    My son loves this controller and the colors!!! He was very happy about me buying this. Every since I have gotten it he doesn’t play with his other controller, so I am very pleased with this controller.

    I bought this on Black Friday due to the great sale price. This controller is definitely an upgrade from the base Xbox One S controller. The rigid design on the grips and the bumpers and triggers is a nice addition. I don't record often, but having the additional button to do so is nice. I gave this an excellent rating due to its superiority over other base Xbox controllers.

    This controller works great with my Xbox one. Replaces my original Xbox controller. Exactly what I was looking for. The shipping was super fast , like 2 days. I would definitely recommend this to another customer. This controller also works for the newer Xbox systems which is great for future upgrades. The color is awesome and controller is unique.

    I initially bought it because I loved the monochromatic color scheme. I was pleasantly surprised to find the back of the controller grips were textured rubber, making it easier to hold onto during intense game sessions or heat waves.
