    I love how the controller feels but that's about it. Right out of the box the ABXY buttons will randomly double-input.

    First one I picked up was missing all of the accessories and was filthy. Returned it and grabbed a different one. Second one was in near perfect condition. Be careful with the open box products.

    The paddles can be a bit stiff, but if you’re trying to take your FPS play to the next level or just looking for a better built controller, this one fits the bill. The top two paddles can be especially stiff. The rest of the controller and it’s features are very nice and you can edit the settings and presets of the controller very quickly while in-game.
