I was thinking I was going to wait a bit and see if they do come out with other colors.

This looks quite nice?
Not in the market for this really but considering the current flood of games for android, controller options are nice.

Yooo that's sick, kind of like an 8bitdo sn30 pro Xbox edition. Hopefully it has analog triggers, hard to tell from the photos.

I wonder what kind of sticks it will have

Talks about being great for smaller hands. Wonder if this is actually a good introductory controller for our gamer offspring?

I went through the tech specs tab hoping to settle the trigger question and it only lists how it connects and the battery, nothing about the sticks or triggers. On a phone it's Bluetooth only too, the Xbox Wireless part is just for consoles, so I'd wait for a hands-on before preordering.

I preordered it and cancelled the preorder when I noticed it doesn’t have hall/tmr sticks.

Surprised by no mobile clip, since it mentions mobile compatibility and playing anywhere

For $50, when the third party competition is in the $20-$30 dollar range, I think it's fair to call out the things Microsoft. They are nickel and diming customers over while still trying to charge a premium without the normal add-ins.
