My husband absolutely loves it! I made this purchase on June 11, 2023 (the WEEK of OUR WEDDING!) and now it’s 2025, we’re purchasing a laptop for him on January 23 at around 11:00! What are the odds??? Just WOW! But overall, he really enjoys gaming and Best Buy has proven to be reliable with all our game-related purchases. We look forward to buying more in 2025!

The see threw design is great also the silver color and along with the extra grip in the back of the handle for more control it’s better than the standard controller.

Works great and is tough to withstand the rough handling by my boys and husband.

Gorgeous and works great. Typical long-lasting Microsoft controller. If only Logitech could make products that last this long, I wouldn't have to buy a new headset every year.

Pictures just don't do it justice. Has a nice grip and if you're a fan of the Xbox style of controllers, this us an easy recommend. Got it on sale for $40, which is great for a first party controller. I just can't bring myself to spend any more.

One of the coolest controllers I own that is not Elite. The color scheme is insane. Love the orange LB button and that the buttons don’t have the traditional XYAB, they have symbols from the game.

Great controller with a light textured grip. I love the color transition when you move the controller around in different lighting. I purchased this for my pic and pairing was easy

I originally went to the store in search for a purple one I saw online. It wasn’t there and I saw this one instead. I decided to get it because I love purple and blue colors and I thought this was going to be like the one I bought my daughter years ago, but with the new updated D-pad, which is way better and easier to use. When I got it home, I discovered that the backside of the hand grips were changed with a new texture to prevent slipping. I absolutely love it! It also helps not feel greasy/sweaty when playing for hours. I know that’s a gross sounding bonus, but that texture is comfortable and IMO a great addition to the controller.

Beyond excited for Starfield. Even if it has bugs, the concept is something we’ve wanted for ages. The controller is proof of a real Limited Edition Collector’s item, and the quality of the Series S/X Model Controllers are no joke. Almost up to par with the Elite Controller. Clear Triggers look and feel beyond cushiony, thumbsticks have no drift so far and hoping it stays that way. Grip on the back feels more high quality than the Shock Blue I got on day one it released.

Standard controller

This is a standard Xbox/sx controller. Syncs well to phone and pc. Comes with 2 AA batteries but I use the rechargable kind. Works great with packs too. Runs newest software. It's a slightly updated design with a embossed grip around the bottom handle parts (not rubber but more like etched). If you want a durable and no fuss controller, this is it.

Awesome controller! Have had many before and this one feels the best in my hands. There is grip all the way around the controller to reduce slipping and the color looks so good under light!
