    This is really a solid controller of you like unique controllers. I got this because I didn’t see a bundle for Starfield coming out, and I wanted something for the game. This is a regular controller - not elite - which was fine for me because I have not made the transition. The bottom of the grips are textured rubber that makes a comfortable hold. The triggers, bumpers, and Xbox button are textured with bumps, which is really neat, and wasn’t to an extent of being distracting.

    Like the new grip on the back. Button travel on LB and RB seems shorter. Joysticks work fine. Not sure if it’s worth the money if you already have the old controller. But good buy if you need a new controller.
