Fake Xbox one controller on eBay!

Hi I have seen some brand new controller and the seller as seid  "Official Xbox One Wireless Controller Black Brand New Christmas Gifts" but the controller does not have the official X too turn on the controller instead it just has metal circle so what i want to know is do you think they are original? He has 100% feedback but I am not sure they are 100% Official.  Can some from Microsoft help or make a post on their website about this.

I need advice.......

Hi

Can you provide a link to them and we can possibly check it out and confirm. I would hate for some poor kid opening a shiny new controller on Xmas morning just to find out it doesn't work.

2nd link appears to be finished. Your first link regarding the 'metal circle with no x'...if no 'x' it's not legitimate. Perhaps confirm with the seller? can a better picture be provided if the home button is hidden from the flash.

Also to note that the controller port (bottom input of the controller) appears to be of the first generation, with no headphone jack. That's an old controller that's been sitting around for the past several years to be 'unused'; something for you to consider, should that matter to you.

Good luck

simple don't buy it looks like a cheap knock off for series 1 of the xbox one controller. Try purchasing from trusted retailers

i would have to say this isn't a legitimate controller as it is missing both the label on and the X on the Xbox home button. So while it does seem to be a 1:1 with the normal Xbox one controllers i would just recommend getting them from a store or from the microsoft website.

Everything looks legit except the missing logo. It could be legit and they just changed that part out but your best bet is to always buy from official retailers.

i've seen those before too, they don't work well at all from what i understand, i can't believe people are making crappy counterfeit controllers, i got one of those on wish, it was supposed to be compatible with xbox and playstation, and one day, out of the blue it started doing things by itself, it went into the xbox marketplace and started trying to buy things, so i had to get rid of it lol.

its possible that its part customised but it should say that in the details/description. i would say just from the uncertainty go somewhere else. there are lots of legit sellers. take a look on amazon for some good deals.

I have seen a lot of these replicas being sold online lately. I do not think you should buy a controller that does not have the Microsoft Xbox branding on it. Some people buy these knockoffs and then blame Microsoft when they break.
