    The controller is cheap - feels like it is made from hollow plastic. The PS5 controller is 100 times better if you are looking for a controller to play PC games.

    Its nice that its a wireless charge but the controller lags out and thinks the controller is disconnected in the middle of playing which is kind of annoying.

    The premier “pro” Xbox controller, however they are continually plagued by bumper malfunctions. If had 3 over the past 4-5 years, however no other controller comes close to feel. I recommend getting the year warranty as I’ve needed to swap them almost yearly with fairly heavy use.

    Great controller, especially for its quality and hand feel. I love its customized button and the vibrate it performs for certain games like Need for Speed.

    Had a really bad drift. We ended up having to purchase another one and the new one from Gamestop has no issues.

    Today i bought my third one of the course of four years. Its a great controller but I’ll save you the time reading everything about it on Reddit … They break. Just from normal use, they break. God forbid it falls off a coffee table. They feel rugged but they aren’t. I had to replace the last one because the pairing button was pressed and just stayed pressed. So today I got a core controller a two year Geek Squad.

    This is the controller the system should come with. It’s fantastic, although I still find myself preferring the dual sense for its haptics.
