Revision: First, I would note that the new controller could be a new version. Because the battery compartment or the cap has changed slightly. In the previous controllers, you could completely remove the batteries to integrate the battery compartment. In this version, you can open the lid and fold a little backwards, after having the cap slightly pulled out. But you can stop this no longer take out completely. I think it's not very beneficial, because the angle is quite spacious enough, so it is a bit fiddly job to stow the rear battery. Otherwise seems optically changed nothing to have.
I have followed since the first Xbox beginning two thousand the development of controllers and find the Xbox One version is the best version yet. The trigger Motor is a successful invention, which simulates the trigger in shooters what the gaming experience again provides to a higher level , From playful vision make such features really make sense.
The "trigger buttons RT / LT are ergonomically perfectly to the finger, so that the fingers to the bone angle perfectly insert. The beaten bow outward thus ensures a perfect fit, without the need to create back pressure.
The control sticks with their coating also ensure even with sweaty hands when adrenaline is discharged in hectic battles for a perfect fit. Since the side edges of the sticks are highly roughened by a pattern that verhintert slipping in critical moments.
The term itself is really long with discounters batteries of "AeroCell". Say 10-12 hours are therefore already feasible.
It really is a joy to play with the controller. Both the maturity, quality of workmanship and the ergonomic handling speak for themselves, at least for me.
