    A small update to a great controller.Keep in mind that you will need to buy a new Microsoft battery. The old ones will not fit in this new model. The back panel is just a bit smaller. And the other update that they did on this controller is that they added a Type C connection to it. The controller has a nice texture on the handles for better grip. And the triggers have a good tension to them. I hope you were able to get one of these when they were $40.

    The Xbox controller is one of, if not, the best controller to use for both console and Windows gaming. The best gets even better with this version as the design is amazing. I love the transparent triggers and the colors of it. I am going to take good care of this

    So I got this controller to use with my Windows machine. First the bad stuff. Unfortunately, I bought it within the first month of the release so there were a lot of problems. The controller wouldn't work wirelessly. So I had to go digging to find a solution. Found a solution which was to connect it with a USB-C, and update it. IT works now but now it will randomly lose the Bluetooth connection which has led me to die a few times in platformer games. I will update the rating if that gets fixed. The good stuff is that it's a really comfortable controller with an amazing grip and sticks layout. The buttons feel really good and the battery life is nice especially if you get a rechargeable battery pack or batteries.

      Hello there,

      We're sorry that there's an issue using your new Xbox wireless controller with Windows 10 PC through Bluetooth. If you are still experiencing this issue please ensure you have the latest service update for Windows. You can find available Windows updates by going to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Check for Updates on your Windows 10 PC. In some cases, there may be a button that says “View optional updates”, and you may be required to click there to find the update.

      Once that is complete you will also need to make sure the controller firmware is up to date by checking for additional updates within the Xbox Accessories app. If you continue to experience a problem, please check with our team at Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Great controller and worked with the system right away. No hassles to get the connectivity going like other controllers. Definitely recommend as an extra controller to have both boys playing at the same time!

    The controller brand new works great but give it a few months and this is without even dropping it on the floor or abusing it in any fashion and sticks start to drift rendering the controller almost useless I recommend always getting a warranty on these things because it's a matter of time as to when the sticks start going crazy and you can't aim Drive or play any games for that can get really annoying and frustrating ...these things used to be Bulletproof when they first started making them and I think it's a money grab on Microsoft's part to keep making such shoddy pieces of equipment for their systems.. I was actually going to buy Elite controller which is probably insane because dropping 200 bucks and within 3 months the sticks are all messed up doesn't make sense

    Best gaming consoles controller I've ever used .. very comfortable, nice grip, feels good in the hands , not too big, but not too small .. vibration motor is nice .. triggers not too springing or sponge like , they feel good , not too firm or too much tension .. the controller doesn't make my hands sore or anything like that , after playing 3 hours .. hands felt fine .. I highly recommend this product .. I got mine during holiday sale for $20 less

    This controller is the best I've ever used. I WOULD give that title to the Nintendo Switch Pro controller IF the trigger buttons were analog, since they are not, the crown goes to the Series X controller. Even though it is mostly the same as the Xbox One controller, they have made very minor tweaks that make it even more comfortable. It feels amazing. The triggers have a textured surface that makes them easy to grip. Phenomenal piece of gear.

    Got this controller for my partner for Christmas as they use it on their PC for Xbox gaming on the computer. I’ve always been a fan of Xbox controllers and this is no exception. Went ahead and got the protection plan for it but will likely not to use it as the quality of the controller is pretty dang good. Can’t speak for it to use on Xbox systems but would imagine that it works pretty great.
