    I don’t know if it’s worth 180, but hands down the best controller I’ve used. It feels real good in your hands, and customizing the thumb sticks feels great. I use it on my pc and I had to buy the Xbox Bluetooth adapter

    If you want a controller that feels like something a pro gamer would use, this is it. Very comfortable, and has support for additional inputs and interchangeable joysticks and D-Pad. However, my LB button is already breaking within a year of use. It still responds, but I have to put additional effort into pressing it. Also, the clips/magnets on the back that hold the pedal buttons break easily. It’s great while it lasts, so hopefully Microsoft invests in sturdier materials. This is an expensive item for something that breaks down quickly.

    So I hesitated getting this for my son due to cost. I bit the bullet and bought to and I am so glad I did. He loves it. Once we got it home and realized all it could do it was definitely worth the cost. It is truly a huge upgrade from the standard controllers.

    Great response time. Best overall controller I've use. Only negative is the weakness of the handles to a strong handed person such as myself. I can pop the casing with a squeeze.

    After hours of gaming you still have amazing grip on the controller and I like how you the back paddles are able to switch or be left off to your playing style

    Great controller, I have every high end controller made for ps and Xbox and this is by far the best overall. The scuff’s wear out too fast(I play a lot). For the price it’s best controller for competitive gaming.
