**UPDATE**
This controller has vibrations in the triggers. It feels weird because I normally don't feel them while I'm using the controller on my PC. Imagine my surprise when I felt the controller triggers vibrating while I was playing Forza 6 on my PC. The impulse triggers work for that game on Windows 10. I hope to see this work on Halo for pc as well.
**UPDATE**
Apparently there is a technique into using the Xbox controller properly, a simple search on YouTube will show you how. In summary, you hold the controller in your hands resting both left and right index fingers on top of the the left and right triggers and keep them there while playing. Once you need to push Left bumper or Right Bumper, simply SLIDE your index finger over to it. This takes a bit of effort to get use to. I'm still sticking to my 4/5 rating.
Also, the rumbles in the triggers are working but not for PC games. The rumbles in the trigger only work when connected to Xbox One it seems.
**UPDATE**
Should you buy it?
Hmmm, if you have a 360 controller already and nothing is wrong with it, then short answer; Nah!
If you don't have a 360 controller, then I would definitely recommend this one as the one to buy!
Nothing is wrong with my 360 controller that I still got hooked up to my PC from ancient times, but my friend has a Xbox One with One Controller to only play single player games. Finally I got both the 360 controller and Xbox One Controller plugged in my PC, tried them both for a few hours and here are my thoughts so far.
Now, this controller I can easily say looks and feels great in my hands. Yes it is lighter than the 360 controller, and yes the D-pad feels a lot better to use. Here's the thing, the right and left bumpers do feel different, feels like clicking a mouse button. BE VERY CAREFUL WITH HOW YOU PRESS THEM AS THEY WILL BREAK!!!!!!!! The triggers are a lot better to press this time around. The VERY good thing about it is now I can go over my friend's home and with 2x AA batteries, I simply hold down the Wi-Fi button on the controller and IT PICKS UP FOR HIS XBOX ONE!!!! Yay!
That's where the differences stop. This is the same Xbox 360 controller folks which is a very good thing. [Though it would be cool if I could use it to turn on my PC].
One more thing; for some of the games I play on the PC, the games will lean more on the 360 controller as the default controller when I want to use the Xbox One controller. Maybe it's because both controllers are plugged in at the same time. I hope I can fix that soon or my PC is trying to tell me something.
**UPDATE: I got it to work now however, I have been warned to be very careful on how I press the left and right bumpers as they are easy to break. Yikes!

Hi all
I have managed to resolve the issue for me on my computer.
With the controller plugged in go to your device manager.
at the bottom the is a Xbox Peripherals container.
On my PC the controller listed was listed as Xbox Controller
I right clicked on this and clicked update Driver Software, then browse for driver and then pick from a list.
My PC had 4 listed in the compatible hardware
Microsoft Xbox One Controller
Xbox Controller
Xbox Gaming Device Version 10.x
Xbox Gaming Device Version 6.2.x
I selected xbox one controller and this seems to have done the trick.
