    • Great controller as always
Style: Pulse Red
Beautiful color! Only thing I wish is that the back was not white. Would look better as black or whatever but I understand they're doing this for pretty much all of their new controllers now. Standardization or whatever. Feels good. Plays great. Xbox layout is by far the best layout. I got this on sale for $40 and it was an absolute steal. It's still worth it at its normal price. ... show more

    • Good controllers, easy to use, but there's a slightly cheap quality feel..
Style: Robot White
I love the look and feel, and it's very easy to use on PC. You just connect it via bluetooth (turn on bluetooth, start searching for devices, turn on the controller, and press the little button on top towards the back (on top of the battery pack). You can immediately use it from there. My only concern is the cheap-ish feel of the grip part of the controller. If you squeeze the left and right sides of the handles, you'll feel the grip part of the controller creak easily. Makes the controller feel less durable overall. But other than that I loved using it. It's worth grabbing on a sale if you like or are interested in using controllers for steam games. Edit: I only noticed now, but the LB button isn't crisp and feels as though it's slightly broken. I just thought it was position/angle of my finger when trying to press it but today after experimenting, it's definitely a bit scuffed. It's functional but requires 2x the force to press than RB. RB is perfect and clicks just fine, but LB does not click that well when you press it. It's like pressing a button that had a bit of soda or something spill on it and dry up, making it feel a bit "viscous" when you press it down if that makes any sense. (And no I did not spill soda on it, I 0don't eat or drink anything anywhere near my setup, that's just poor manners and recipe for disaster. ... show more

    • Perfect
Style: Pulse Red
This Xbox wireless controller is fantastic. The color is bold and looks even better in person. It feels solid and comfortable in the hands, with smooth buttons and responsive triggers that make gameplay feel effortless. It paired quickly and works flawlessly with no lag or connection issues. Battery life is great and it performs exactly as expected. Perfect for long gaming sessions and definitely worth the purchase. Highly recommend. ... show more

    • A good quality Xbox controller at a fair price
Style: Shock Blue
Review Image by Troy Troy
I was satisfied with this controller. I ordered it over the holidays and was prepared to wait, however, the seller got it to me in a timely fashion. After about 30 minutes of use, I can confirm that it functions perfectly. I ordered an Xbox controller, I got an Xbox controller, and it doesn't have any issues so I see no reason not to give a 5 star review! If you are considering buying an Xbox controller, Then I recommend going through this seller for it. ... show more

    • The Essential Controller, Now Perfected
Style: Carbon Black + USB-C Cable
I’ve been an Xbox and PC gamer for years, and the Xbox Wireless Gaming Controller (2025) is, without a doubt, the best version of this iconic design yet. The addition of the included USB-C cable in this bundle makes it a complete, hassle-free package for any setup. The finish is sleek, but the real star is the textured grip on the triggers, bumpers, and back case. It feels fantastic—secure, comfortable, and prevents any slips during long, sweaty gaming sessions. The size and weight are perfectly balanced, reducing hand fatigue. The hybrid D-pad is a major improvement, especially for fighting games and platformers. It offers the precision of a cross-pad for cardinal directions while still being comfortable for rolling motions. It’s snappy, responsive, and a true upgrade. The Bluetooth connectivity is rock-solid and pairs effortlessly with my PC, laptop, and even my iPad for cloud gaming. Having the included 9-foot USB-C cable means I can play wired for zero latency on my PC when I need that competitive edge, or just use it to charge/play if my AA batteries run low. It’s plug-and-play simplicity. The dedicated Share button seems small, but it's incredibly useful for quickly grabbing screenshots and video clips without pausing the action. It's perfectly placed and genuinely saves time. If you are looking for a reliable, comfortable, and versatile controller for your Xbox or PC, this is the one to get. This iteration refines an already excellent design, and this bundle gives you everything you need right out of the (X)box. ... show more

    • Worked great, but headfone jack not perfect
Style: Carbon Black + USB-C Cable
Got this because all the hacks for the old Turtle Beach PX21 wired seemed crappy. This is much cleaner for just 10 bucks more. Might spend part of that for a break-away fitting so i dont ruin the controller. Controls worked perfect, but the headfone jack seating for the headset is a little off. Had to really crank it in there. Does seem to work better on the One with the setting on PS. Turtle Beach Recon 200 Gen 2 Powered Gaming Headset ... show more

    • Solid Controller

I bought this for pc gaming (steam) and when I took it out of the box, I was a bit concerned about the buttons getting stuck but, after an hour of constant use, everything seems to work just fine. The buttons responded like they should be... I'll update this review if any issues occur, but for now, it seems like a really solid controller. *Note: the triggers are a bit "small".
