    Great controller. I know it comes with the newer models, but it still works great on xbox one. I love having the upload screenshot button available to me in game without having to pause, click on the home button and then press x capture. The design is super sleek and easy to use.

    This is one of the best controllers that Xbox has produced. Really nice aesthetic to tie into the upcoming Starfield. The extra dynamic background on the console is also a nice surprise

    By far, this is my favorite Xbox controller! The red/black/white color combination is just so attractive! It doesn’t hurt that the Xbox controller is, hands down the best gaming input device out there. Honestly, I’ll probably end up buying another one at some point down the road.
