Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the controller's exceptional overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. Users also frequently praise the device's comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality tactile feel. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the durability of the buttons and bumpers, as well as the early onset of stick drift. Despite these technical frustrations and the premium price point, many still consider it a top-tier gaming accessory.

    The controller feels so nice to play on especially with the grips on the controller and its clean design. I don’t have to worry about battery life as much because charging Is such a breeze and it’s lasts for a long while.

    Great solid controller. Has perfect weight comes with charging case that you can charge controller IN!!!! Over all worth every penny if you play Xbox or pc at all. I have used a lot of controllers in my life and this by far exceeds the rest. Also, has extra paddles for the back and extra buttons in the case. Buttons are metal not plastic so it makes a huge difference when playing and they remove effortless by magnets.

    Great controller, lots of customization available for mapping and trigger sensitivity. Has a built in rechargeable battery that seems to last forever. I can start gaming in the morning and 12 hours later it still says it’s at full. I also like that you can charge it in the case with either the usbc cable or the magnetic dock. Only time will tell how long the battery will last as it ages but so far it’s the best controller I have ever owned.

    Love this controller. This is one feels very good compared to the black series 2. I can use on my gaming PC an my series x. The only thing is it just don’t come with other accessories. But that’s why the price is just right.

    Just hold this controller once and you’ll immediately feel it’s worth the money, truly. Everything from the grips, to the weight distribution, to the tactile experience of the buttons, triggers, and paddles, all feel absolutely premium. Regular Xbox one controllers will literally feel like junk in your hands from now on...sorry. Of course their are numerous ways to customize it. The brilliant magnet design allows attachments like the joysticks to come off like a dream yet stay firmly attached during aggressive use. The ability to literally dial in the joystick resistance, with the included tool, is just wonderful. I have even removed a joystick and changed the related tension mid-game it’s so easy! The different heights and designs of the joysticks all have real purpose and are genuinely appreciated in various scenarios. So is the changeable distance on the triggers...game changer. Then there’s the software. I have had many controllers that were customize-able with paddles (Think PDP etc). No software is more functional, efficient or effective than Microsoft’s own proprietary accessories app. Changes can be made easily, by almost any age group, and make gaming that much more immersive. Some say that owning this controller won’t make you better but it may make gaming more fun. I think they’re wrong. I think it does both. You ABSOLUTELY DO get a performance boost from higher quality instruments. Otherwise LeBron James would wear slides and Yo-yo Ma would play a washtub bass. Just get this thing so I can stop mixing metaphors- it’s expensive but you’re worth it...and so is this wonderful controller! Happy Gaming! Stay safe - Be kind

    Great Product. Don’t have to continually buy a new controller because of the analogs. All pieces of controller can be switched out. Definitely worth the money

    Great controller if you have some extra money lying around to splurge. Personally, it was a bit much for the cost, and I find it better to just grab a strike pack for the paddles and use an original Xbox one controller instead of the new one (afaik they don’t make them for the new controller right now). TLDR: get it if money isn’t an issue and you want more than two paddles, otherwise buy strike pack

    Excellent controller. It’s replacing the standard controller and the horrible SCUF controller. My recommendation is to stick with OEM items.

    I used the Series 1 for many hours and loved it. This Series 2 is improved in every area. The grip feels slightly off at first, but after some use, it feels great and grippy. The rechargeable battery is great and it’s awesome that you can put the controller in its case to charge. The thumb stick options are better this time around as well as the paddles. Love that you can adjust tension of thumbsticks this time around.

    I didn’t think I noticed much of a difference at first until I forgot to charge this controller, using my old controller felt like using a fisher price toy. This is such nice quality, the charge lasts so long, and it’s heavy in a good way. Weighty.
