Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller and Cable for Windows – Cable for Windows included – Wireless – Bluetooth – Xbox One exclusive – 9 ft cable length

I was reluctant to buy this controller for my PC because I had an X-Box 360 controller I had gotten used to (which had subsequently broken), and this seemed to have a somewhat different form factor. Since Microsoft doesn’t make the 360 version anymore, I thought I’d give this one a shot.

The first one had a finnicky “A” button, so I returned it and the replacement I got works perfectly. Controls are tight and responsive, the analog sticks are definitely different than the 360 version and took a little getting used to, but I can see why so many people like these ones better. I almost took a star off for not being closer to the older form factor, but I decided that would be unfair, and honestly this controller feels more comfortable every time I use it. It’s less bulky and more streamlined.

There are a few major advantages you’re gonna have with this controller– to start, being a Microsoft controller, you KNOW it’ll be compatible with the vast majority of PC games, esp. games on Steam; so there’s no need to worry about downloading external drivers like with the PS4 controller, or hoping whatever off-brand controller you’ve bought is compatible with all your games. You plug this thing in, it works. Period. And tons of modern games are designed with an X-Box controller in mind anyway. No fuss, no hassle.

Second– hallelujah, the D-Pad on this thing is actually USABLE. I even prefer using it to the analog stick for some games, shockingly. The D-Pad on the 360 controller was trash; really only good for selecting weapons/options for your character and stuff like that. This new one, while not as good as say your typical Nintendo or Playstation controller, is pretty darn decent.

Third — and this is important — the cable connecting your controller to your PC is removable. The reason I trashed my old 360 controller is because there was some kind of break in the controller wire, which meant it couldn’t reliably keep a connection with my PC. Seems like that should be a relatively small problem, but my controller was well out of warranty, and I didn’t know how to fix it or remove and replace the cable myself (looking up how-to videos on youtube showed me it would have been WAY too much hassle). But guess what? That’ll never be a problem on this controller since if the controller wire ever did break, it takes all of 3 seconds to unplug the broken cable and plug in a new one. So unless Microsoft stops making USB wires for this thing, you should be golden. One less potential issue to worry about.

Overall I highly recommend this thing. Without going into a higher tier like the Elite series, you’re likely not going to find a better controller for your PC for the money.

I always prefer gaming system play, but I could only afford a computer, so as a compromise I like using a controller. I have gone through about 3 wireless controllers in 2 years so I finally realized I should just stick to a wired one. This one is great because it has the option to be used wirelessly or to plug in. Its been 8+ years and its still going strong.

I love the long cord and love that it can be used wirelessly (though I haven’t tried it so far). It would be great if it came with some way to roll/store the long cord, as that is a bit of a problem for me, but not a deal breaker.

I ordered this for my pc after not being able to satisfactorily use my ps4 controllers or a crappy aftermarket wireless controller I bought on it. It’s designed for Xbox, but works better than ANYTHING I’ve tried on pc (every other controller I have tried loses connection and lags)

I have been gaming since the Atari joysticks of the early 80’s, and this is a fairly solid build. (feels like it’ll survive well under normal use)

Personal criticisms are all ergonomic (these are ALL based on personal preference and opinion – I have played primarily on Playstation controllers since there were such things, and am not generally used to xbox controllers): The grip on the controller is different than what I’m used to. If you’re moving over from Playstation tech, expect some adjustment time. The menu keys aren’t casually in reach like they are on a PS controller… some games would be easier if they were. The left thumb knob is out of place if you’re used to a ps controller. Gives my thumb cramps, but I’m sure it’s, again, a personal adjustment issue.

It is NOT wireless out of the box, but comes with a very long cable. There is a wireless transmitter (around $18) that you can buy for it if you have dogs or kids that trip over your cables, or some other reason why a 15 foot cable won’t do the job. I have not yet purchased said transmitter.

The only game I’ve played on it, so far, is Cyberpunk 2077, which plays an awful lot like Grand Theft Auto if I may say so.
