    The original X controller was having issues staying connected to my Xbox so I bought this one. I also had a difficult time reading the X,Y,B and A as they blended in with the black background and I am a newbie to XBox gaming. This one is awesome, lighter in weight so easier to hold, bright colored lettering and it connected immediately and stays so. So far I've had no issues at all. I really like it.

    Reliable, comfortable, and works with everything. I use it for my Series X and my phone—switching between them is seamless. The triggers are responsive and the battery life is solid.
