    If you need a new controller it’s best to go with the Microsoft brand and not one of the others.

    I've been really impressed with this controller. It seems I can use it on my Xbox and computer with equal ease. It actually works better on my Xbox than the original controller that came with it. That's kind of amazing to me.

    When I bought the Xbox 1X the console only comes with one controller and you really need 2 so I purchased an identical controller that came with the game and I am very satisfied. Myself and my family are very happy with our purchase of the Xbox as well as the controller

    The best thing about this controller is they way it looks. While im playing games I cant help but look at the controller and be in awe of how good the color combination is on it. Its the same as any other controller but in my opinion a step above simply cause of the design.

    Unfortunately my other controller bit the dust. Literally! I dropped it ALOT! and so I went wired. After kicking the cord a few times lol I figured I would get a wireless controller again. It took very little & effort and I was back to shooting zombies.

    Just as simple of a controller as you can get for the Xbox, and it works just fine. I would get the protection plan if you are playing fighting or FPS games where aggressive stick flicks are common, and stick drift is a common occurrence on these.

    My son loves this remote because of the color. He was going to buy one online just like it for $20 more, so we're so glad we found it at Best Buy for less. He likes it because you don't have to buy an extra attachment to plug in earbuds to the remote. The adapter is built in to the remote.

    Good controller - check the box for model

    So I purchased this controller to connect with my first gen xbox one. The side of the controller box said xbox one-s and I didn't notice in store. While it would connect to my xbox and operate in game, it would randomly shut off without warning and it wasn't due to the batteries. It could have been specific to this particular controller but I took it back and exchanged it for one that didn't specify xbox one-s on the controller box and everything has been great. Best Buy even let me exchange it after my return/exchange period had passed.

    There's function, too. This particular edition features a textured back making it a bit grippier than the standard controllers. Outside of that, it's the same excellent and durable wireless controller we all know and love. Zero regrets. Picked up two!

    This has been a great controller. I have swapped to a different color but this is still working great. Great feel and color. I just like to change it up often. Got to throw in some new colors. This was one of my favorite though.

    My son had the OLD controller that was not wireless. He would use his phone on speaker to talk to his friends when playing fortnite. He now has the wireless head set and controller so I don't have to listen to the conversations on speaker phone. He is happy and so am I.
