    The textured grip, tension control, and 3rd gaming profile are such a huge help. Perfect accessory for my One X and will definitely use it with my Series X next year!

    Bought this for my 10 year old son. He is happy and enjoying gaming. I found the best price at Best Buy. Paid $140 for a $180 controller. Thank you.

    This is the best controller i've used to date. The back pedals are a game changer for shooters. Can't go back to a normal controller now.

    This controller was great for about 5-6 months. From then on, the left bumper, left joystick, and right trigger all started showing signs of ware at an increasing rate. Thankfully, I purchased the 2-year warranty :-P
