    Huge step up over previous versions. Incredibly comfortable, works with bluetooth so no dongle needed for PC gaming. If you are using it on Mac or Linux, you might need to update the firmware first, which will require access to an Xbox, or using the Xbox Accessories app on a Windows pc.

    Regular Xbox controllers are great. You can't go wrong with those. I love the new texture of the plastic shell. A lot less slippery than the original Xbox One controllers.

    Purchased a shock green controller and noticed the joy sticks and controller itself was showing lots of dirt. Decided to purchase this one for my girlfriend and I must say I'm jealous! Absolutely splendid controller and definitely new and not refurbished! 10/10

    I always use Microsoft made controlers over third party made. This controler is not only the usual high quality but is an awesome color. The sale price was the icing on the cake.
