    This was the perfect color for my Xbox One S system. I had needed this to replace my other Xbox One S controller. I had accidentally dropped it against something hard and the synchronization button is jammed to the point where I can’t use the controller unless I plug in the system. I had wanted another space gray controller but they didn’t have one so I went with them and it was the perfect color.

    XBOX 360 controllers were starting to wear out, and these are a great replacement. I can't find any third party controllers that feel as good or last as long as Microsoft controllers. A little expensive but I think it's worth it because they do last. Very responsive and don't suffer any drifting like many others do. Problem I find though is batteries don't seem to last quite as long as Xbox 360 ones I had for years.

    Great controller and a good step up from the last gen of controller. I have bought one separate and one came with my new xbox. Both have been great and look really nice. One note is that you have to connect it with an xbox and update the controller before using it on anything else like a phone or PC. If you don't do this it will have severe input lag. Other than that great controller.
