Xbox Series X|S Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The red is very vibrant, it would be hard to lose this controller in a room. The triggers and grips are textured. Very standard feel of a controller. This controller also supports the new rechargeable battery packs that use type-c charging.

I would recommend this to a friend Best controller for the price
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ended up buying this remote for our pc inlieu of the others offered. Majority of platforms on pc supported this set up and made sense. We came from an xbox platform and switched to pc so were familiar with the controller and the feel. Hands down, more comfortable than a ps5 controller.

Very satisfied!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the real deal ultimate controller! I use this controller with the Xbox one s and it runs very smooth. The plastic casing is coated in a grippy, soft texture which adds some comfort when used for a long time. Triggers and joysticks are smooth and silent, and the buttons bounce back in place unlike cheap controllers I have used in the past. It is fast and efficient and is worth the money! Just take note that the X, A, B, and Y buttons are the same color. This might be a little confusing to new users because the regular remote uses colored buttons. That being said, at least they put the traditional colors of the buttons between the X, A, B, and Y buttons for guidance.

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for the boyfriend. He loves that the backside of the controller has little stubbles so he can grip the controller even when he has sweaty hands. The color is fantastic and haven’t seen the blue on other controllers before.

Can't Mess Too Much with Perfection
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wrote this for my Series X review, but it applies here: The controller feels a little lighter than the previous controllers. Much better texture and is as comfortable in the hand as the previous one. The "share" button doesn't really matter to me, but it's a nice added feature. I didn't think I'd like the D-pad when I first saw it, but I love it a lot more now that I have used it. My only gripe (small one at that) is that it's a bit noisier that the old D-pad. Very clicky. Not really a deal breaker though. It's good to see that Microsoft for the most part basically said "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" about the Series controllers. I'm also glad to see that Microsoft released a different color along with white and black. It gives us some variety. Let's hope for more new colors in the future, as well as the return of the Design Lab soon.
