    Good quality controller with a great battery life. I haven't had any complaints about the hardware. If you are looking to get this for use with your PC, know you will need to download/update drivers using an additional Xbox app. While inconvenient, it shouldn't deter you from the great quality comfort this controller provides.

    After playing with it during the Halo Infinite Insider Flight, I'd highly recommend it! The buttons and reduced trigger time helps so much with FPS games specifically and it feels like a must if you're looking for a premium controller for PC and Xbox gaming. With so much customization on the controller and the app, it feels incredible. Can't wait for Halo Infinite and to try out the controller even more! I'll probably pick up Battlefield and Far Cry to use this controller more.

    After using the controller for a few months, I have to say it’s great! The customization options for the analog sticks is good. But this really shines for me using Steam input on my PC to map the back paddles for additional button presses and shortcuts for games. Haven’t had any quality control issues yet as others have said online.
