    The Xbox Series X controller is pretty nice, love the new textured grip. Otherwise not much of a difference from past gen, maybe feels a bit smaller in the hands.

    I haven't used an Xbox controller since the 360 era, and I bought it for my PC to play Xbox games. It feels really good in my hands. Its light weight even with batteries in it, the buttons don't feel as stiff as the old 360 one, and even the d-pad feels natural despite its weird design. One complaint I do have is that the share, options, and clip button feel a little to small to use, or just not in the right position for functionality. Also I don't see a way to add recharable battery packs in the back which is a shame because that was a nice, connivant feature of the 360 controllers of old. Example, When I needed to turn of the 360 controller quickly, all I needed to was unhook the battery pack and it was done. Now, I have to open the back up and detach a battery to shut it off or wait for it to shut off on it own which wastes battery life. Thankfully mine is wired to my PC but for wireless players this could be a problem.

    Awesome controller. Size is perfect for those with larger hands. I had an issue with one joystick coming loose after a few months but Microsoft honored the warranty and replaced it for me. Can connect via Bluetooth or wired. Having both options is a plus.

    [Employee of bestbuy] The box does not do the controller any justice for how nice it really is. The feel is great the response time for triggers and buttons are immaculate.

    I purchased this controller for my son. It is a great controller and the quality appears good. It is a little smaller and it’s a little easier to handle.

    Needed a new controller for my Xbox one. This one is for the series x, but is backwards compatible. It's similar feel to the elite controller. So far works great.
