I believe youre thinking of the Xbox one model controllers. The photos are showing these are the new 'redesigned' series X model with that extra button, and $79 price tag. I've used both, they are slightly different, and I would prefer the minor improvements in the series X design over the one. This is listed as an Xbox one controller however. Not sure which part of the listing is inaccurate. I believe the 2 button Xbox one controllers are likely ending shelf life with this replacing them.

I grabbed a series x controller before christmas for $59 (which is compatible with xbox one btw), so they do get down to that price on occasion, but like OP says, this is pretty good if you need one right now.

I'm talking about the newer Xbox one controller they you can use on PC etc as well with bt. My bad, is this a different one ?

the older Xbone o e is such a junk controller. Can't believe the mushiness of the buttons, my Dreamcast controller has more springiness. It's shocking to see such mushy buttons when the rest of the build is solid.

But I do see them going into the 50s less often now.

Honestly have no idea about most of what you said here. I see 4 controllers being talked about and no idea what the difference between series one and series two and core and one models

My bad, I fixed my reply. I think this some newer one for the series x. I don't know the differences really either. Xbox had made all their stuff so confusing.

Thx...$10 saved is still $10 saved :-)

When have these been down to $50. the Series controllers are more expensive than the One controllers ($75vs$60) and the discounts are the same ~$15.

The Series controllers go down to $60 and the Ones used to go down to $50

20x points at Shoppers this weekend and they sell these. You need a filler to get to $75 though as these are $74.99.

Yesh for sure - i didn't realise it was a series x controller being as it's called Xbox one core controller...my bad.

A reminder is that iOS is going to support it by 14.5. But not now yet. You can try 14.5 beta if you can’t wait.

I bought this a couple of weeks back, got it delivered in less than a week. Can't remember if it was on backorder then also but shows 3 to 5 days now.

I'd love for the price to go back down to $50 though.

One can dream.

Nothing special about this controller. I have 3 of them.

I have one from my Series X, and got one for $54.99 when Amazon.Ca listed them for presale at that price for some reason. Both developed sticky triggers, but I started an exchange process for the first one before the 2nd one developed the issue. Xbox sent me a free controller and I didn’t have to ship back the faulty one.

Because the issue was the same on both, and felt “sticky”, I opened up a controller to realize Microsoft put a small foam pad under the trigger for cushion. It is TINY. The glue under it gets warm and liquify after prolonged use, and thus that’s where the “stickiness” was from. Such a bad design flaw.

Anyways, it’s a “meh” controller for me. Gets the job done. But honestly doesn’t feel “premium”, it just feels “good”.

Edit: I should note that I fixed the issue by removing the foam pad and using alcohol to remove the remaining glue. My triggers are not silent anymore when pressed down fully, but they don’t stick and I got a free controller out of it.

Needed a gift for sons friend and thats what he wanted so it was perfect timing thanks.

I just a want a good controller for PC, but I can't make heads of tails of which xbox controller to buy now. I kinda wish you could still get wired 360 controllers for cheap so I could save the hassle.

The controller in the OP is decent enough for PC gaming. Native support in Windows 10 and supported by basically every game. You could run a long USB cord if you prefer wired. Or connect via Bluetooth or the USB adapter.
