    Just like any other Xbox controller, drift is a fear that slowly creeps in. Last one I will ever buy because of other controllers with more reliable thumbsticks.

    This controller is almost the same as the old Xbox One controller. Only thing new I like is the directional buttons. The new directional buttons are very nice for spamming combos in fighting games. Still pretty expensive though for a controller without an internal battery.

    Really no difference than the Xbox one controllers. One exception is the USB to charge rechargeable batteries(not included). Instead of a micro USB is now USB C. Love the feel of the controller for gaming. Faster shipping than what Best Buy said it would arrive. Very pleased!

    Beautiful Controller with one future fatal flaw

    The controller is beautiful. With clear triggers you can see the vibration motors. My main issue with the controller is the rubber grips on the back. I prefer the textured plastic on the normal Xbox Series controllers and years down the line this controller will be plagued by rubber reversion.

    Decent Overall; Disappointing Win10 Performance

    I bought this with a discount, and it wouldn't be worth the MSRP without it. I was hoping this controller would have fewer Windows 10 Bluetooth connectivity issues than the Xbox One controller, but they're the same. The PS4 controller (without native Windows support or drivers) connects to Bluetooth and syncs with the PC faster than this current-gen Microsoft one. Nonetheless, this controller (when eventually paired) works as it should.
