks with every press and the four main directions are raised higher to make it clear which one you are pressing. I tried this out with Street Fighter V and I was whipping out shoryukens and hadokens with ease I haven't felt since using a Sega Saturn controller or the Neo Geo Pocket Color's little joy stick. The controller may not be as forward thinking as the Switch's Joy Cons or the Playstation 5's DualSense but it is probably the most solid standard controller to date from any manufacturer.

    It’s a good remote. Plain and simply just don’t drop your Xbox controllers too many times eventually they’ll get bad stick drift. The colors cool and it’s well it’s a controller.

    Been playing with it for the past few months now and it has held up great. It feels like this controller has better build quality compared to the standard black and white controllers, it’s not heavier or anything, it just feels slightly more premium, especially with the rubberized grips. The entire controller looks amazing as well, which just adds to everything. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a unique controller.

    It seems that Microsoft's new gamepad takes inspiration from the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, offering some of the premium controller's top-notch design features in a more affordable-feeling form. The result is a sleek, affordable and accessible controller, which just feels nice to use.

    [Employee of bestbuy] I have owned a handful of the new Xbox Series X/S controllers in the past few years, and one thing that I can say for certain is that the new design is much more comfortable and practical than previous models. Although, like many controllers from different brands today, stick drift does seem to happen after a while. With that being said, the color design on this specific controller is very sleek. Great controller!

    The Ghost Cipher Xbox controller is both stylish and super comfortable. Love the semi-transparent design with the gold D-pad, and the buttons feel responsive. Works great on Xbox and PC with a stable connection and good battery life. A perfect mix of looks and performance.
