Just received in mail. So far so good. I have close up pictures of the controller as proof to it being the newer model. 3.5mm headphone jack, textured grip (tiny raised dots on the smooth plastic is noticeable on fingertips but not palms), new sensitive bumpers makes clicking it down 100% easier than old style (look is identical though), Bluetooth pairing instructions for Windows 10 in manual and of course the colors of analog sticks and buttons blend in seemlessly for that simple, yet attractive look.
Other than that, it's a controller. So the performance and quality can only be reviewed from extensive use but I will say it came in all Microsoft packaging. Which means I can expect the same results as my original black old style controller which is built fine and still works.
Hope this helps! Cheers
I was in need for a new Xbox one controller as I was still using the controller I got from my original Xbox one back in 2014. The right bumper was the reason I purchased this controller (I blame assassins creed origins for their terrible idea to make RB the attack button) and it was definitely worth it. The design feels a lot more sturdy and the look is sleek. Hopefully it can hold up, but for now it's working great. And that new RB button? Works great. I really am enjoying this controller.
One of best controller in the market.
Ain't cheap but worth it for frequent gamer, since alternative cost much more with fraction of improvement.
I primarily use it for my pc gaming. It works well with an adapter.
Bluetooth is unreliable and will cause frustration and headaches.
My gaming experience won't be same without it.
It feels superior compared to other controllers.
Doesn't fare well against drop compared to Xbox 360 controller.
It works great like the one that came with my system. Well made, great colors. Only thing I noticed is that my headphones are not as loud with this controller as with my original controller. Whether or not it is a one off problem or an across the board problem with this model I don't know. If the headphone problem is not an issue this is a great contriller.
Nice color scheme variation of the standard wireless controller. Got this for PC gaming, does the trick, bluetooth works like a charm.

Enjoy Custom button mapping and up to twice the wireless range. Plug in any compatible headset with the 3.5mm stereo headset jack.

Awesome for PC use.
Function:
Connection is strong, had no issues with signal strength or input lag. Works perfectly with my PC on windows 10.
Feel:
The textured grip on the back of the handles feels very nice. Buttons are well made and don't jiggle like on the PowerA controllers, triggers feel nice as normal, and the shoulder buttons feel like they will last (usually the first part that goes) D-Pad is well made too.
Design:
Green under the joysticks is very vivid, the grey makes a good contrast. Maybe I will pick up a custom controller with a throwback color scheme aligned with the original XBOX or 360.
Conclusion:
Great controller, Microsoft really moved forward without messing anything up, which is almost impossible for big companies. These controllers will last me years.
I truly have no problems with this controller minus a few picks. It's exactly what you expect from Microsoft. Build quality is excellent, feel is great, features plentiful.
This is a product of Microsoft, so I expected nothing but greatness.
This one features bluetooth, something my worn out Lunar edition controller did not, and a headphone jack?!
At least my controller keeps the headphone jack!
My only picks with this is the grip, and color. Grip is rather a textured, perhaps, dimpled plastic surface on the back of the controller. This works, but the rubberized grip of my previous controller is missed. And the green. I just want a bit more! But, that's not a complaint.
Buy this controller, or just any controller by Microsoft. I've never been disappointed in 12+ years.
This newer version of the Xbox One controller is a great upgrade from the original XB1 controller. They've added a tactile grip which makes it feel more secure in your hands, and it also seems more sturdy and well-made. Also, the on/off button on the original controller was so bright it was distracting if you were playing a game with the lights low or turned off in your room. They've addressed that issue by making the light much more dim. This is a definite upgrade from an already excellent controller.
Having owned Xbox 360, dualshock 3, and dualshock 4 controllers, I decided to finally buy an Xbox One controller and see what I've been missing out on. I gotta say this is the most comfortable controller I've ever used. It's lighter than the DS4 and 360 controllers but is slightly larger than both of them. The triggers are large and concave so my fingers fit snug into them. The buttons have a good clicky feel to them, and the d-pad is much improved from the 360.
The force feedback is the best I've experienced yet. In Forza Horizon 4 when I use the LT for heavy braking, the force feedback activates strongly on the left side and it's like I can feel the weight of the car through my hands. It blew my mind...in fact as I type this i can still feel the after effects of the force feedback. Is that a good thing? I say yes.
This controller also connects to my generic cheap Chinese bluetooth dongle I bought from Amazon some time ago. I use the dongle to connect my DS4, but now I use it for this controller as well. Setting it up was as easy as going into the bluetooth settings in W10 and holding down the little connect button between LB and RB. Another thing is that the controller can be turned off the same way the DS4 can: by holding down the middle button. With the 360 controller you have to pull the battery pack if it's wireless.
So this controller is a great upgrade from the 360 controller, and a good side-grade for the dualshock 4. Not having to buy a separate wireless USB connector/dongle is great as it'll work off bluetooth.
My only con as that the right trigger on my controller scrapes against some sort of plastic on the inside. It makes an audible sound when I pull the trigger all the way and I can feel it scraping against whatever it is. It doesn't effect its usability though so I'm fine with it.
If you're looking up reviews for this controller, I'm not sure what you expect.
If you bought a newer version of the Xbox One, it's the standard controller that came with it, except its grey with hints of green.
If you dont like grey or green, then don't buy this. If don't have a controller for some reason, then buy this. You will need it play with the Xbox.
