    Love the color. Was planning to use this and put my White one away cos the white is original, came with Xbox S. ( red/white drift, so am using the original white ) Decide to just continue using the White and put this away for collection or when the White decide to goes kaput.

    When I had an xbox, this controller was the one I was eyeing since my favorite color is black. The system came with a white controller and it gets dirty fast

    Perfect! Got this for my nephew (and me) as he plays on the PC and it is the same controller as my Series X (just in the white color). The only thing I wish is that the 'Share' button they added actually did something on PC. Right now it does nothing as far as I understand it. But the grips, D-pad, textured grips, bigger joysticks, etc are noticeably better than the original. Now Xbox just needs to release a new Elite 3 Controller with these bigger joysticks as options!
