    Great performance but wears out quickly. This is our second controller like this and it only lasts about a year. However, it performs much better than the standard controller. I would recommend this product but I would also recommend purchasing the extended warranty with it.

    Controller is amazing and would be super perfect but came defective twice. Had to exchange the first and second finally got a good one the third time. Had to talk with Microsoft got tired of paying BB 40$ for insurance when it was clearly a Microsoft error. My controllers had joystick drift.

    Both left and right buttons wear out WAY too fast. Absolute must to get the 2 year warranty. Other than that, great controller.

    Much better than the base controller. This one is much more sturdy and you don't have to worry as much about the analog drift which has made me replace 4 regular controllers in the past 2 years.

    Fits my punisher pc setup perfect. Love the grips for my palms and I’m glad it doesn’t have triggers on the back. You can add them if you choose the thumb sticks are nice. I don’t notice sweaty hands using this either

    A must for anyone serious about gaming on a controller. Your grip switches can be programmed to any button which you are able to switch and program for different games in your collection. Works on PC and the new Series X. I’m glad I made this purchase. Definitely a power move when you bust this out on your friends.
