    This controller works well for frequent and competitive gamers. It allows for multiple settings and different button/stick layouts. Worth the price? Yes.

    Controller is fantastic! After two years it has worked really well. Little stick drift in the right stick, but nothing that renders it unusable.

    Amazing controller! The customization is insane. Compatible with Xbox Series X/S & PC. It's my daily driver. I love it. My only issue was that after a couple of years the shoulder buttons are now really sensitive and will register multiple clicks with one push. Fortunately I have the RB LB buttons mapped to the back buttons, so its not a big deal. If this happens to you call MS immediately so they can replace it while still under warranty.

    The first one I bought was defective but only because the lowest input setting on the back of the controller wasn't working. I brought it back for a replacement and it works great. Worth the money for a great gaming controller.
