    Works great! It was a little tough to get used to, but it didn’t take long and I was back to playing better than before. The buttons seem a bit more delicate as I’ve already stated having some issues with their quality.

    The metal thumb pad stays cool during play and the paddles on the back of the controller come in so much handy while playing!

    This is what true greatness feels like. It’s even hard to go back to the series x normal controller after explaining this.

    It's a fantastic upgrade and is worth every penny. I was in the crowd of those who would never pay extra for a controller until the one that came with my Xbox got the dreaded joy-con drift. So I picked this up for myself, and trust me, I'll never use a different controller for Xbox or PC.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Most premium feeling controller on the market but has hard time staying in tact if you’re a heavy gamer. I’d say a protection plan on this controller is almost necessary for anyone who plays more than a couple times a week.
