    I love the new grips on the trigger fingers. The button for screen shot is fun but I had to get used to not bumping it for a few games. Fast action and response time too. Defiantly a better upgrade than my old Controller.

    Good xbox controller that works with the old xbox one as well. The previous xbox one controller usually ended up having a phantom drift with the joysticks after 100+ hours of gaming. So far these haven't shown any issues.

    Still the best controller for the money on the market. I enjoy the newly added waffle texture on the back of the controller and redesigned D-Pad. Overall if you can get these on sale for under 50$ they are definitely worth it.
