    Controller works wonders as did the previous gen version. The new textures added to the controller add a great sense of tactility and makes gripping the controller easier as there are small groves to help with holding the controller during long gaming sessions. Being able to pair up to previous Xbox devices and receivers makes using this as simple as it could possibly be, It doesn't desert the old receivers. Downside, you do have to purchase a new rechargeable battery as you cannot use the old gen with this newer controller.

    Controllers get worn out, everyone knows that. They seem to last about a year (1-3 hours gameplay a day with a little more time on weekends) and they develop drift or the buttons stop responding so well, it just happens. I recommend getting a controller with the rubber pads on the back for comfort and grip, and getting a higher amp hour rechargeable battery for them. The downside that seems to bother me the most is “updating” the controller. It seems silly to me that they need updates every few months. It is annoying to have to do that when you are trying to enter a lobby with friends. Otherwise, the rubber grip Xbox controller is fine. They could seriously lower the price by about 25% and I would still feel like it’s too expensive as well though. Still, the color options make it where everyone in the house can have one in a different color scheme.

    I bought this for use with my Windows 11 PC and comparability is absolutely amazing out of the box. While the grip may not feel too high quality and the D-Pad is much more clicky than the last generation, the controller is built very solid and is definetly an improvement over the last generation Xbox Series X controller. Not to mention the Stellar Shift is a beutiful color! If youre looking for a PC controller, look no further than this.

    I’ve been waiting so patiently and long to get my hands on this controller. When the Series X came out, it was only blue, white, and black. I had a couple of buddies grab the blue controller, but I had a strong feeling Xbox would release a red series x controller, which they did. It’s great and I haven’t had stuck drift yet! The underneath grips for the palms of your hands don’t wear fast and I’ve been able to game for hours on end, on multiple occasions! Very satisfying controller! Highly recommended!

    The grips on the handle and the detail that was put into the design of the remote is extremely well done. I’ve only noticed a slight problem recently with possible stick drift? But perhaps it may be an issue with the game I’ve been playing with this remote (Fallout 4). Either way I still don’t mind this purchase, this remote is now THE remote haha
