    This is the best controller for multiple devices, hands down. Works perfectly on my PC and my IPad. Build quality is outstanding.

    Love this controller. Feels so much sturdier than the original. The ability to adjust trigger pull distance is a game changer for me in FPS games.

    Definitely a fantastic controller whether you’re using it for your Xbox or Pc. Grips are great, its a good feel. Like that it you can adjust how firm the joysticks can be. Adjustable triggers as well obviously. Only negative is that maybe size of my hands but I accidentally hit the trigger switches that control how far it travels by accident sometimes. And the fact it doesn’t come with the case and extra accessories is unfortunate

    Had this controller less than a month and the left stick is drifting. Will be returning for another one since I got the warranty. Hopefully the new one will not have that issue or button sticking issues.

    Bought first release and got stuck drift horribly. But Microsoft sent me a new controller after some long phone calls and checking on updates. But my 2nd controller is working as intended.

    Best Xbox controller by far. Series 2 is an improvement over Series 1 with shorter paddles that are more comfortable for people with big hands. Built-in rechargeable battery is a nice bonus
