Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller - Remix Special Edition is a specialized version of the brand's wireless controller for the Xbox family of gaming consoles, including the latest Series X and Series S. It stands out due to the use of recycled plastic, from which most of the device is made. Otherwise, this is a completely familiar, well-proven controller with a Microsoft-style layout, which is the main alternative to controllers for Sony consoles. Unlike the DualShock and DualSense, the Xbox Wireless Controller has an asymmetrical left stick and d-pad, and instead of a pair of horizontal bumper buttons, there are vertical triggers. Textured coatings on the triggers, bumpers and back cover provide a more secure grip, the 8-way hybrid D-pad ensures maximum precision and clarity while moving...the game character, and a separate audio output allows you to connect headphones so as not to distract household members if you play late in the evening or early in the morning. Plus, the presence of a wireless connection (Bluetooth + radio) allows you to use the gamepad on a PC and mobile devices with iOS and Android operating systems. The Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller can be powered by either a pair of AA batteries or a built-in battery, which is not included with the Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller. Battery life depends on connection type and use of additional accessories. A standard USB-C cable is used for charging. It can also be used for direct connection to a PC or console.

Model overview based on user reviews  
The Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller – Remix Special Edition is a well-regarded gamepad compatible with multiple platforms, including PC, Android, iOS, and Xbox, featuring Bluetooth/radio interface and a 10-meter range. Users appreciate its precise handling and quality vibrations, making it ideal for games like Forza Horizon 5. The controller's unique color and eco-friendly design, made from recycled materials, add to its appeal. However, some users have noted issues with packaging quality and minor cosmetic imperfections, such as smudges and scratches, which can detract from the overall experience. The controller does not include batteries, and the provided 1400 mAh battery may not suffice for extended use, though AA batteries can be used for longer playtime. Despite these concerns, the controller is praised for its performance and originality, making it a worthwhile consideration for gamers.

The perfect option for a Windows PC.
28 July 2024 
It looks and feels like a quality item, with engineers and designers putting effort into even the smallest details. Overall, the gamepad is comfortable and balanced. I used Logitech gamepads for many years and they were fine, but after playing with this gamepad for a month and then picking up a Logitech, the difference was very noticeable, especially in the operation of the sticks and triggers. The triggers move smoothly without rattling, and the sticks also move noticeably smoother than those on Logitech and have almost no dead zone.

Connected without any problems via the TP-Link UB500 adapter to Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 21H2 (I heard there were issues specifically with LTSC).
Well-optimized for Windows, quickly integrates with the system, and operates stably. It has 3 connection options. A major advantage is the ability to choose an independent power source (battery, AA batteries, AA rechargeable batteries). Well-balanced in terms of functionality and autonomy. Feels comfortable and even somewhat pleasant in the hands.
When connected to a PC, it is impossible to adjust the brightness of the LED on the gamepad. The headphone jack does not work when connected via a standard Bluetooth adapter. Loud D-pad. The described drawbacks are absolutely non-critical and go unnoticed against the background of the advantages.

A good gamepad for PC. The lack of a battery included is disappointing.
5 February 2022 
Good gamepad, no connection issues.
1) Looks stylish, fits comfortably in hand
2) No issues with connection, whether via Bluetooth or cable - immediately visible in any game
3) Well-built, solid construction without gaps or spaces
4) No problems when used on Windows 10 LTSC, personally used it on a previous laptop (Windows Store installs perfectly on LTSC).
1) Battery not included. Batteries last a week. Original battery costs 1700 rubles, non-original - from 1200 rubles.
2) Loud buttons, sticks, and D-pad. When playing at night, it’s very loud and can be heard in the next room.
3) Price. Purchased in April 2021, it was 4100. Now it costs 6000 rubles.

i don’t need a console anymore, I play games on a PC, but the prices are very high
27 January 2022 
for playing with 2 controllers, I recommend the following games (buy on Steam because Steam has software for controller management; games from torrent distribution might malfunction in control):

- Dirt 5 (racing) - up to 4 players on PC
- FIFA (the 22nd was disappointing because they removed Russia - Russophobia in action)
- A Way Out (prison escape)
- It Takes Two (if you're a fan of cartoons)
- Grip: Combat Racing (racing)
- Drag Outer Zones (racing)
- Monster Jam Steel Titans 2 (big foot trucks)
- Split/Second (old graphics)
- Mortal Kombat 11 (fighting)
- Tekken 7 (fighting)
- Left 4 Dead 2 (old graphics/zombie apocalypse) - up to 4 players on PC

Recommend fighting games like UFC, if any are available, not only on Steam but with split-screen support and 2 controllers.
- almost completely replaces the console - 99% (slightly lacks some titles on a split screen and controller support in all games)
- easy connectivity - ability to play two-player games on a split screen on a 28-inch screen
- almost all buttons work (if game developers have enabled it) - discharge slowly if turned off (press the central button and hold for 10 sec)
- in Windows 10, the charge percentage of each joystick is displayed
- Controllers work correctly only via Steam (Steam has software for controller management).
- Sometimes the controller constantly disconnects (to fix it, you need to remove unnecessary devices from the "Other" section and connect the controllers one by one via USB Type-C for synchronization) - this issue occurred when connecting two.
- You need to buy 2 AA rechargeable batteries and a Duracell charging station for each controller (this is cheaper than chargers and batteries for controllers) (I have some left from Xbox 360) - overpriced (bought for 5k each) - it's a rip-off.
- Some games do not support controllers (this is on Steam; if you play torrents, you'll have broken controls).
