That looks gorgeous. I was tempted by the black one but there were some nice deals on the original controller so I never got it. Might bite this if real.

Yeah Phantom Black is already out.

Get both and swap the buttons, analogs and Dpad and the frankensteins we create will be glorious.

Im so tempted to get one as soon as it drops just so I can swap the internals>
But my Phantom Black was already a luxury I couldnt justify twice.....for white.

Oh wow. When did this come out?

Also, hey if you mix and match, you've still got two controllers. Ya know, for when stick drift happens. Gotta always have an extra ya know ;)

Now I can finally see where the issue is when a button inevitably breaks

Uh, do xbox one buttons usually break? I thought it was usually triggers and sticks?

Wow! I just 'collect' Xbox One controllers and I only have 4 haha. I used to have a Halo 5 controller (the blue one) but I sold it because I needed the money :(
To be honest, I can only find 17 of the regular wireless controllers now. I know I'm missing the Forza Motorsport one and the Dusk Shadow one. I'm not sure where they'd be.
Oh shit that looks sick! I want more of these type of gradients.
Yeah, that's why I made sure to get all of the "Shadow" series, and these "Phantom" controllers feel like an extension of those. I love the way they look.

I love these Phantom controllers. I almost bought the black one the other day but ended up with the PUBG controller.

I'm a controller fiend.

Damn that looks nice. I hope that MS allows one controllers to be forward compatible with the new system. Probably not, but man the one controller is a solid design.

That looks incredibly stylish. I just grabbed the Sport White controller, and the red version is right on the horizon. Microsoft truly makes the best controllers in the business, style and comfort-wise.

That's one of the nicest controllers I've ever seen. Got a thing for translucent hardware.

Dunno what to think...but I think I like it. I rather wish that the whole controller was that transparent style.

Damn. I would have totally gotten this instead of my standard black one if it had been sold at the same time...

Good shit. Ms really nailed hardware design this gen. I hope they continue this trend with next gen, clean and simple.

That's pretty good looking actually. I would definitely consider it as a replacement for my current controller.

Looks nice but I hope MS fixes the main four buttons next gen and make them more flat like the PS4 and Xbox 360 controller. It gets very uncomfortable pressing on the Xbox One buttons after a long play period.
