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.

    Grandson loves it! It charges itself, has its own case, stores neatly away and stay safe. Totally worth it.

    I bought this to replace my Razer Wolverine Ultimate Controller. I had no issues with the Razer controller, but it just wasn't for me. I am amazed with the amount of fine-tuning you can do with this controller. Above and beyond anything the Razer controller could do. The analogue tensioner is a very nice addition. It is probably my favorite feature along with the controller charge dock. If you are looking for a high-end controller, look no further.

    Controller is almost perfect, but the A and Y are very unresponsive, and it's not that some units are defective, but a design flaw. Otherwise excellent controller.

    Best buy is fine but I have to buy the same controller every year or so because microsoft doesnt know how to make buttons I guess since they are ALWAYS failing. I have had over 600$ in controllers since I bought my xbox back in 2020/

    If i could give this thing 0 stars I would. Controller makes a great first impression, feels nice in your hands, lots of nice features but after the first 2 weeks it’s all down hill. Durability is a definite issue with this, whether it be the double click, stick drift out the box, hand grips starting to come off, unresponsive buttons, you name it. Returned this thing immediately, worst controller i’ve ever owned.
