    Having had extensive experience using every generation of Xbox wired and wireless controllers, I can say with confidence that this latest version of controller is the best one yet. It's well built and comfortable and responsive. It also has excellent feedback capabilities as well as cool textured bumpers and triggers that feel amazing. Finally, this iteration of Xbox wireless controller can be used on all Xbox consoles and even Windows and Android and iOS devices. You can't go wrong with this controller!

    I considered the pro controller but this one seemed like a good compromise. I love the feel and layout more than the PlayStation controllers. I’m using this on a Windows PC. WARNING: if you’re going to use this with a PC like I am, you will absolutely need the wireless adapter. It’s not widely available unless you buy it off Amazon or if you buy the controller and adapter bundle together.

    Not much of an upgrade in the physical aspect compared to the Xbox one controller. I know has updated features and technology but compared to the DualSense 1 for the PS5 this one nothing new. For the same price though as last Gen Xbox it's still good controller, the reason why for 5 stars still. Buttons feel good and snappy, texture maybe slightly better feeling. Overall still enjoying it. Used for my PC
