  • Really nice controller
Style: Controller Color: Deep Pink
Worked great, package was a little damaged when it arrived but the controller itself was fine. Only been a couple months and already have some stick drift but nothing major. Still usable. Mainly use it for Bo6 so take that as you will. Overall 8/10 though just cause of the damaged packaging and stick drift ... show more

  • Great ergonomic controls, bluetooth compatible
Style: Controller Color: Ghost Cipher
This is a great game controller for use on Windows. It connects via Bluetooth which is much better than a dedicated dongle that gets lost. Looks great. It can also be plugged in directly. In addition to the great controls, ergonomic grip, good, looks, headphone jack it also has a rumble function. The real icing on the cake is that it can be used to control legacy games via Steam. One just needs to use Steam to launch your game. It does require that you select ahead of time the controller type (XBOX). ... show more

  • Get this not the elite
Style: Controller Color: Deep Pink
Other than the fact that Amazon sent me the wrong color I really wanted purple and got pink. This controller is pretty awesome. I love the buttons the way they feel and my hands. It’s got grips on the handles for easy grab sticks works good. Very sturdy over all good controller so pretty much just your average Microsoft controller, but pink. Also don’t like that the back is white, but that’s not Amazon problem. ... show more

  • Rating Based On Black Controller - See Red Controller Comments
Style: Controller Color: Pulse Red
12/20/24: Update based on Black xBox Core Wireless Controller. Love it!! The red one is ugly and awful. You can't see the button markings because they're all red on black, who does this??? But the Black one is perfect. The button markings are different colors making them easy to distinguish if you're coming from a Nintendo Pro Controller. Would prefer all white button markings but this works well for me because at least I can see them while gaming. 11/28/24: Early review that will be updated as my use reveals new things. Bought this controller because it was available and I could get it right away. I normally play with my Black Nintendo Pro Controller and it works everywhere I need it to on my Steam games. Got a fix / patch recently that kept me from using my boat and this controller, after I updated it, learned how to use it with the button configuration differences saved me. I'm playing again and happy. It performs well for now and I am cautiously optimistic based on the reviews, but I immediately ordered two in Black so I can move this one to emergency use only. Meanwhile I have a controller that works with my boat and Happy Thanksgiving to me. Playing my heart out since last night after setting it up. Buy direct from Amazon, sold and shipped, and you'll probably get a good one. I'll report back later. That said, what brainiac at Microsoft thought it would be a good idea to make a two tone controller with white, on the back yet. hello, dirty all the time, and yes, you don't see it, but it hurts my eyes which is why I play with black controllers. Very light sensitive here. Microsoft must not understand that there are other folks like me out there. Fine the design team needs to get out more. ... show more

  • Feels great, Works great, Stick drift always happens eventually though.
Style: Controller Color: Carbon Black
I really love the design of the xbox controller. Feels great in your hands, everything is responsive, holds up well, except for the joysticks. The joysticks fail always, sometimes pretty quick other times it takes half a year or longer. Really this is a problem with any joysticks because they are moving parts, the potentiometers lose their conductivity with friction and produce unreliable outputs. I wouldn't be bothered by this, but the joysticks aren't made in a reparable way and they also aren't Hall effect sticks. If you could swap the potentiometers easily that would be great, I have several of these controllers that I don't want to take the time to desolder and repair, rather just buy a new one. If Microsoft replaces these with Hall effect sticks though I'd be content, hopefully they will be on their next model as they become more popular. Overall great controller, just doesn't hold up as well as I would hope. ... show more

  • Beautiful Deep Blue Color
Style: Controller Color: Sky Cipher
Beautiful controller, love the blue color - wish they made a dark green translucent controller like from the original Xbox days. Battery life is excellent, I prefer to use AA batteries as they are easy to swap and don't have to worry about charging. Works great with both my Series X and my PC laptop. ... show more

  • Very good, I hope it won't break within a year.
Style: Controller Color: Carbon Black
I don't see any problems so far, he's connected to my xbox series s and to a computer via Bluetooth. For some reason, when I opened the box, it was covered in dust and dirt. I just test it, but I really like its versatility that it can be connected to an xbox and a PC. I also know that it can be connected to android, but I don't need it. ... show more
