    Would rate it 5 stars if I didn’t have a issue with the first one I bought. After researching there’s problems the joy sticks. Love the controller and the paddle options in the back. Definitely a must if your a COD player like myself.

    This controller is great for the xbox. Has multiple button settings which comes in handy if you want to change what each button does but the game doesnt allow it.

    Best controller I’ve ever use, it is expensive but it really is worth the price, got an extended warranty because I’ve heard they are prone to have factory defects over time, would recommend other people to buy the warranty too, bought it 7 months ago and it hasn’t given me any problem.

    Wow, switched from scuf controllers and just wow. Paddles took some getting used to tho. Very well done all around. Recommend protection plan tho. I had LB(left bumper) get sticky so just went to best buy n swapped. Very happy. Only thing scuf has better would be customizations.

    It a good upgrade from the series 1. I just wish the rubber grip backing. Other then that it’s a great controller for shooters and racing games.

    I was actually really looking forward to this controller and was fairly disappointed. One of the analog sticks became drifty within a week and the back paddles are very small. Overall the controller looks great and has many options for variability.

    I bought this used and ended up returning it because the left joint stick was locking up and the LB & RB button weren’t not as responsive as it should be.

    Good controller for FPS games. Not that much use for anything else. Not really worth the hype for the price but does add some nice features like profiles and the RGBW home button.

    Near flawless control but had a small stick drift that persists today. Button layout is hard to get used to but is a somewhat quick learning curve if you’re going one button at a time

    The customizable back paddles are clicky, Confortable, and good quality, the only downside is battery, it can't be changed once the lifespan ends.

    Love it. Much better than the first version. 3 levels of trigger resistance. Internal battery. The paddles are a little shorter so it's not as easy to tap accidentally (it still happens from time to time). The construction and materials of the controller are pretty good.
