    I love the colors and the smooth texture - it's also cool that it's transparent-ish. I got this one for me and my son thought it was really cool so he ended up getting the heartbreaker version for Christmas.

    Bought this to connect to a PC--I'm not really a console player. Had no problem connecting to my Windows 10 PC. Works great for RPGs where you may not necessarily want to use keyboard and mouse.

    These new series x controllers work with any Xbox one consoles. Don’t waste time with any other version. The quality of this controller is fantastic and I love the new grip. It’s a very responsive controller.

    Overall these new controllers are well designed and feel greatly improved. And the haptic feedback while gaming seems more precise however i have seen issues with them disconnecting from the console while playing.
