    I love these controllers with the rubber textured grips! I only buy these controllers because it feels more comfortable to grip when playing. Unfortunately it seems microsoft only has them on special editions like the previous aqua shift contoller that is no longer available. Overall, this is a great controller that works like all other xbox controllers. I have a ps5 also and between the two controllers I still prefer an xbox controller.

    Stellar Shift is beautiful, if you have the opportunity to get it do so. The grips on the back are subtle but nice, the colors really pop and even the grey on the dpad bumpers and back have a nice shift from the normal.
