Good controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would like the A,X,Y,B to be quite a bit more responsive and not so nitpickey about how they are pressed. The overall feel and ability to customize how the controller plays are absolutely superb.

Why would you buy any thing else.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the best controller out there today. I’m using it with the infamous Xbox series x and it is great! The high price tag is a lot to swallow, but if they dropped the price to $125, I think that is the right target.

I Love It!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is great! The battery life on this controller is amazing!! Love the back paddles.

- Cons mentioned:Button quality
Great feel, poor execution
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller has an amazing feel to it. I really enjoy using this controller until I realized that the ABXY buttons need to be fully bottomed out to work. When playing a game like Rocket League you can find yourself needed to press a button twice to get it to work, but in a fast game like that it is already too late.

Very comfortable in the hands
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Much better hand feel than the standard controller. Easily customized with provided additional knobs. Still trying to get used to the paddles on back, as standard controllers do not include them.
I would recommend this to a friend Feels great in my hands
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a solid piece of hardware with good grip and functionality. Unfortunately you can't do macros in programming mode. The A button was a bit sticky at first but after a few weeks of wear it well broken in.

One of the best controllers
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is way better than the first version. The case that it comes with has a portable charger and a built-in battery in the controller that last for a very long time very convenient very good.
