    Works great - I use it with Xcloud and Samsung TV while traveling and it works very well (depending on internet connection). Just pair with bluetooth and go - I only need to pack the controller and a charging cable.

    Great Price, Great Controller for XSX

    On launch day, I was very happy to secure a XBOX Series X - a hugely in demand next generation console. I was able to get the unit from a company that has a red and white bullseye as its corporate logo. Based on observing the difficulty in which people are having getting the console, I figured there might be supply-demand issues for other critical components such as this product so I purchased on during Best Buy Black Friday Thanksgiving special. So far this product has remained in its box (unopened). I did get a sizeable discount on this product with the Best Buy Thanksgiving Sale special pricing. I have been using the black controller that came with the console and enjoy it very much. My only fear is that the controller might suffer the same irregular potentiometer drift issue that I experienced with the previous XBOX console generation (XBOX One X). I have about 5 controllers and all but 1 suffered from that annoying drift issue which made many game unplayable such as COD:MW where tight control of the analog stick is imperative. If the stick in neutral position is drifting, it is very difficult to overcome that during gameplay.

    Xbox controllers have been a favorite of mine for a long time and they stay true to their style. Having the option for batteries or a rechargeable battery pack is great. Used mainly on a pc

    I bought this specifically to connect to PC. It's great that it can connect to Windows very easily. Some games just play better on a controller so I wanted the newer series x/a controller rather than my old Xbox one controllers.

    The only reason I purchased this controller was because of the color. But, I haven’t used it because Ive kept myself busy with school and work. It’s still a nice controller.

    They haven’t really changed since the Xbox 360, and have t changed at all since last gen. That said, my only real gripe is no rechargeable battery. These things eat AAs too, so expect to go through a lot or buy a third party rechargeable since the Microsoft ones are always out of stock everywhere.

    Using the controller for gaming on my Windows 10 PC. It is a really nice controller to use. Perfect weight and balance. I also like the texture and feel of it. Buttons and sticks work very well and perfectly calibrated out of the box. Plus the red color is just cool! Still on first set of batteries after a month of regular use.

    Bought this to play games on the Apple TV which either required or recommended a game controller. It seems to accomplish this task well. I was a little disappointed that this unit does not have rechargeable batteries, but as infrequently as it gets used this is not a huge problem. Just recently saw on the Apple TV control panel that this controller has a firmware update to improve connectivity issues. I haven’t gotten around to this yet, but wish me luck that I get it updated (on a PC?) soon.
