    Lights are nice, good long cord, I like that you can mute... My mic mute is broken, I needed this. Nice to not have to constantly recharge. Was doubtful of quality but I like the controllers, bought two. My husband also likes them.

    I bought this for use on my windows 10 computer and it was plug and play but to fully utilize the options of the controller I downloaded the software listed in the packaging. The colors are awesome and dimmable, plus you can make it white if you like. I really love this company and after having this for a while now, I am so glad I bought this one. It does what its suppose to, easy to use/setup and is aesthetically pleasing.

    Bought it for racing and certain arcade games for my pc. Xbox controllers are a breeze to set up on windows because of Microsoft. Product wise , the App is cool to customize your controller. Good quality. Aesthetically pleasing.

    Instantly works when you plug it into your PC. Using this for Steam required no configuration at all. Just works right out of the box!

    Not bad for price. Appreciate the long cord. Like the fact that I don’t have to keep going through batteries. Color lights up nicely. I did have it on the mode to continuously change through all the colors and then it just stayed on blue..unsure if it was supposed to keep changing? Sometimes it is not very responsive which can be frustrating, but for my son it’s okay.. I cannot stand that when I choose to turn the controller off while watching a movie when I want to turn it back on, It won’t turn back on. I have to disconnect the cord instead of just pressing the X button to turn back on...also when it’s on off mode (to prevent button clicking) the lights stays on, just FYI... Lastly, the headphone/mic that we recently purchased for my son do not work when plugged into the headset jack of the controller.

    If you're like me, not wanting to spend an insane amount of money on official Xbox One controllers, do not turn a blind eye toward this controller. It is well designed, sturdy and responsive. No delayed input lag when gaming with my Cybertron CLX Windows 10 Gaming Desktop. I'm not into the After Glow RGB lighting but kids may find it cool. Even though I paid for the 2 year insurance protection for my last controller, which is the same design as my current controller, I'm confident it would have lasted longer than 2 years had it not been for my heavy handed 16 year old cousin. I told him he had nothing to prove playing Resident Evil 2 Remake because zombie games are definitely not his thing as he must have really tensed up, jamming the A button, while playing. lol. He is not allowed to use my controller as I have gotten him a cheaper controller to use. lol. Other than that, this controller is definitely worth the price.

    I bought this Afterglow controller becasue I am tired of chaning out batteries. I love the lights and the see through controller case. Now I can see what is going on. Performance wise this can be compared to the Elite controllers and I will never go back to battery powered controllers again. This is a high quality product and I highly recommend it to anyone who plays Xbox.

    The Prismatic Controller was overall a good controller for the price. The Lighting doesn't get in the way of gameplay and brightness + color are adjustable in the Xbox App. Only con to the controller is its price which obviously shows. Triggers & Shoulder Buttons often get stuck after a month or two. I suggest not disconnecting the usb cable from the controller and instead disconnecting the cable from the console itself. Trust me once that cable gets loose you might as well throw away the controller; one of the disadvantages with wired. Overall depending on use you'll get at most 3-6 months shelf life. I would only buy this controller if you don't want to spend $60 on an official one, the difference is night and day. Don't purchase this just for the lighting gimmick, the wow factor runs out after the 3rd day.

    Works fine; No button issues aside from the fact that the ABXY buttons are really clicky, which can be a good or a weird thing, but every press is undeniably audible and mechanical sounding. The lighting is satisfactory.My biggest gripe is the way the controller feels in your hands; remember that you’re essentially buying plastic in order to see the lighting. If you want this controller to feel right in your hands, you’d better buy some oil or start sweating, because the grip feels VERY sticky otherwise. Coconut oil on my palms did the trick for me.

    My son really liked the transparent design and lights. He says it was working well for a few months and then it kept disconnecting. It stopped working after just 6 months...probably a problem with the wire. I guess it’s mostly for the aesthetics then???

    We tried this controllee because the lights looked cool but it actually works great. My 6 & 7 yr old boys do better with this controller than the wireless which they are always leaving somewhere or knocking it off couch. Wired is better for our house and this one is perfect!

    The colors are beautiful. The cord is long enough for you to sit on the couch and play without having to be close up on the TV. You can alternate between having the colors cycle thru or you can have one main color displayed.

    This is a wired remote and my son likes it. The remote lights up in different colors. It was cheaper than the wireless remotes and works great. The cord is long and can stretch nicely to his chair for gaming.

    This was a perfect buy for those long haul hours of gaming. No batteries to change in the middle of battle. I also like the custom lighting and sound control without added pieces.
