Review: REVIEW WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT INFO OF THIS XBOX CONTROLLER!! - Good packaging, it wrinkled a little because I used desertcart prime with free shipping. Easy to connect to Windows 11 PC, it literally only took me less than 5 minutes + a Youtube tutorial to use it with Bluetooth. It comes with AA batteries, they are not rechargeable, but they are of very good quality. I was playing Naruto Storm 4 on PC for 3 hours and it didn't go below 100%. They are from my Duracell brand. (I write this a week after buying the controller: the AA batteries have not discharged yet, they continue to work at 100%, without failures, with more than 6 hours of play during the last week, that is, they are very good) It comes with a code to configure the controller on the PC. It comes with a manual on how to connect it to the PC safely in case you can't find a tutorial, even so, the Bluetooth mode is the best. The grip, the quality of the buttons, plastics and so on is of good quality. The paint is also of good quality. It is not metal, it is plastic with a metal design similar to gold. It responds well to PC games, and the PC detects it very easily, since the PC with wind 11 and 10. They already come with those configurations. I don't know previous versions. Yes, if you buy it from this link or sections, you will receive the original and not the Renewed version from desertcart. The renewed one from desertcart comes with some system failures, there is nothing at the moment. Additionally, in the description of this page it tells you that the manufacturer is Microsoft. Otherwise, with the other page that tells you that the manufacturer is desertcart. The lowest price I found it at was $54, on desertcart prime day it is $56. On black Friday I don't know. If you want to use it at night, the buttons tend to make a lot of noise, especially A,X,B,Y. They sound a lot. On the other hand, it can be connected to PS2, PS3, Wii etc. emulators. Just look for the option that says Xinput or something similar in the current emulator. In my case, I'm playing God of War One on PS3 and it works great with the controller. The same on the PS2, I already did some tests on that one too.
