    Sleek design and good hardware. My last controller lasted me quite a while, and I hope this one does as well.

    I like me it and it’s convenient. I can play most games just fine with it. Golfing is a little bit harder because the way the knobs are set up. I have to concentrate a great deal because my thumb can’t operate it efficiently.

    This was purchased as a gift for my grandson, so while I haven't used it myself, he has been very happy with it. As a young teen, he had purchased cheaper off-brands and used equipment only to have them stop working properly within a couple of months. This controller responds quickly and with more accuracy than the knock-offs he was using previously. While I personally think the price is crazy for something like this, if it brings him happiness, it is worth it.

    I was somewhat disappointed with the Xbox controller. It’s been years since I’ve used one, and was expecting better quality. The base controller does not come with a rechargeable battery pack. You have to spend another $20-$30 if you don’t want to keep buying AA batteries. Come on Microsoft… Sony Dual Shock controllers all come with rechargeable barriers built in… At $60 I would expect this controller to be rechargeable. The A-B-X-Y buttons felt cheap and were not enjoyable to use. They were hard to press, kinda sticky, and overall just not a great experience. Triggers, bumpers, and sticks were fine enough. No complaints. Connecting to my Windows 11 desktop was a breeze and made playing certain games on PC way more enjoyable. Controller is customizable if you use the Xbox app on your PC. If you don’t mind spending $60 for a mediocre controller experience with no rechargeable batteries then this is the one for you. Otherwise, you might be better off going with a third party controller or upgrading to the Elite controller. I ended up returning it and getting an Elite controller instead.

    Bought this controller about 2 years ago and is still working just like new! It's been dropped a couple times and aggressively handled so I'm shocked at the fact I haven't even needed to replace it! Will definitely be buying again.

    Nice controller. Love the color. Not a fan of the usb-c connection. Big improvement over the original XB1 controller though.
