    Love the look of this.works very well,one cool thing about this controller is the color can be used as background theme for your Xbox.just go to themes,select Xbox,and just choose it.if you change the theme to something different,you'll have to use this controller to get it again.

  • XBox One Controller Replacement

    Our XBox One controller just up and stopped working after a few years of use. I bought this to replace it. First of all, it works fine with early model XBox One. Pairing the controller to the console was easy. I had to look this up on line to verify where the pairing button on the console was. This controller has slightly more texture than the original controller. I like the feel of it in my hands. The directional pad also feels better.
