    The Wireless Adapter for PC is exactly what I needed to get a connection to my custom built PC. I bought the controller and adapter combo because it ended up being a great deal for the two, honestly all I really needed however, was the wireless adapter for Windows. The Xbox controllers are my favorite controllers so that was an easy decision, not to mention Windows 10 seems to work flawlessly with this setup in my case. I bought this setup mainly to play racing games and GTA V, for shooters I am strictly a mouse and keyboard player. All in all I cannot think of one negative thing to say about this hardware, everything is 100% and I am very pleased with this purchase.

    Using Insignia's Bluetooth 4.0 adapter with an Xbox One controller would produce a lot of latency in the controls, and even dropped the performance of any game I would play with he controller. Microsoft's own wireless adapter works with the Xbox One controller perfectly. There is virtually no lag, range is good, and it does not impede my game's performance. Wish I had this in the first place.

    I like using a controller for PC gaming... this was plug and play and has worked exceptionally... very happy with purchase... it does go through batts pretty quick, probably 12 hours of gaming ish'... so probably for heavy gamer they may want rechargeable... I don't bother as they tend to last a few weeks for my low use, great unit!

    A nice improvement over the Xbox 360 controller

    Bought this to replace a wired Xbox 360 Controller. The overall feel of the controller has noticeably improved—among other things, the triggers are properly damped and much quieter, the D-pad is far more precise and has positive click feedback, and the A/B/X/Y face buttons are much more legible. The controller works just as an Xbox 360 Controller would on every game I've tested. There are also lots of new features in the Xbox One Controller, but you'll need to be running Windows 10 version 1607 or later to get full functionality. The Bluetooth features enables use with any Bluetooth-enabled Windows 10 system (version 1607 or later). It also works with devices running recent versions of Android (though you may need to update the firmware using the Windows 10 Xbox Accessories app). On older systems, you'll need to use the wireless adapter or a USB cable. However, as convenient as Bluetooth may be, using the wireless adapter provides certain advantages. Since it uses the native Xbox One Controller protocol, you'll get lower latency and the ability to connect up to eight controllers on the same adapter. On Windows 10 systems, the adapter also enables the use of headsets and other accessories with the controller, just as with the Xbox One console. Overall, this is a marked improvement over the Xbox 360 Controller. Although it's disappointing that Microsoft does not support the more advanced features on older versions of Windows, the essentials work on any reasonably current system and it's a worthwhile purchase even if you're not running Windows 10.

    I'd been using a PS3 controller on my PC with some 3rd party hacks for many years. I didn't know what I was missing. The XBone controller is so much better than the PS3 controller, I can hardly believe it. The analog sticks are more accurate and have smaller dead spots. The controller fits in my hand properly. And, even though it looks weird, the asymmetrical analog stick locations are certainly more comfortable. Best of all, in Windows it "Just works." There are no hacks or dodgy device drivers that need to be installed, and all of the Windows games I've tried with the controller identify their controls with the proper button labels for the XBox controller. My only gripes with the controller are that it doesn't have motion controls (aiming with the controller this way is great on my Switch) and that the BAYX buttons are backward from the Nintendo standard ABXY layout that I've been using for 30 years, which means I'm constantly cancelling when I mean to accept in game menus.

    This controller is great for Windows 10 PC. Plug and Play, no additional drivers needed. If you can find this bundle on sale, it's an easy buy. The only thing that is frustrating is how quickly it chews through AA batteries.

    Good value on sale - works on PC or Xbox One

    Mainly purchased this because I was able to get the controller and PC adapter for less than the cost of a standard Xbox One Controller alone - it was like getting the adapter for free plus saving a couple of bucks. The controller works as expected on my Xbox One and if I should ever use Steam or some other service to buy the type of PC game that would play well with a controller, could see it being fun to play via a PC too. Adapter self installed, and you can sync between PC and XBox One just like you would expect, but I don't really have any PC games that lend themselves to a controller. Again, bought mainly for having another controller for my Xbox One.

    Batteries dies kinda quick if you use it everyday and there's no charge with the purchase. But other than that it's solid and works as you'd expect.
