    Way too expensive, but a great controller. I believe it should cost less, not really worth the price.

    This controller feel great in the hand qnd is easy to use. This completely changes everything when you play competitive games and helps even thinga up a bit in the "cross platform" world. Between never having to pull my fingers from the thumbsticks and the hair triggers you shave enough ms off your actions to give you a greater chance against the PC guys... I dont miss the mouse and keyboard anymore now.

    Great controller but horrlble Best Buy Experiance

    Had to purchase this controller twice and here is why. I bought the “Open Box” the is supposedly checked by the Geek Squad. The first controller the right shoulder button was dead. I mean i can check this using the Xbox diagnostics.. so clearly no one at the Geek Squad checked this unit. The next open box in “excellent condition “ was missing the charging cable and not in the retail box. The Best Buy refurb is a joke..avoid it and shop Amazon… they actually check their devices.

    Love the controller, just not sure white is the best color for me. But for the cost and the customizability it's well worth the money. Warning this is a core controller, doesn't come with the charging dock or attachments. So make sure you have those before buying a core controller.
