    Love xbox controllers, been playing for years. The newer versions are getting worse and worse. I dont throw my controllers so its not that. Just normal use. The sticks just wear down and start to drift badly. About 60 days and it happens. At least 5 controllers in a row.

    Using the controller for gaming on my Windows 10 PC. It is a really nice controller to use. Perfect weight and balance. I also like the texture and feel of it. Buttons and sticks work very well and perfectly calibrated out of the box. Plus the red color is just cool! Still on first set of batteries after a month of regular use.

    It's a Xbox Controller which are usually great. This one is no different, I think includes additional texture surface underneath the hand holds. Well it sync'd with no problem on my PC. Battery life is excellent as I'm still 60% and it's been a month.

    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.
