    Great controller for a good price. The official Xbox controller is the gold standard for gaming controllers imo.

    can't go wrong with the classic, my only complaint is the back of the controller is white, the bumpers are black and the front plate is purple but a controller is a controller.

    Got it as a back up for my Series X and then gave it away to my brother for his Xbox One S and it works just as fine! Needs an update at start but all buttons are compatible with the One S as well as the Series X.

    I’m a sucker for 90s/retro video games and the look of this controller embodies exactly that. Would recommend to get it on sale as it appears it’s on sale quite often. Other than that, I would say it’s one of the best looking special edition controllers released by Xbox.

    Build quality is top-notch and I love this particular color. Not as fancy as the DualSense from a feature standpoint but I've always much preferred the feel and ergonomics (stick placement) of Xbox controllers.
