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.

    Initial purchase had controller drift right out of the box. Best buy exchanged it, and the new controller works well. I do find it insulting that a controller at this price point does not come with paddles. Seems very “nickel and dime”

    Comfortable and good ergonomics. Easy set up. Battery duration could be better. Good thing I got it on sale otherwise I would return it and it wouldn't be worth the regular price.
