    Works great. My only reservation in leaving this review is that my last MS controller worked fine for 6 months and then developed terrible stick drift.

    Excellent build quality, comfortable in the hands. Able to retain xbox binding & use usb(c) connectivity for PC. I have noticed the Series s/x controllers disconnecting, randomly, and reconnecting on original Xbox One consoles. Googling this yields many results of others experiencing the same thing.
