Two new Xbox One controllers, Phantom Black and Grey/Blue, announced
- Thread starter chadskin
- Start date
MS knew exactly what they were doing with all these colors. I feel like every few weeks I see a new color popping up. I don't even own an Xbox anymore and I still am tempted to grab one of these. Luckily I still have my Elite.
A phantom black console could be nice. The trans blue playstation is nice.
I've always wished that we had the ability to customize our own Xbox in the Xbox design lab too.
Imagine.. for just $50-$100 more (whatever how MS price it), we can customize our S/X models. I would do it all white or blue/black for my X. Yet, other websites like colorware does that although it's expensive ($100-$300 more).

So did the Phantom Black actually come out today? Amazon emailed me a few hours ago to delay my order into next month and GS site is showing 9/30.
That's what happened to me at Gamestop. Well have to use my Locke controller for a few weeks now.
Has there been any official word on the delay? MS tweeted yesterday that they were now available, but like some others here my Amazon order had a delay approval request yesterday and is now showing Sept 30 - Oct 30. The two Microsoft stores here are showing Unavailable Stock. So did MS just decide to give themselves the only sales outlet for a couple weeks?
The white looks a bit more gold at certain angles, but that was probably to do with my lighting. Was busy and slept early so I didn't get a chance to actually use it. I'll take some pictures and post them this afternoon if no one else does.
Edit: more gray/silver and not gold.

I'll just quote myself from the most recent Pick Up Post thread.
I love the way it looks. I played Shadow of the Tomb Raider exclusively while using it; thought it "fit" the game (yes, I am that much of a dork). I believe, not including 3rd party controllers (such as the Duke), that this is the 20th controller I now have for the Xbox One.
I really like the look of it, and think the "gradient translucent" thing it has going on makes it fit in nicely with the "shadow" controllers. I just hope that paint on the bottom doesn't like... flake off or something in the future.
Finally got mine.
Pretty cool. But it feels so rough against the ocean shadow. That thing has a velvet touch.
