Didn't come in condition stated
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As I opened the item it looked great. And in good condition. But upon use and checking diagnostics through the xbox accessories app. Found that it hadn't been thoroughly check for problems. And had a right bumper button that was not functioning or reading on the system itself.

geek squad protection plan
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] dont purchase the protection plan.they updated the policy to where you have to send off the controller for “services” no matter the issue… no more easy replacements.

Better build? HA
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing broke within the first five months. I do not throw, slam or even drop my controllers. The right bumper stopped working first, then the left. The only reason I haven't used Best Buy protection plan yet is COVID. I would not recommend this controller to anyone.

I've literally had it since sept 18th n it is a month n a half later n its sticking once again. I take excellent care of it n never have sticky hands at all. Just another crappy product

Great then went bad
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller except for the fact that it already has mechanical issue with thumb stick drift. For the price it should be much more reliable. Can’t say I would recommend it (I didn’t buy the extra warranty figured it was a solid product and didn’t need to spend the extra money) .
