Great but battery flaws
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .Hi there,
We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox wireless controller for the most part. To make it rechargeable, we recommend getting the Xbox Rechargeable Battery and USB-C Cable for Xbox Series X/S. For more information, go here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/microsoft-rechargeable-battery-usb-c-cable-for-xbox-series-x-and-xbox-series-s-black/6430661.p?skuId=6430661
One benefit of this controller is that it automatically goes into sleep mode after a period of disuse so you don't have to worry about removing batteries to turn it off. We hope you have a lot of fun with it!
Happy gaming,
Chuck

Replacement controller

Time well spent
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You always need an extra controller so if my grandchildren come over they can play together. And sometimes we will play a game and just take turns as one person dies we pass the controller, my turn doesn't last long and the grandchildren are laughing at me tje whole time but its still a lot of fun. Nothing better than an original controller.

Great Controller, But Not Comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the color on this controller. As for the new design, it's not much different from the previous XB controller. I like that Microsoft added some grip to the handles, but I do not like that it's plastic rather than some type of rubber or soft plastic. It's not very comfortable.
