    Great controller. I use it for my PC but works really good. Don't need to do research on how to use it. Just plug it and off we go.

    I bought this for the Xbox One X and it works great. The size of the newer controllers are a little smaller than what I have had before, but it doesn't affect anything. I really like the blue on this one and it is awesome. I don't angry game and I have never thrown a controller, so I can't speak to how well it works if you "drop" it. :)

    Considering that I would have given the Xbox One controller a 4/5, I think that this is a perfect 5/5 for what I want out of a controller. Assuming you have an Xbox One controller, I can compare it to the last generation. The Series controller is much sturdier in its design and ever so more plain looking. I like both those aspects the same. I also think that the largest selling point compared to the last gen is the new plastic on the triggers and the USB-C connection. Otherwise... it's more the same and that's fine. It's just better all around and is the level of premium that you would expect from Microsoft. I will say that the specific details for connecting it to a PC have always eluded me until now. I thought that because this controller DOES have BluTooth that that's all I ever needed to use. While you can, using it via BT doesn't allow the use of the trigger motors nor the audio port and that's where the Xbox Wireless Adapter comes in. I just wish that was more apparent.

    I love this controller! This is now my main controller I use for the majority of playing my games. The color design was really smart and new and the rubber grips makes it a smooth controller to use. You should get it!

    When I saw this controller I knew I had to have it. I been a fan of doom and this one had a lot of detail to it. Way more effort was put into the thought of it. Same great Xbox series controller with a great look.

    Sturdy and a bit of 1990s

    This controller is great! Versatile if you want to use it with the Xbox, PC, or Chromecast. Very sold construction, I don't feel like I could break it easily. Good button design and responsive. The fact that it still uses double A batteries is kind of weird and 1990s, I went ahead and bought some really good rechargeable ones - Panasonic Eneloop. That is an extra cost of ownership so one less star. Maybe so you aren't limited by the life of an internal battery, but for all the costs of batteries you could just buy another controller.
