This Xbox controller is OG. Works very good for a very long time. Feels great and endures hours and hours of playtime. Let's pass this on to the kids!

I gave it 4 out of 5 stars just because it eats batteries fast and from what I can see, I haven't figured out how to charge it using a wall outlet. I asked an associate in best buy who said that the newer ones seem to not be able to charge using a wall outlet. I bought an extra controller, so there is a backup, but I think customers should be aware that you will need to keep a lot of extra batteries if you game a lot or you will need to buy a separate cord to connect it to the xbox itself to keep playing, which may be a more cost effective option in the long run, but it defies the purpose of having a wireless controller. I haven't figured out why my android phone charger wouldn't charge this, since the controller would vibrate when I plugged it in. I removed the dead batteries, but it doesn't work at all on just a wall charge. It seems to need batteries even though it will light up the "x" button showing it seems to be charging. I also read on other reviews from other sites that if you try to charge it using a wall outlet, you will fry it. Just a lot to be aware of since these controllers are not cheap - I got it on sale, but they are still not something you want to have to throw away by making errors from inexperience.

I bought this controller for PC games as I don't have an XBox.
This controller connects with Windows 11 without an issue.
The battery life is good and the AA batteries can be replaced easily.
So far the control has been precise and I recommend it for PC games too.

I have used this product for over a month now and it is a good priduct. The ergonomics are a 7/10. This is the standard controller from xbox. In my opinion it is a little bulky and for people with smaller hands like my daughter it is mor difficult to utilize. Overall this is a good controller. I believe it would be better if it was a little smaller and more streamlined similar to sony's controllers.

Great feel, love the textured paddles! Better than the older controllers! And the capture button makes it easy to get clips in game! 10/10 would recommend if you cannot find an elite 2! Watch me on Twitch at Twitch.tv/BonsaiBane if you want to see how it does!

Best controller for pc--handheld or otherwise. The only con is that it needs batteries but rechargeable usb-c battery replacements are available for cheap online.
