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.

Horrible quality
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This should be the perfect controller. Unfortunately, Microsoft really dropped the ball with overall quality on this generation. I’ve had to replace the controller under warranty twice already, and the latest replacement that I received will also be going back. Stick drift, sticky buttons, unresponsive buttons, shell separating, you name it. Cannot recommend this at all.

Great Controller
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In my opinion, it is the best controller out in the market. I’ve had both the dual shock and a custom scuf controller and I still love the series 2 controller. Their magnetic paddles and removable parts are great designs.

Right Bumper woes.....again!!!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.on my 3rd...only reason i keep getting because i keep getting geek squad warranty. RB keeps going out... i'm currently on my 3rd controller and the RB (right bumper) button is intermittent again.. if i gotta throw to my running back out the back field it's hit or miss if the ball goes out... or if i have to bring up the pass options in 2K to pass in to my Center..hit or miss...really sucks, because outside of that it's a great controller.
