    Perfect for players looking to take their game to the next level. Supposedly these are subject to stick drift more than any other controller, but so far I’ve had no problems.

    Better than the first iteration in many ways but still has its issues. Feels great in hand and the rechargeable battery is a must have past due added touch that the controller badly needed! I had immediate issues with my right bumper though the bumper buttons break very easily and are poorly made. I was really surprised how fast the bumpers gave out and I feel like it will happen again soon
