Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    This thing it’s not worth it unless you are rich and have enough money to buy one each two or three months that’s how long it usually lasts until it stops functioning properly,it’s the best controller when it works well but it just breaks too fast I hope the build quality gets better

    Came on time which was great, controller overall is good I was just unlucky and got a defective one. Highly recommend that you get the warranty if you can’t get that, make sure to register the controller on Microsoft’s website so that if you have issues you can send it in for repairs.

    Loved the controller initially but with in a few days of moderate use playing CoD; the right thumb stick would drift to the left during game play and the B button would randomly not respond to inputs

    I’ve had this controller for only one month and it has already broken. One of the paddle buttons now makes a loud click and the up on the d- pad also makes a louder then normal click sound.. but other then that it’s a really good controller
