What the hell is this. It looks so uncomfortable.

"What if we made a Valve Steam Controller, but worse? 🤔" -- Microsoft

Looks like a successor to https://www.8bitdo.com/lite2/ but with Xbox branding.

These make sense as are portable, meant to be squeezed in a bag.

I have an older handy 8bitdo controller. Forgot its name. It's fully featured with d-pad, 2 sticks, 2 shoulder buttons each side, even works with Nintendo Switch. I keep it with me in the bag with the USB C charger and cables. The added bulk is not noticeable. It's too small as the main controller for daily use but from time to time being able to join in when visiting friends is a nice option
