This is my first ever Xbox controller!.
Didn't know what to expect to be honest, but now im really enjoying it.
Nice design, grab feels good.
The color is awesome.
Buttons feels decent. Click sound is too loud.
Triggers are great, now i like them more than the PS Dualshock design.
Analogs work fine.
D-Pad could be better, have a loud Click sound too.
Tested with Fortnite, Warzone and Forza 7.
Thanks

Great controller with a light textured grip. I love the color transition when you move the controller around in different lighting. I purchased this for my pic and pairing was easy

This controller offers excellent grip, especially from the back, making it comfortable for long gaming sessions. The joysticks also provide solid traction for better control, and its lightweight design sets it apart from heavier alternatives without sacrificing quality. The buttons remain responsive and don’t stick even after extended use, and it's easy to clean overall. The charging port on top is sturdy and doesn’t bend easily, which adds to its durability. The D-pad is both responsive and visually appealing, and the overall button layout feels natural and user-friendly. For the price, this controller delivers great performance, comfort, and reliability—definitely a purchase worth every penny.

I originally went to the store in search for a purple one I saw online. It wasn’t there and I saw this one instead. I decided to get it because I love purple and blue colors and I thought this was going to be like the one I bought my daughter years ago, but with the new updated D-pad, which is way better and easier to use. When I got it home, I discovered that the backside of the hand grips were changed with a new texture to prevent slipping. I absolutely love it! It also helps not feel greasy/sweaty when playing for hours. I know that’s a gross sounding bonus, but that texture is comfortable and IMO a great addition to the controller.

The Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller - Sky Cipher Special Edition is fantastic! The design is sleek and eye-catching, making it a standout addition to my gaming setup. It feels incredibly comfortable in hand, with responsive buttons and smooth analog sticks. The wireless connectivity is seamless across my Android and Windows devices. Highly recommend for any gamer looking to enhance their experience!

Awesome controller! Have had many before and this one feels the best in my hands. There is grip all the way around the controller to reduce slipping and the color looks so good under light!

Nice controller! Great feedback feeling and grip. Looks really cool too! I got this for my living room home theater PC Xbox gaming. I don't have an Xbox , I just use my PC for the streaming games and Xbox pass cloud games etc.. Indo have some kag with the controller , but it's actually coming from the streaming WiFi. When I use it for my gaming rig it's perfect, but I like the big screen sometimes.nowninjust have to get use to using a controller instead of keyboard and mouse for those certain games

Love it, it is so easy to use and set up. I’m in love with the color. This also feels very durable and I got the warranty just in case I break it.

The Pro: This controller is probably the best controller I have ever had. the redesign and adding the share button are a plus. It feels good in your hands
Cons: if you are using regular batteries and not rechargeable you will go through a lot of batteries. It seems to use a lot more energy than the old ones.
But I'm not bashing them since you can get the rechargeable battery. It's a bit expensive though

Works great for Battle.net and steam games on PC. -1 star for not being rechargeable. Seems like it should be for the price.

The look of this controller is so cool! I like the textured grip and the aesthetic vibe of it. If you are a fan of the Doom games and especially The Dark Ages, then this, is a no brainer!

Beyond excited for Starfield. Even if it has bugs, the concept is something we’ve wanted for ages. The controller is proof of a real Limited Edition Collector’s item, and the quality of the Series S/X Model Controllers are no joke. Almost up to par with the Elite Controller. Clear Triggers look and feel beyond cushiony, thumbsticks have no drift so far and hoping it stays that way. Grip on the back feels more high quality than the Shock Blue I got on day one it released.

This controller works great. I bought one previously that was broken in the box, and the employees were really helpful in exchanging it for this blue one. If you're looking for a nice gaming controller, use Xbox.
