    I love the way it looks but the batteries die very quickly. I'm not even much of a gamer.

      Hey Tori,

      We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox wireless controller for the most part. If you're a frequent gamer who tends to blow through batteries, we suggest investing in a rechargeable battery pack. We recommend the Xbox One Play & Charge Kit, which offers up to 30 hours of battery life on a single charge and can be fully recharged in under four hours. For more information, go here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/microsoft-xbox-one-play-charge-kit-black/9008298.p?skuId=9008298

      Hope that helps,

    All Xbox controllers are made cheap so you have to replace them. Always get the warranty.

    Stick drift out of the box. This is my second xbox controller with this problem and as a pc gamer it made me switch to ps4 controllers. It was a rough transition, especially after 15 years on Xbox platform, but im never going back.

    These prices on the controllers are getting a bit pricey. Should be cheaper. Otherwise a great product.

    Nothing fancy just a control. We go through too many so maybe it needs to be better quality made.

    This controller (which they don't make anymore) was just ok. I liked the textured grip but overall, it was just a standard controller. It started malfunctioning when I had my headset plugged in so I had to return it.

    Expensive and broken in less than 2 weeks I honestly am not much of an online buyer but I needed a new controller badly so I ordered this one and it worked great at first but for some reason the left bumper was not properly working and I had to press it multiple times for it to finally work I thought it was just a simple problem that would rarely happen but after owning it for a while the controller is a defective one and it looks new works well except the left bumper I was disappointed when I realized I purchased a defective product and wanted to return it but sadly the return window expired and I was forced to stay with a brand new controller with a defective left bumper will never purchase another controller from here my first one turned out defective
