    I really like the controller, the case and the charger. Only issue i have it sometimes the "A" key double presses or doesnt register. Other than that its the best controller ive had.

    The price, the easiness to operate this controller, customize your buttons, the color. This is the cheap version beacuse it does not come with the paddles, nor.does it comw with the case ,however the quality of the controller is excellent.

    I've used many controllers over the years. This is the best one I've used. Used with a gaming PC, easy to set up, easy to use. Love the feel. Side note: I've larger hands than most, has great grip and feel in my hands so might be a bit clunky for some.

    Broke a previous one after rage quitting, so I decided to upgrade. I like how everything is adjustable, I feel like it has improved my gaming experience big time. I never want to go back to the original controller.

    Great controller! A little pricey but if you’re willing to splurge it’s a lot better than the normal controller.

    Battery lasts days, everything is as promised and better. Buttons feel great, grip is amazing doesn’t feel and the controller doesn’t feel broken or cheap. You’ll know you’re holding an amazing piece of technology. Only problem is that I have had it for half a year and the bumpers are already broken, would be a huge issue but I purchased the warranty. Everyone else beware of your controller breaking easily.

    Awesome controller for FPS games and I am sure a plethora of other games. It is very customizable and I can't go back to playing games without back paddles. I gave it a 4 out of 5 because the right thumbstick had stick drift from day 1 but I knew to expect this and bought the protection plan. It was actually covered by the manufacturer warranty and already got a new one.

    Great controller! The extra paddles underneath, the ability to shorten the triggers pull is a game changer, and most of all being able to set and button to a different one is a real game changer. Only reason its not 5 stars is the reliability. This is my 3rd one, since the LB and RB buttons can break easily. Thats why i gave it a 4 star
