    The customization this controller allows will take your gaming to the next level. The build quality makes it feel like it should cost much more than it does and I am still finding new ways to make it my own after several months. Don’t miss out!

    So much better than series 1. Little disappointed that there’s not two extra long joysticks as I use those on the series one. Overall feel is greatly improved grips are great the battery life is phenomenal and be able to charge it right in the case is even better.

    This is the best controller I have ever used. I already had one before purchasing this one, this one is a gift for my nephew. The only thing that I can say is that the price might not be in everyone’s price range but if you can afford it I would highly recommend it.

    Disappointed, had to return the first one as buttons came broken, and reordered a second, it worked, and I loved it, so I give it 3 stars, rapid hairtriggers, paddles are good addition.
