    Premium controller for Xbox. This controller has four remappable back buttons. The build quality is metal and durable plastic. Altogether no expenses spared, grab it on a sale to make it worth your money. If you want it for PC, grab the dongle for the wireless experience.

    RB button stops registering every once in a while. I use it for light gaming and have not dropped. I had an abused Razer wolverine for years and it never stopped working. The small cover for the trigger adjustment fell off as well, i only adjusted it one time when i first got it.

    This is a very well constructed and quality controller that feels really great to use. My issues with it stem from its pc compatibility. Firstly I would not use this controller via bluetooth, as there is intermittent latency, use a dongle or a cable to connect. Secondly, and my biggest disappointment, is that there does not appear to be any first party support for keyboard mapping. I found plenty of tutorials on how to use it. But when you try and use the software to map, the options are not there. I ended up using a third party software to accomplish this

    When they work, best controller for the Xbox. They have a VERY high failure rate and only a 3 month factory warranty, so the geek squad protection plan is a must and well worth the 2 years of coverage. I Own 3 of these controllers by the way. If they didn't have such a high failure rate I would give them 5 stars all day.
