    Really nice to use, even without the additional back paddles. Only real flaw is there isn't a dedicated capture button. Would recommend if you can get it $30+ off.

    We got this controller for our son who is an avid Xbox player and gamer and he loves it. It has many functions beyond the standard controller, it's heavy duty and solid and it's working exactly as he hoped it would. We've only had the controller for about 2 weeks but we're hoping it lasts for a long time.

    Amazing upgrade from the original Xbox controller. I love it! The paddles keep my thumbs on the sticks where they belong! The ability to adjust the trigger is amazing! Love the fact I can plug it into my PC and game with it on there too!

    Great controller, but this is my 2nd one in just over a year. The buttons seem to get stick drift after a while and this is only worth it with the protection plan since it would be fully covered if anything were wrong with it.

    Theres really wrong with this controller but i would say still get that 2 years protection plan from best buy since it does drift over time. I havent gotten that issue yet but it could drift so get that 2 years.

    Using this on my PC to play Warzone. I haven't purchased any back triggers, but the regular trigger lock, the feel of the controller, and the custom settings in the PC software make it already worth it.

    Had it for a few months now and works great as the day I purchased it. No drifting and the rubbers by the palm is still in great shape. The controller is being used a lot between to players and no button getting stuck. Also, I did but the two-year warranty with it in case it fails on us down the line.
