Problem controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For this particular controller I bought, it was working well until one day it began to short out and would not stay connected to my Xbox, and it was definitely not because of batteries as I switched those out numerous times. I usually have no problems with controllers from Best Buy, and I couldn’t return it as it was a week past the return date.

Overrated controller...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only thing good about this is that it supports Bluetooth. Other than that, the other XBox One controller's (Arctic White) are better.
