    This is probably my favorite designed Xbox controller. It feels nice with the added grip on the handles and works as expected.

    Bought this extra controller for my daughter for Xmas and she loves this color blue! It’s pops and looks great against her black Xbox x series! She even says it’s a little more compact than previous controllers!

    I got this controller open box for $47 dollars and other than a little dust it has worked very well so far. I wish it had Haptics similar to those of the Playstation controller on the triggers so even though my experience was perfect I'm going to give the product a 4/5 stars.

    I bought this for Windows. I've never owned an Xbox product being more of a PlayStation guy. But I find this controller to be very well designed and it works brilliantly with Windows and Steam via Bluetooth.
