    Great controller. It is well worth the price. I did get a controller out of the box with a lazy button and Best Buy exchanged it right away. Very grateful for this purchase!

    The product was so good right out of the box it had a lot of battery in it and I haven’t needed to charge it with the wireless charger it comes with that pulgas into the case. That being said I would upgrade If you have the series 1!

    Best Xbox Controller for the serious gamer. I would give it 5/5 but the analog sticks are prone to get sticky after a while. I would definitely get Geek Squad on it.

    This controller is one of the best controllers for Xbox! I play a lot of COD and back paddles and ability to customize are very key for a better gaming experience! I do wish the price was a little lower.

    This controller gives you most of the pro features for a smaller price and you basically get what you pay for in that sense. Overall, my experience with this controller has been exactly what I expected although I am glad that the quality of the buttons feels a lot better than the previous version.
