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.

    I had the 1st gen and unlike many, never had any problems at all. Played a lot of hours and eventually wore out the coating on a thumb stick. This is similarly nice and expensive feeling but has usb c for faster/easier charging and it also has Bluetooth. This is especially nice for use with a PC because you don’t need that adapter that older Xbox One Controllers needed to pair with a gaming computer. It will also work with the upcoming Xboxes for this fall so your purchase is future proof.
