    Its such a nicely made controller I no longer use the regular ones. It does have a very small amount of stick drift over time but nothing like the old controllers. Highly recommend.

    Amazing controller for your xbox or computer. Comes with a charging stand or you can directly plug into the controller. Paddles are removable and all the buttons can be remapped using the xbox or computer software.

    Great controller to have, comes in handy. However it tends to wear fairly easily. The buttons/connections wear out and can’t be used after some time, forcing you to use the built in paddles. Then the paddles wear out and you can’t use them. If you buy this controller I HIGHLY recommend getting the protection plan for it.

    Was kind of worried that I would get one with issues but I didn't. Every button works. No drift. But, you better tack on the 50 bucks for the warranty.
