    Extra mappable buttons are always a plus but they get worn down easily. Thumb sticks always felt a little too loose for my liking even with adjustments. Replaced with plan roughly every 9 months to a year. Thankfully I bought the plan.

    You’re lucky to get 6 months of use from these. For $180 Microsoft really can’t seem to produce a solid product. I’ve been through 6+ controllers in the past few years, but thanks to Best Buy’s protection plans I’ve saved myself from buying new every time one breaks.
