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.

    Great controller and i hate the controler that comes with the Xbox because it uses batteries. This feels more premium than the original too. I use the back pads for fps games but even if you dont use them its worth it.

    I going to go ahead & give this item a good review, this is my second one. First one was great & then out of no where the right bumper started double clicking, I dealt with it for a little, however at $180 for a controller, it better be flawless & I didn’t have it but for like 2 weeks & it’s malfunctioning. I looked up online & that’s where I found my issue & others. I returned it to Best Buy & as normal they exchanged it for me with no fuss. So far the new one is working correctly, seems the face buttons need to be pressed with conviction, however the entire controller works, the craftsmanship & functionality is great & this could be the greatest product ever, if Microsoft can just fix the software & hardware issues. It’s crazy how all over the place the quality control is. If this controller goes south, I will be looking to get a refund & just buy a good battery charger & battery setup for my plain jane Xbox controller & call it a day, that controller still works great

    The paddles are smaller than the series 1, so it took a minute to get use to, but they do feel better, and you can set the controller down without one of the paddles hitting your desk, which happens on the series 1. Also having a rechargeable battery is great.

    I was hoping to be able to set back buttons to keyboard functions keys. Unfortunately you can do that yet. Quality is good, and works great with my PC.

    This is a good controller. The customizable things you can do to your button mapping is insanely good for when I want to switch up my settings for the distant toes of competitive games I play.

    Love this controller. Very comfortable for multi hour long sessions. I use this on my desktop gaming rig after adding a small bluetooth receiver. Highly customizable, but after picking the stick options I wanted I haven't really switched them out. Nice that it is rechargeable too. Would buy this again.

    Great controller love the weight. Only thing I don’t like is that sometimes while gaming the sticks will start to unscrew mid gaming. Make sure you keep tight with the tool.
