    Extra mappable buttons are always a plus but they get worn down easily. Thumb sticks always felt a little too loose for my liking even with adjustments. Replaced with plan roughly every 9 months to a year. Thankfully I bought the plan.

    It is currently June 2024 and I purchased the controller in October of 2023. Very early on I noticed stick drift on one of the analog sticks. Now the RB button has to be pushed extremely hard to register, and even then it sometimes doesn't work. I take very good care of my things and the controller has never been dropped or damaged in any way. I play anywhere from 5-10 hours a week.

    Purchased this controller and had to return it due to the left trigger not working right out of the box. This was pretty inconvenient because I live pretty far from Best Buy. Once I exchanged this controller, the new one has been flawless.
