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 summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    My daughter loves the wireless controller. Responsive controller. Price point at under $100 is a plus. Have accidentally dropped one of them and nothing broke.

    The highest quality control we I've ever purchased. Microsoft outdid their self with everything from the box it comes in. The case to protect it. And the magnetic charger and type c charge port. Feels unbreakable in your grasp.

    Normally these controllers work fine but as of late I've had issues with two I've purchased. Both were brand new but where can you get a controller even close to this and it not effect your gaming
