    Xbox controllers are the best controllers on the planet! Most comfortable. Best layout. Most reliable and most flexible working with PCs and many other things. Love the color schemes so everyone can pick out their own controller

    Honestly feels like a good successor to the xbox 360 although i prefer the 360 ergonomics a bit more. Still a solid choice for gaming on my pc.

    The new xbox series x controller is fantastic. Although it isn't a great leap from the xbox one design that's ok because xbox controllers have always been the cream of the crop in controller design and comfort. First the grip textures added to the back and triggers is wonderful. I am a gamer who gets sweaty hands after long sessions of gaming and that grip helps. Second the dpad has been improved. It's feels nicer. It is concaved so your thumb can sit on it perfectly in the middle. One thing to note is that the dpad is louder now when pressed so that can be a problem for some people. Third the new share button makes it easier to save screenshots and video clips. One press for screenshot or hold for video clip. The new design is a refinement of the last gen controller with teams here and there so if xbox one cobtrollers were good for you then series x cobtrollers will be too.
