    This is the Best Controller out there built in battery a great little charger stand. I love the feel of this it is a little heavy but not bad at all. Having the extra buttons under the controller is great. You can set up the controller any way you want the buttons to go.

    Buyer beware: Controller feels good in hand, worked well for 4 months. The internals began to give out and the button responsiveness went down to a point of no input. Further inquiry from others leads me to believe this is a common issue in this controller series. Before you buy be aware you may shortly be involved in the back forth of shipping this controller out for repairs.

    while the controller is an amazing product the durability of the product is lacking a bit, the bumper button for my controller went out so I was thankful that I had a total tech membership to help me replace the item whennit started to fail. it is a lot of money to spend for a controller but the added bonus of everything it offers over a standard controller is worth it. heres hoping the next version is better quality.

    This controller was great. The construction felt solid and of high quality. I wanted to keep it but it just didn’t feel the same as the dualsense which I was used too.
