    Another solid controller from MS. I was looking for a new controller for my gaming PC, which is white, and this naturally goes with it. Love the sleek all white controller with black accents for the buttons and joysticks. Can't go wrong with this one!

    Much better than I expected. The trigger grips are great and the textured grip on the back of the controller are much nicer than the previous version. The capture button can sometimes be accidentally pressed leading to an unwanted screenshot, but in my opinion it's worth the convenience when you do want a quick clip or screenshot.

    Beautiful pearlescent sheen, with the classic XBox control scheme. Bluetooth pairs easily with any Windows PC with a bluetooth antenna. Solid, comfortable grip, the next iteration of a classic controller.

    My son is so happy about the controller. The grips on the triggers give a better feel. Very comfortable to hold. It’s smaller and lighter The features are awesome. It has a new share button feature that allows you to share games clips with friends quickly. It charged faster and have longer battery life.

    An extremely comfortable controller that pairs with my Windows 10 computer seamlessly. The buttons are a little loud for my tastes, but I got used to it, and overall the controller has a nice, premium feel that makes it comfy to use for any amount of gametime. The battery lasts a while, too!

  • Xbox shock blue controller review

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Really goo color scheme, definitely a Sonic the Hedgehog feel the color pattern. The textured grips are also nice. Still adjusting to the new d-pad as I play fighters and the raised buttons on the outer edges for each directional input has given me trouble with combo and input accuracy. I think wil time, I will get better with it.
