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.

    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.

    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.

    Being an avid XBOX fan, this controller is a great addition. It is easy to customize with accessories app or change the back triggers. I LOVE the wireless charging.

    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

    We didn’t have a problem with the product at all. It seemed to work as advertised. The problem that we did have was that when we try to get a price match with a local box store, they refused to do it. As a result, we returned the controller and saved a considerable amount of money by buying it somewhere else.

    I’ve had 4 of these, always wanted to believe they’d be great. However all them opened up with severe stick drift. For the price, this is ridiculous. If it wasn’t for that, this would’ve have been an excellent controller.

    It would be 5 stars but light taps to the Y button wouldn’t register 50% of the time, and my store told me to talk to MS about the problem.
