    Controller is excellent for gamers. Love how it can be modified and fitted to your individual game play needs. Carry case and accessories are all very well bit and in my opinion worth the money.

    The paddles take a bit to get used to, and I re-mapped them, but when you do they're awesome. I barely have to worry about keeping the remote charged because it lasts so long.

    Awesome gift to give at an affordable cost, the upgrades in the next level up can still be purchased but separately still being microsoft. The handling is a great combination of grip and sleekness, even looks great.

    Solid materials but the contriller seems to get stick drift extreme fast. It also randonly loses connection a lot. Its definitely not worth full price mayne not even a sale. Consider other controllers first.

    Good quality. Feels nice in your hands. I like being able to adjust the joystick sensitivity. My one complaint is it did not come with the back paddles and adjustable joysticks, but third party options were relatively cheap, but with the high cost of the controller I feel like it should come with.
