    As this is a replacement for one that had received some serious usage during the pandemic I can only hope that it will last as long and as well as its predecessor.

    I bought this controller to use with my PC. I had no issues connecting it to my PC though Bluetooth and haven't had any issues so far with also having a pair of wireless earbuds connected though Bluetooth at the same time, which is something I worried about. It works the same way as my Xbox One S controller, so I had no issues getting use to the controls. Neither the share button or the extra directional buttons seem to do anything in the game I've been playing, but it is an older game that I didn't expect to have those functions (I expect those buttons will have to be added to a game by the developers).
