    I usually wouldn’t write about a controller, but this has been a nice upgrade future wise coming from the Xbox 360 controller. The ability to connect over Bluetooth to my PC and to my iPhone is fantastic. The ergonomics are also really good and overall the same great shape that we’ve come to like from the Xbox controller with some nice texture updates and better connectivity.
