    After my right toggle started drifting into its own dimension I knew it was time for a new controller. This one is all fancy with the white camo-- clearly it still works the same but has the added bonus of a textured grip unlike the controller than came with my xbox.

    I give 4 stars because these controllers I feel should be $30-$40 not $50-$60. They are durable controllers for the most part but after long hours and days and weeks of gaming the thumb sticks start to wear down fast I’ve had issues with a couple controller before hand that the joysticks get stuck and broken. I recommend getting a game freak pad attachment for your joy sticks to prevent wear and tear

    My son wanted this controller for his birthday and he loves it. It works great and he enjoys using it to play games. The red helps keeps the arguments down between him and his oldest brother, they both have their own colored controllers.

    This replacement controller for the XBox One works as expected being from the manufacturer of the console. Easy to connect and works well with rechargable batteries as well as regular AA's. I know there is quite a bit of tech in these devices, but they still feel pricey given the propensity for them to be broken, with a little force to the joystick (typically by dropping) it is possible the movement can be hampered.

    This controller works as well as any other Xbox controller. We decided, though, that we wanted each controller to be a different color so that they're easier to keep track of (i.e. the blue controller is dead, but I just charged the black one). It makes it less confusing.

    The diamond-rubber grip that comes on the Tech controllers (and the Elite) are so valuable. I found that the normal Xbox controllers just did not provide enough grip. In general, Microsoft easily has the most comfortable controllers of all three main consoles.

    This Xbox one controller is so cool! The color is what first attracted me to it. My son said I "needed" to but it so he could teach me to play video games with him! So I bought it, and now we spend a bit of time together doing that! Fun and a new skills! Hahahaha!

    The color is awesome first and foremost. I have many controllers, I collect them and I use them. I love the rubbery grip on the back. Wasn't a huge fan of the elite, this gives a little of that special touch. It looks sharp and is great to play

    Bought as a second controller. Confusing at first on how to connect to the Xbox but connected when we started to play games. Wireless design allows them to be used almost anywhere around the gaming area. No wires to trip over!
