They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    If you are a competitive gamer, this controller will not last for a year. Bumpers fail, drift, and sometimes the paddles don’t work. Causal gamers who barely play will love this controller.

    Let’s be fair, the features are phenomenal, everything with it is an upgrade.....ACCEPT for the thumb sticks.... My thumb sticks had input problems after a few months. I’m talking if I moved the stick all the way over, it responded with the SLIGHTEST movement in that direction. A controller at this price should not accumulate wear and tear so easily. MY SERIES 1 controller STILL WORKS, so my guess is it had something to do with the incorporation of TENSION adjustment. Goes to show you why there’s a supply problem, everyone is returning them and getting a second one and then returning it and getting a 3rd and so on. If you got the money, buy 2 if you insist on having the extra features, or find a different option that will last a year (typically I find controllers last a year or so with heavy play) I’m gunna try the FUSION pro and I’ll post a review there after a while.

    I enjoyed the controller when it worked. But the joy went away when the controller quickly degraded into a hot mess when a nasty dead zone and sticking issue showed up on the left thumb stick. Made games literally unplayable as you couldn’t reliably do the basic necessity of controlling your character/aim. The best part of this was that it happened just outside of the 90 day manufacturer warranty and would cost $100 to send away to Microsoft be repaired or replaced with a refurb. I expected longevity from a $180 controller, similar to my original elite controller I’m still using after buying close to launch. Save your money, or buy an extended warranty and be prepared to send the controller away.
