Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Excellent controller, but get the extended warranty. It’s know for breaking when it’s dropped, which is pretty easy for it to happen.

    I'd give it 0 stars if I could. The button that is used to sync it to the Xbox devices is broken so I can't sync it to any other devices now and it's stuck synced to my PC. I haven't even owned it for a year yet. It's a real shame I liked the paddles on the bottom of the controller but can't see spending another 170$ for another one.

    The triggers are super cheap feeling they shift to the side when you press them and make that cheap plastic squeaking noise. The regular xbox controller feels better in hand than this one and its almost 2/3 of the price cheaper.
