  • Very excellent!
Style: Controller Color: Ghost Cipher
I’m extremely happy with this Xbox Special Edition Controller I purchased on Amazon. The design is absolutely stunning in person — even better than in the pictures. It feels very comfortable to hold, with great grip and smooth, responsive buttons. The build quality is excellent, and it connects perfectly via Bluetooth without any issues. I’ve used it both on my Xbox and my PC, and the performance has been flawless. The textures on the triggers and bumpers give it a premium feel, and the special edition colors really make it stand out. If you’re looking for a controller that works great and also looks incredible, this is definitely worth it. I highly recommend it to any gamer! ... show more

  • Stunning design and build
Style: Controller Color: Pulse Cipher
I absolutely love the design of this controller! Red is my favorite color, so I pulled the trigger on that one, and I absolutely love it! It works great, and on thing to mention is the build quality, it has rubberized grips that feel great in your hands, as well as some knurling on the triggers so that they don’t slip. Great purchase, and totally worth the price! ... show more

  • One Controller for All My Devices – Works Perfectly!
Style: Controller Color: Carbon Black
I'm really impressed with the Xbox Wireless Controller (2025). The Carbon Black design looks sleek and feels great to hold. What I love most is how easily it connects to everything—my Xbox, Windows PC, Android phone, and even my Fire TV Stick. No lag, no hassle. It’s super responsive and works great for both casual and competitive gaming. Definitely worth it if you want one controller for all your devices! ... show more

  • Best Xbox Controller Yet — Smooth, Comfortable, and Super Responsive
Style: Controller Color: Carbon Black
This new 2025 version of the Xbox Wireless Controller is easily the best one I’ve used. The grip feels even more comfortable than the previous model, and the textured triggers and bumpers make a big difference during intense gameplay. The hybrid D-pad is a huge improvement—it’s way more accurate for fighting games and quick inputs. I love how easy it is to switch between my Xbox, PC, and phone with Bluetooth and Xbox Wireless built in. It connects almost instantly and stays solid during long sessions. The new Share button is a nice bonus too—makes it super quick to capture clips. Battery life is excellent (still around 40 hours), and you can use USB-C for direct connection or rechargeable kits. If you're a serious gamer or just want a reliable, high-quality controller, this one’s a no-brainer. ... show more

  • Love the red!

  • Bought NEW came with an open seal
Style: Controller Color: Robot White
Would not recommend, bought this controller as NEW shipped and sold by amazon but it came with an open seal. battery status indicator does not work on xbox hud. All what customer service told me was: please accept our apology. Update: I think the controller was still new even with the open seal it smelled very new and the controller is working great. I think the faulty battery indicator is a windows problem. Love this controller for my pc makes playing games like uncharted and the last of us and spiderman way easier then with mouse and keyboard, I love it!!! 🥳🥳🥳🤩😍🥰🥰 the robot white looks great. I would recommend this controller! 🎮🥳👍 I give it only 4 Stars because of the open seal otherwise the controller would have deserved 5 Stars. Great buy! 🥰🎮🥳👍 ... show more

  • I recommend this product.
Style: Controller Color: Carbon Black
I am not used to an XBOX controller as I played mostly PS over the years. But I love this controller here. Just a regular controller I am using for PC. Build is solid with firm plastic. It is affordable for a lot of budgets. Functions as it should. Can be further customized beyond this but why would you really need to? This one covers everything for me. The rest of extras if I chose them would just be cosmetic. Thankfully, this is a solid product. Thank you. ... show more

  • The best official controller you can get without going pro
Style: Controller Color: Sky Cipher
First of all, this controller is gorgeous. Unless you just don't care, pay the cost to upgrade to one of these nicer colors for a few bucks and enjoy the lovely controller when not in use. The controling is not consistent however with different colors on different pieces that contrast and clash, so if you don't like that, not the controller for you. Second of all, the clicking on this controller's D-Pad is LOUD so if that drives you crazy, maybe not the controller for you. It's a very clickety clackety controller. Third of all, battery tech and weight and controller drift do not seem to have been meaningfully advanced. Still taking AA batteries and no hall effect sticks. But you can use this with a PC? just like a 360 controller and switch to a cable if your batteries run dry, so it's arguably still one of the best built and versatile controllers money can buy for the price. If you don't need elite features and treat it gently so as not to cause stick drift, you ought to be very satisfied. It's comfortable and durable and worth the cost. Oh yeah and did I mention the the new transparent controllers are gorgeous??? ... show more
