    This Xbox Wireless Controller feels great in the hands—lightweight but sturdy, with a responsive button layout and smooth triggers. The wireless connection is rock solid with no lag, and I love that it can switch easily between Xbox and PC. The textured grips make long gaming sessions comfortable, and the color options are a fun bonus. A must-have if you need a second controller or want to upgrade from an older one.

    Microsoft hasn’t changed the Xbox controller much for several years. This one has the same familiar and comfortable feel that you would expect. Its performance is great, and this version has Bluetooth built in. No need for adapters to pair it to a computer or other compatible device.

    A premium Xbox Controller. This is for use with PC via the Xbox Windows dongle. My previous two year old Xbox controller started to drift and as I’m hyped for Starfield this was a no brainer. The Starfield theming is fun and in line with their “NASA-punk” aesthetic. If you’re excited for Starfield and need a new controller it’s easily worth the modest price premium. The materials feel nicer than the standard controller and it looks great.

    It's an xbox controller. They've done a few tweaks, but overall it will give you almost the same experience what you had if you had the xbox one. Small tweaks, like the triggers have a bit more resistance. The shape and texture feel a bit nicer. Still, the buttons are noisy. Sometimes feel like I might wake my spouse. It's nice they've added the Bluetooth to allow use on other devices.
