Lasted a while, but eventually had really bad stick drift that couldn’t get fixed. Loved the color scheme, but the grey is definitely lighter than in the picture.

This controller is honestly one of my favorite purchases for my xbox. The red is really vibrant, the patterned design is beautiful, rubberized grips feel amazing, and it's just overall beautiful. It works the same as your standard, just everytime you see it you think- wow, that's really my controller. That looks so cool! You just get some excited to see it. And honestly, that right there sells it. The feeling you get. 10/10 reccomend.

I like that the controllers come in to colors. I’m still learning. It fits nicely in my hand. Has a nice grip and easy buttons to maneuver.

Unlike most of the Xbox One controller variants that are mostly only different in color this controller also has improved performance. This controller has a rubberized grip on the underside. In my opinion this makes the controller a whole lot more comfortable to hold.

I have quite a few of these controllers in my house. They are by far the best controller on the market for any platform. We use them for consoles, phones, android tv, and PC.
I wanted a new one for my PC that was "just mine" and the kids weren't allowed to touch. This is one of my favorite designs so far.

I really like this controller. I like the matte finish and the black on top and the red on bottom. This is my 6th controller. I know its probably a bit to much but I like cool controllers

Amazing! never buying Third Party Controller Again

I bought this controller to replace a cheap $15 third party controller I was using for PC gaming. The responsiveness and sensitivity (in a positive way) is amazing on this controller. Aiming was difficult with the third party controller, lots of dead zones and the joy stick was not very sensitive had to keep tapping left and right for it to aim correctly and it would sometimes move too much to one side or not enough. The third party controller was not defective it was just cheap. But this controller is amazing, the sensitivity is dead on, if you move the joystick a little to any side it responds accordingly. It looks amazing too. Just feels great in your hands. Its totally worth the price tag. I do recommend doing what I did and buying the extra 2 year replacement plan just in case. Totally worth it. I will never buy third party again. I only use this controller for PC gaming and I use a Micro USB but I love it. Hope it last a while.

It’s a good controller . I use it on my Xbox and also to play games on my IPad Pro. Playing Call of Duty mobile, grid autosport and NBA 2k20 is fun using the controller you get a console like experience. Get this controller if you want to play on your phone, iPad, and console you will not be disappointed. You can also you use this controller for many games on Apple Arcade

The colorway is beautiful. Handles just as well as any other Xbox controller. It has the 3.5 mm and the other input option. As well as an option for upgrading to the play n charge kit. I game on PC over Bluetooth. No issues. Get it if you love the colors! Color in my picture may be off due to my led lights in the background.

The grips on the underside are really nice. I’d imagine this would do well for gamers who play for hours and sweat a lot! Love the color. I wish the letter buttons were color coded like on the basic controller so my children could identify the buttons. Happy with the purchase, though.

Overall the same controller that you already have but with a better grip design. The rubberized bits on grip of the control are a nice touch and mainly why I bought it. It gives a better secure feel where it’s not slipping, Not that I’ve had the old one slip out but it adds to the play experience.

I bought this controller to replace one that had a headphone jack not working.
The textured grip on the controller was the reason I bought it and it really is great. I actually pair it to my other Xbox in my bedroom now because of the textured grip. I can't play without it now.
Plus it looks cool.
One thing that I thought would be an adjustment was the buttons not having colors on them but it is a non-issue. After so long playing with the Xbox controller it is all second nature now.
Overall 5 out of 5
Great Controller that will be compatible with the new Series X

Great controller, bought it to play games on the PC and I haven't had any issues and it also fits well in my hands which are kind of small. A big plus!
I have a newer computer with Bluetooth so didn't need an adapter or cord, it keeps the connection really well even if I walk across the room.
I also highly recommend a rechargeable battery pack! There are many different kinds but not all of them work with this specific controller. The first I bought was the wrong kind and it was hard to tell! The one I ended up with that worked great with it is the XBox brand Play & Charge Kit.
I don't have to worry about batteries and when they might run out or how to recycle them which was a concern when I found out this controller took batteries. I feel like most wireless controllers now have adapted to be chargeable.

It’s just an Xbox One Controller. Not one of the fancy remapped one. It’s generic but I like this color.
