Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

My oldest son loves purple and the idea that it represents royalty. This was exactly what he wanted. Not only does it look good it works great.

I am so glad that I purchased this controller, my old one was falling apart. This controller is very reliable and easy to connect.

I really like this gamer controller. It does its job the only thing I dislike is the length in which it does its job. Seems like every 5 months I have to buy another one.

It’s a solid controller. One of the best for the price and far better than brands built for pcs. The buttons are firm and snappy.

They don’t make them like they used to do anymore. I have had this controller now for 3 months and the sticks drift uncontrollably, the buttons stick and this controller has been kept in excellent condition as you can see from the photos I’ve shared. My last controller lasted well over a year and before that one they lasted just about as long as the console did. They just don’t seem to be using quality parts any longer. Might as well start buying the cheapest ones because more than likely they will need replacing sooner than later now days.

I love this controller! At first it felt a bit smaller and that’s because it is, so now kids can use it easier than before. But other than that, the texture on the back is great for grip even though it isn’t rubber, and I’ve found that it keeps my hands from feeling sticky or sweaty during long gaming sessions! Also the share button is an amazing feature that I personally use all the time to take snapshots really quickly without pausing the game, and hold it to take clips. Lastly, the new d-pad is super nice and doesn’t hurt to rest your thumb there for games that use it. The USB-C upgrade is also very welcome, it was about time. Overall the controller feels great in the hands and more sturdy than previous Gen controllers. I only wish that they would improve the vibration mechanism inside.

Works very well, I bought it for my kid to play goat sim on my PC. Easy setup and works well. Highly recommend to buy rechargeable AAs if you use it often.

Never experienced stick drift. Never experienced anything people often complain about. Take care of your controllers and they last forever. Grips your hands and feels perfect.

The way the color changes is awesome!! I really love the way the color looks in different angles!! Also the back of the controller has some rubber gripping on it which is awesome!!

This controller has exceeded expectations. I have used many gaming controllers over the years, and none compare to those made by Microsoft. The Sony controller has cool features, but my Xbox ones have been quite a bit more reliable.

Always reliable and works great. This is the third one I have purchased from Best Buy. They last a long time.

Great controller I would definitely recommend anyone getting this.

Good design for a great controller, I love the game and control feels good.

Beautiful iridescence, changes color from blue to purple. Negative is that it takes AA batteries, but you have the option to replace those with a rechargeable battery pack and charging cradle, so no switching batteries. Not as convenient as playstation's built-in battery, but have noticed slightly longer life in comparison. If you're new to xbox, coming from PS or Nintendo the face button configuration can take weeks of retraining muscle memory ("X" is in a different spot on all three).

Best controller interms of connecting different devices; PC, Android devices. I wish apple add the support for these new controller soon so that I can use this controller on my iPad and iPhone aswell. About this controller, it's perfect. I like the design, and it's feel when you touch.

Love this controller, still have the first one to this day after a couple of years, I bought three just incase and never opened two of them. The colors look amazing in person, and the grip on the back helps quite a bit with sweaty hands.

Great controller looks good and feels more solid than my old controller

One of the best controller that I’ve every had!! Would recommend!! The color on it looks better in person than it does on the box and the way the controller feels is amazing!!

Clean and slick design. I really like the color scheme. The grips on the handles feel good too.
