    Amazing color, looks sleek. Nice texture on the grips and thumbsticks. D pad feels smooth. Easily one of the better looking controllers out there.

    By far the most comfortable controller I’ve ever used. As someone coming from a PS4 I can see why people have always praised Xbox for their controllers. My ONLY complaint is the amount of noise the d pad creates. It’s extremely clicky so forget about playing Mortal Kombat while your lady friend sleeps 2 feet away from you. Lol

    I mean, it's an official Microsoft Xbox controller. What's there really to say. It fits well in my hands, set up is easy (I would hope it would be, considering Microsoft made it for their own console), and I appreciate the color options.
