Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought as a gift for my son who is a gamer. He really likes the red color.

I love this controller, super cool how you can see all the internals.

Amazing no issues straight to gaming. Customer service helped with issues and concerns you might have.

Happy to say that Microsoft seems to have delivered a controller worthy of the generational update. While the changes are subtle, the rubberized grip and the D-pad really do feel great - much better than the regular Xbox controllers. Additionally, the ability to sync with 2.4Ghz (Xbox or Xbox PC adapter) AND an additional bluetooth device simultaneously is so nice to have. I have it paired to my PC with the Xbox Wireless adapter in my game room, and the Raspberry Pi via Bluetooth in my bedroom. So when I'm ready to go to bed but still want to play a few more minutes, I simply walk over to my bedroom, tap the sync button twice and resume playing on my Rpi via Moonlight. Basically, I don't need two controllers. The only con I can think of -- and it's a limitation of the Bluetooth protocol -- when connected via Bluetooth, the audio jack doesn't transmit audio. Bluetooth only transmits the controller signal, and does NOT transmit receive audio. So when connected via Bluetooth, i can't use a wired headset. But that's OK -- I use a wireless headset anyway and the range is substantially better than Bluetooth. So much to say, I simply carry the controller and the headset to my bedroom and I'm all set.

The controller is a step up from the controller that came with the Series X. The addition of textured grips was nice, and the colorshift is well done. I'm glad I picked this up when I saw it.

Awesome remote and good quality you won’t be disappointed and awesome design

I bought this Xbox controller for Steam games on my PC. It works flawlessly, so far it's my favorite controller to play games. I actually initially purchased a PS5 controller, and although it felt more premium I had to return it due to 2 reasons: 1. Steam games still to this day (!) don't display the PS button layout, and 2. The buttons on PS controller are just too stiff to my liking. On the contrary, the buttons on Xbox controller are very clicky and "fast". The triggers have a nice texture to them, and the joysticks are much much better than the ones on the Nintendo switch controllers. Another big advantage is the dpad, which has those "in-between" buttons, which make it easier to click 2 buttons at the same time, should you wish so, or to slide from button to button with your thumb. Overall, this is the best controller I've used so far. The main indication of that is when you don't even notice you have a controller in your hand when you play games. The only minor complaint about this controller, as opposed to PS5 controller, is that the "horns" which you hold in your hands are a bit short to my liking.

Love the color! The new Xbox controllers are awesome. At first look I thought just the same as older version. But the feel of this new controller is awesome!

Again great product. Cool color. Wireless/ convenient. When it comes to the buttons. My son is expecting for this to do down/left or right when it's needed. We will see. A few more days till Xmas

My son loves his remote because he loves to game durable

Love the color, the feel, it synced easy . Can’t complain!

[Employee of bestbuy] Durable, confortable and well crafted the xbox controller works well on your console as well as blue tooth enabled tablets pc's and phones. After major wear and tear the device may experience stick drift unfortunately.

Comfortable with the special grips, beautiful color. Though I wish this design/color came in the upgraded version of the controller that allowed modification to the parts, I am very satisfied with how it feels and plays.

The color pops out and it feels very sturdy and premium in the hand. No issues at all.

Excellant controller. Would highly recommend. Priced reasonably and Best Buy is the best place to buy it.

Love these controllers. I have purchased many other controllers and none have lasted as long as this one. Microsoft has done their homework when it comes to gaming. I don't plan to by one anytime soon, but if I do, I know what brand to buy.

Excelente product my caller, easy access for the finger nice color very happy with the product

I'm really glad I ordered the official controller and battery pack. Everything works perfectly on both my gaming build and my laptop. I like that it can charge and be plugged in to continue playing and that you don't need an extra charger as it has the usbc port as well. Really comfortably, good grip surface. Glad I went with the OG

Replaced an xbox one controller with this one. Enjoy the matte texture on the dpad+trigger buttons compared to glossy old one. Grips on the back also have a grippy texture compared to the smooth matte texture of the previous version. I enjoy the use of AA batteries as I can just swap them out when they run out.

Love the clear red color and the grips on the back of the controller make it very pleasant to hold. All in all a great experience and good controller if you’re looking for a new one. My only gripe is the need for double A batteries but that is a Microsoft thing.
