Sweet controller! Like the OG version and brand new! These just came out and got it for cheaper than a regular one! Needed a new hockey controller for the series X, grip feels great, little heavier than original controller but the grip on the Thumb-sticks and back of the handles are very much like elite controller but for sports the elites thumb-sticks are terrible. Thank you Best Buy was a steal for Black Friday!!

This is my first ever Xbox controller!.
Didn't know what to expect to be honest, but now im really enjoying it.
Nice design, grab feels good.
The color is awesome.
Buttons feels decent. Click sound is too loud.
Triggers are great, now i like them more than the PS Dualshock design.
Analogs work fine.
D-Pad could be better, have a loud Click sound too.
Tested with Fortnite, Warzone and Forza 7.
Thanks

My husband absolutely loves it! I made this purchase on June 11, 2023 (the WEEK of OUR WEDDING!) and now it’s 2025, we’re purchasing a laptop for him on January 23 at around 11:00! What are the odds??? Just WOW! But overall, he really enjoys gaming and Best Buy has proven to be reliable with all our game-related purchases. We look forward to buying more in 2025!

One of the coolest controllers I own that is not Elite. The color scheme is insane. Love the orange LB button and that the buttons don’t have the traditional XYAB, they have symbols from the game.

Works very well, I bought it for my kid to play goat sim on my PC. Easy setup and works well. Highly recommend to buy rechargeable AAs if you use it often.

I really like this gamer controller. It does its job the only thing I dislike is the length in which it does its job. Seems like every 5 months I have to buy another one.

Pictures just don't do it justice. Has a nice grip and if you're a fan of the Xbox style of controllers, this us an easy recommend. Got it on sale for $40, which is great for a first party controller. I just can't bring myself to spend any more.

Great controller with a light textured grip. I love the color transition when you move the controller around in different lighting. I purchased this for my pic and pairing was easy

I’m almost completing a year of frequent use with this controller and it has shown excellent durability. I got it at a great price and also received 1 month of Game Pass Ultimate. I like the fact that I can simply put rechargeable batteries in it over and over again.

I originally went to the store in search for a purple one I saw online. It wasn’t there and I saw this one instead. I decided to get it because I love purple and blue colors and I thought this was going to be like the one I bought my daughter years ago, but with the new updated D-pad, which is way better and easier to use. When I got it home, I discovered that the backside of the hand grips were changed with a new texture to prevent slipping. I absolutely love it! It also helps not feel greasy/sweaty when playing for hours. I know that’s a gross sounding bonus, but that texture is comfortable and IMO a great addition to the controller.

A Real Limited Edition Controller. Worth it.

Beyond excited for Starfield. Even if it has bugs, the concept is something we’ve wanted for ages. The controller is proof of a real Limited Edition Collector’s item, and the quality of the Series S/X Model Controllers are no joke. Almost up to par with the Elite Controller. Clear Triggers look and feel beyond cushiony, thumbsticks have no drift so far and hoping it stays that way. Grip on the back feels more high quality than the Shock Blue I got on day one it released.
