    Best one to get. The colour ones have a normal plastic backplate, this one has like a rubber one, which to me at least feels a lot nicer to hold

    Works well, but nothing fancy. Buttons still feel like they arent great quality. The batteries run out very fast and doesnt come with a rechargeable battery pack. One great thing is the connection, Im using it on pc and it has a fast, stable connection over Bluetooth.

    Feels great in the hands; I love the texture of it all. The d-pad and LB/RBs are nice and clicky. Just an overall great controller. I was thinking of taking a star off because I was having constant disconnections (like many others) so it made the controller unusable but I am now no longer having those issues.

      Hello there,

      It's awesome to hear that your new Xbox wireless controller is a comfortable fit for your hands. We're sorry that there's an issue with the connection to your console, though. Random disconnects can occur for multiple reasons, including low battery and competing wireless devices. We recommend troubleshooting the problem with Xbox Support here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Xbox might be lacking in first-party quality games but their controllers are still my favorite when it comes to the modern big 3 consoles. Feels great, plays great, and this particular color scheme looks great.

    Not bad at all, especially for 35 bucks. Very solid build quality. I just don't really use it, the Dualsense is just far better with more features.

    Kids enjoy using this controller to play their Xbox. The wireless feature makes gaming fun. The connection is seamless and the remote works consistently no matter which game is played. Great multi game remote that should last a long time.

    If you play xbox,not much needs to be said, if you don't, know its a great controller and the only flaws I noticed consistantly is over use can cause heavy stick drift and some times the bumpers are kinda '"cheapy". (every controller ever has these issues). Overall I reccomend it over the cheaper knockoffs.

    The design aesthetics are great, your ship layout is copied along the buttons on the controller face. Its an xbox controller like any other of the new design, so a quality controller for xbox and pc use.

    Never really been an Xbox user, but since I got into PC gaming and still prefer controllers. This is a great controller, especially for people with gorilla-sized hands. Just a big disappointed that you need to buy a rechargeable battery separately, but that's just me though.

    I game on pc and this controller is not as good as the last gen controller. the first one i bought had connectivity issues and would often times act like a mouse and glitch off and on between mouse mode and controller. The new one I got works but in some games does not show up as an xbox controller it shows up as xinput device. this is mostly caused by software issues from microsoft. this controller does use less power though so batteries will last you weeks.
