Really nice piece of kit.

Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2016

I got this to replace my PS4 controller on my PC, which was having a bunch of lag issues on bluetooth noted by the software I was using and this has proved to be a far better experience.

I miss the trackpad of the PS4 controller which let me manipulate windows just fine but now I have no lag and the controller is solid. I was worried about the dpad being crap since microsoft has never gotten one to be good, they've all been crap from the first Xbox to the 360, now? The dpad worked fine for me in a playthrough of Mega Man X, good enough for me.

The buttons feel nice, the sticks feel solid and this must be a newer model since the bumpers are fully clickable and not 'hinged' like the launch version was. As I said the dpad is nice and clicky and feels solid. The controller in general feels really solid, better than the 360 and PS3 pads I've had the pleasure of using.

It's been a solid experience, the battery life with a set of enloop batteries has been great, haven't had to charge them yet and it's had to be over 20 hours of use vs having to charge my PS4 controller every 5-6 hours (arghh). I've played Resident Evil: Remastered & 5 & 6, Sonic Generations, Sonic the Hedgehog, Freedom Planet, Megaman X, Shantae and the Pirates Curse, Just Cause 3, it's been great.

Luckily they were smart and the games that look for a Xbox 360 controller identify the XB1 controller as a 360 pad. So MS is keeping with the standard they set and I've had no issues with games detecting the controller.

My only complaint is the price of the controller, or maybe the wireless adapter, $25 is steep for that wireless accessory...You can nab a bluetooth adapter for $8-15 but because MS had to go with some wacky proprietary thing it costs us extra. The other thing is, I think there's supposed to be rumble in the triggers but I've not had any game that either supported this or this feature is simply not supported on PC which is a bit of a shame. (Let me know if there's a game on PC that supports it if you know! :) )

Whatever, it beats the lag issues I had and this is now one of the best controllers I've used on my PC.

Great for big hands

Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2016

Verified Purchase

I was so close to buying the DS4 controller for PC gaming. My logic was: it's cheaper, it looks better, and the touchpad might make a decent terrible mouse.

But I've got a DS2 controller in front of me, and no matter how I position my hands (which are apparently gigantic by Sony standards; 9" from thumb tip to pinkie tip), it's impossible to accurately use the analog sticks and the triggers at the same time. There's just not enough controller to brace against to keep the thing from tilting. My thumbs naturally fall so the middle of the first digit is over each stick. The DS4 is larger, but not by much.

This controller is the best of the XBox lot. I initially bought the 360 controller, but soon returned it because it had so much slop in the analog sticks. There isn't any with this one. It's accurate, comfortable, solid, and was effortless to set up on my installation of Windows 10. (Put in batteries. Press and hold the white X to turn it on. Long-press the dongle pairing button. Long-press the controller pairing button. Have some cake.) The D-pad has light and positive clicks.

So yeah, it's great. If you're anywhere near palming a basketball, it's the one to buy.

Fantastic! Greatest controller ever?

Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2016

I love this controller. In your hand, it feels like the cadillac of video game controllers. I bought this item for use with my Windows 10 PC (this being an upgrade from my trusty xbox 360 controller). The directional sticks feel fantastic and are textured in a way which is just perfect. The button mechanisms feel very solid (the shoulder triggers have this oh-so-sexy feel to them as well). The whole thing feels great in the hand and the battery life is not only "adequate", but surprisingly long in duration (I also bought the Xbox One Play and Charge Kit and that's what I've been using; I haven't tried regular non-chargeable AA batteries yet). Typically though (in my personal experience), rechargeable batteries generally go dead quicker than normal non-rechargeable consumer-grade batteries, so the fact that the rechargeable ones last so long says quite a bit.

If you're a PC gamer and you want a console-style controller for your games, you've found it!

Oh yeah... If you want the Xbox One Play and Charge Kit that I mentioned, here it is:

Windows 10 Users: Have a Micro USB cable on hand for setup. Watch for driver errors, calibrate. Turn XBOX OFF in Steam.

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2016

This is one finicky but well made controller. Some foibles to note

1. No way of getting this to work with a Windows 10 machine sans micro-USB cable. Adapter/Controller will NOT link otherwise. A mandatory update (by micro-USB cable) will render this functional. Any cable will do. At this stage, Windows should advise when future updates are needed. (I hope, as I'm yet to see one.)
2. Do NOT enable XBox Controller settings in Steam...even if it asks you to. It will literally make some games unplayable. Yes, the irony is evident.
3. I was plagued by disconnects galore. After removing the adapter from a powered USB 3.0 hub and plugging it direct...extending range of motion with included adapter...much better results. Controller literally needed to stare at the adapter.
4. Be on the lookout for random adapter driver issues (if it stops working properly). To confirm, take a gander at the wireless adapter in settings/device manager, ensure the driver is working properly. You may need to remove, reinstall the adapter (by unplug, replug).
5. Finally, I was experiencing some right stick float and needed a calibration. In Windows 10, calibration option is in a weird place (thanks to 'HowtoGeek'): Settings: Devices, Devices and Printers. Select the Controller, Game Controller Settings, and Properties. Last, settings...then Calibrate. I used default settings, but ensured everything was centered.

Four stars for...it works terrific once it works. Minus 1 for 5 workarounds.

Hope this helpful!

El adaptador funciona perfectamente pero este control tiende a tener un problema con los botones LB y RB, después de varios meses de uso empiezan a tronar y alguno de los dos deja de cumplir su función la mayoría de las veces. No a todos les sucede pero recomiendo tener esto en mente, también les recomiendo buscar como alternativa el nuevo modelo del control.

I've never used an Xbox controller before and I have to say it's excellent. It's very comfortable, even with my small hands. This is the updated controller with the 3.5 mm jack and updated bumpers. The xbox controllers are universally the accepted PC controller, and most games will automatically detect the controller without any external programs needed.

First off, the adapter is Windows 10 only. It will not work on any other OS. If that's not a problem then for you, then the adapter is great. The adapter is really wide for some reason though and will block other ports. Thankfully, it comes with an extension cable so this isn't a big deal.

Drivers are automatically installed as soon as it's plugged in. Some people reported problems with not getting the latest drivers when the adapter was first released, but I didn't encounter this. Rumble and wireless audio worked for me right out of the box. Syncing the controller was super easy. Just press a button on the adapter and the controller. Once synced it stays synced. The adapter supports up to eight controllers and 4 head sets.

I haven't experienced any connection issues, but I also haven't test it beyond 6 ft away from my desk since I haven't had the opportunity to do any couch gaming yet.

Also since it took me too long to figure out: holding the xbox button for a bit will open Steam Big Picture (made sure you disable game bar!). Holding the button for longer (~5 sec) will turn off the controller.

Works perfectly, still the #1 supported gamepad in PC games.

I have way too many Xbox controllers around the house considering I've never owned an Xbox of any sort. I have multiple Xbox 360 controllers and the wireless adapter for PC that was released for those quite a long time ago, and already own a few Xbox One controllers which prior to buying this I had to use with long USB cables to connect to my PCs.

The only upside to using these controllers with a USB cable (was not possible at all with the 360 controllers) is that they can operate on USB power only with no batteries required. The downsides are all obvious...cables cables everywhere.

I never had any issues with the old wireless adapter, but it was a bizarre design where it was placed on the end of a long cord even though you hardly ever needed to actually look or touch it. The new design of being a dongle that plugs directly into a USB port and pretty much doesn't get touched or seen again (if at the back of a desktop PC) is better in my opinion. It's easier to move around from PC to PC if you have multiple you game on and just less wires to create nests with.

Getting it to work couldn't have been any easier and was no different than before. Just plug the adapter in and everything was recognized by my PCs and we were off to the races. Haven't had any connectivity issues but have not tested for extreme range beyond what would be practical anyway.

I have no problem recommending this combination as a gamepad solution to PC games (as still, the vast majority of games will directly detect an xbox 360/one controller and give you proper button mappings and on screen prompts without any mucking around).

Good, but I wish the Wireless Adapter worked on other systems besides Windows 10

Reviewed in Canada on November 16, 2015

Verified Purchase

The Xbox One controller is one of the most comfortable and overall better gaming controllers currently on the market. The new version with the improved bumpers and audio jack is further refinement on the initial design. The reason I cannot give 5 stars for this product package is because of 2 things. First I think this controller should come with a rechargeable battery that can charge via USB. Second the Wireless Adapter.

The Wireless Adapter is good in theory once you get it working. However you may encounter driver issues on certain occasions, but it's possible to overcome with a manual update by following some online guides. The biggest issue and this is well know and advertised, is that the Wireless Adapter is only designed for Windows 10. You cannot as of late 2015 use it on any other operating system or platform. Microsoft specifically designed it this way to make people either use Windows 10 or upgrade to Windows 10. I think this is a huge mistake, as there are many reasons why people may want to run this on Android/Linux systems (Steam Link for example) or previous version of Windows (Emulation, Retro-gaming). There are thousands of game titles on other platforms other than Windows 10, that have poor support on Windows 10, but would benefit to have this control work on them using the Wireless Adapter.

You can still use the controller wired with other operating systems, but it's just not the same.
