I agree, Logitech all the way. I've got 8 of them and will never turn back.

hi, im looking for wireless pad for the xbox original, im surprised cause i find in several internet shops many of this pads, but im confused i dont know if they are good or not.

i want to ear experiencies or opinions with those kinds of pads for the xbox, the reason is that im going to buy it throught internet, and i will be complicated a devolution if i doesnt like the products

a few examples
Logitech Cordless Precision Controller xbox
TGC ® Xbox Wireless Controller with Active Grip Coating
MY-Link 2.4G Wireless controller xbox

Be careful when purchasing a Logitech xbox controller online. Reason being is that Logitech's first attempt at an xbox wireless stick went horribly wrong. It was pretty much like the one everyone swears by now but was longer from left to right. My first wireless controller was one of Logitech's first and I hated it.

So, in short, pay special attention to the picture of the product before you buy and if the controller looks funny skip it and look for the smaller one Logitech made.

After

At first glance, they look the same.

You really dont have many other options. Lots of places are phasing out on second hand XBOX gear.

The first run Logitechs also have a bit more gloss finish to them. I still never hard a problem with them and the parts that come out farther are also more slender and even more comfortable.

What do you feel went so wrong?

The larger of the 2 Logitech controllers always gave me weird hand cramps and it just all around felt awkward in my hand, which is why I posted the warning above. I feel that that version controller may not be as desired as the smaller one, which is also why I think Logitech revamped it.  I haven't personally tried the remodeled one, but from the looks of it, it was an improvement.
