    Works great. No screenshot button either which I’m thankful for. As a total tech member it’s definitely worth the price

    My husband is hard on controllers. This controller lasts for a long time! It’s the 2nd one we have bought but the first one lasted 3 years and a normal controller that comes with the Xbox lasts him about 6-8 months. He loves the buttons and being able to personalize it to what he wants

    Rated 5 stars even though personally I didn’t like it. Great quality product, I really liked how you could adjust the triggers to 3 different setting. I bought because I thought I’d like the extra 4 programmable buttons on the back of the controller (that way you don’t have to take your thumbs off the joysticks to use certain buttons. For me it was just too much to get used to, playing Xbox for 15 years without extra buttons, then trying to get used to them was tricky for me.

    Got this controller on a sale and have not been disappointed. However be wary that these and most other controllers do get the joystick drift at some point.

    If you want to take your game to the next level, this controller is an absolute must! The configurable buttons, paddles, triggers, and sticks allow you to take over the competition on any game you play. The battery lasts for days of play and it doesn’t lose sync with your console.

    Huge improvement from the first series. Worth just under $100. Should probably be a but cheaper since no paddles are included.
