    Great standard controller

    I owned a 20th Anniversary controller and loved it because of the rubber back. It makes an already great controller that much better and I recommend that everyone get one of Xbox’s special edition controllers (most of their Special editions have the rubber grip) if they’re able because of it. If you’re not wanting to drop a bit more to get the Elite series with back paddles this is a great middle ground between the standard and elite. The price point being $80 for the Starfield one specifically stings, but it’s a very beautiful controller. If this one is too much I still really recommend any special colorway standard.

    I have and casually play an Xbox one s. I really love these cross-gen controllers with the flat d-pad. The electric volt is such a cool color too. I impulsively bought this controller (despite having several other wireless controllers at home) and I have no regrets. It's become my go-to controller.

    I purchased this controller to replace the one in a purchase I made from another store. I didnt know the controller they sent with the use xbox was broken, so I bought this one from Best Buy where I always get good quality service to replace it. I would recommend Best Buy for all electronic needs.

    Bought this to play games on the Apple TV which either required or recommended a game controller. It seems to accomplish this task well. I was a little disappointed that this unit does not have rechargeable batteries, but as infrequently as it gets used this is not a huge problem. Just recently saw on the Apple TV control panel that this controller has a firmware update to improve connectivity issues. I haven’t gotten around to this yet, but wish me luck that I get it updated (on a PC?) soon.

    I'm loving this refinement of what I consider to be the best mainstream controller (standard xbox one). And the series X controller is just fantastic. Now I need to make sure I keep my hands clean before having to wipe down the white backing. Not a complaint from me. Hands down my favorite controller especially for fighting and racing games.

    They haven’t really changed since the Xbox 360, and have t changed at all since last gen. That said, my only real gripe is no rechargeable battery. These things eat AAs too, so expect to go through a lot or buy a third party rechargeable since the Microsoft ones are always out of stock everywhere.
