Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options, along with its comfortable feel and good weight. However, a significant concern among users is the prevalence of stick drift and issues with button quality, particularly with the bumpers and A button. The price is also a point of hesitation for some.

    Feels great, looks great. Easily the worst controller I've ever used. If it was $20 I would be irritated, but $200? Buttons don't work, stick drift, and rubber grips WILL peel off over time. It really is shocking they are still selling this.

    I play a lot of Apex Legends and the paddles that this controller comes with are fantastic. I have two of the three settings saved through the xbox app for Apex, Battlefield, and another that I’ll find a use for eventually. The battery lasts a long time on a single charge but it also takes a very long time to charge too. So keep that in mind. It is expensive, but I think it’s worth it so far.

    I have 2 of these and like them better than the standard xbox controller. Like the rubber grip and the ability to add the flipper buttons. Allows for some customization and just feels good in your hands.

    Bad stick drift

    stick drift after a couple of months. build quality isn't what I expected for how much you spend on a controller. Stick drift is horrible after a couple months use. If you have the money to dish out for the controller than go ahead and buy it. It works great when it is working but once stick drift becomes a issue its over because things like stick drift matter alot in fps games and pretty much any game where there is a aiming mechanic involved. Microsoft definitely needs to focus on this issue more on the next model. Thus for now I only give it 2 stars due to the price along with the lack of build quality due to the stick drift issue.
