    Got the Xbox for the kids. Each kid's color coded so it's easier to keep track of things. They all work great. No issues. We use the Duracell rechargeable batteries. No issues with them. If you use regular alkaline or non-rechargeables expect to go through them fairly quickly.

    My old controller developed a bad case of stick drift and this bright red one was the best choice at the time. Works great, looks great and compatible with multiple devices as well. All in all a solid purchase.

    Standard Microsoft OEM controller. Always dependable. Love the color (red). The box was a little beat up thanks to the anti-theft wire the employees wrapped around it. But controller in great condition. The price is fine… Slightly annoyed in general at the increasing price of gaming peripherals; but that’s more an issue of inflation than of pricing.

    The "feature" I have been looking for in these controllers have finally arrived. The connection to the USB wire has finally changed from micro USB to USB-C. FINALLY!!! Overall, the build quality is as solid as it has always been from the Xbox team with a slight modification to the D-Pad; a welcome addition. I and many like me are slightly upset about making the controller smaller, but it is not something you won't get over after an hour of gameplay.

    Easy to set up on my pc and has been a dream since. I've messed around a bit with the gaming menu, which seems nice. I didn't get the chargeable battery pack, but I've got some rechargable AAs that I swap out as needed. And they last pretty long!

    The right bumper of last controller broke so I had to purchase a new one. Hopefully this model of controller is built differently from the one that comes from factory with your xbox. I got the Stellar Purple color and it looks good

    I have owned every Xbox console since generation one. This generation of Microsoft Xbox controllers has been a mixed bag. This is my fourth controller since I bought the series x the year it launched. I have had thumbstick drift, shoulder buttons sticking, and just reduced performance with the accuracy of the thumbsticks. The build and fit are exceptional from a feel and appearance pov, but the longevity is suspect.
