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.

    Feels good in the hand. Back buttons are located in a great spot. The extra stick options are a great combo of options. The battery life is great. The whole package is perfect.

    Fully customizable within windows set dead zones color for the xbox button. Configure trigger as a one touch so it acts like a mouse click as soon as they are pressed or make them better for a throttle.

    Great and sturdy, a few things that would need improvements would be a removable joy stick because they seem to loosen pretty bad and the tightening sometimes its either too tight or too loose

    For an OEM controller, its great. Durability and longevity really depends on your use. Make sure to get the 2 year extended warranty from Microsoft only. You can buy paddles for cheaper third party

    Go to gaming remote for my kids that can be purchased at Best Buy. Be Customizable is great for preferences. BUT I have had to replace this controller twice due to broken/none responsive buttons/controllers each time within a year of purchase.

    Definitely better than the series 1 but suffers from the stick drift issue if you have your controller tilted the weight on the metal joysticks will drift your controller but it has a 1 year factory warranty will probably get a scuf next time

    It's super comfortable to hold, with a great ergonomic design that allows for extended gaming sessions without any discomfort. The buttons are responsive and perfectly placed, providing precise control over your games. The thumbsticks give just the right amount of resistance, offering smooth and accurate movement. And let's not forget about the rumble feature that adds an extra layer of immersion to your gaming experience. Whether you're playing action-packed shooters or engaging in fast-paced sports games, the Xbox controller delivers unmatched performance. It's a must-have accessory for any serious gamer!
