    I use this for rocket league so it takes a beating. So far this feels good in the hands and is very responsive. I have heard they are prone to stick drift and button sticking, but name a controller that isn't. Zero issues with it so far, roughly 180 hours of competitive use.

    Good controller for what I use it for. I don't really play games that often anymore. I use our x box to watch movies and YouTube tv.... Is great for that. My original controller was all beat up. This white controller looks nice sitting on our coffee table. Very clean

    I love the color on this controller. As for the new design, it's not much different from the previous XB controller. I like that Microsoft added some grip to the handles, but I do not like that it's plastic rather than some type of rubber or soft plastic. It's not very comfortable.
