    I don’t have very big hands but even I noticed the size change. It not as comfortable as my old one. Also you have to update the controler firmware before the bluetooth will connect to a computer corecly.

    Love the new style controller with texturized triggers and grips. Best Buy had it at my house in less than 2 days which was fantastic. Excellent price and fast shipping. Packaged with care.

    Great controller purchased it to use while other was charging. Only thing to complain about is back half of the controller is still white. Not all red but doesn’t effect it. Great product.

    A decent controller

    I truly find it sad that the cheaper versions of this controller work better than the Series 2 elite. I scored it down due to I can't say it's an excellent product. The random double press of the face buttons is still there, for the most part it doesn't effect what I do in my games, the important button I need is the right bumper and it hasn't done the double click ... yet. I have also used a PS5 controller on my PC, and I didn't have any of these issues, not saying there couldn't be an issue like that show up, however for me it hasn't yet. So, overall it's been great & hope it remains that way. Maybe Microsoft will fix these issues in the near future? We can all hope.

    Revised control makes the best control even better. Added the share button makes it easy to capture in game images and footage without compromising the gameplay. Buy even if you only have an Xbox One

    Bluetooth Issues

    The controller has some nice improvements over the previous generation, but the bluetooth is extremely unreliable on PC. Xbox One controllers had no issues with bluetooth. Xbox Series controllers frequently drop connection. I'm hoping this will be fixed via an update.

      Hello there,

      We're sorry that there's an issue using your new Xbox wireless controller with Windows 10 PC through Bluetooth. If you are still experiencing this issue please ensure you have the latest service update for Windows. You can find available Windows updates by going to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Check for Updates on your Windows 10 PC. In some cases, there may be a button that says “View optional updates”, and you may be required to click there to find the update.

      Once that is complete you will also need to make sure the controller firmware is up to date by checking for additional updates within the Xbox Accessories app. If you continue to experience a problem, please check with our team at Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Controller works fine, feel the pricing for these items are always too high as I have to replace about every 8-9 months. Replaced his prior blue wireless one because it kept messing up.
