    The new series x controller is the best so far. Not an extremely changed controller for next generation. But enough to keep everyone happy.

    Love the grip on the new controllers. The only thing I have an issue is with the clicking sounds of the buttons on the controller. I know after a while of use and wear and tear it will stop, but the controllers for the Ps5 does not have that issue.
