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 was looking for a gaming controller for when I choose to play games that a keyboard and mouse would be a difficult thing to use on certain games. Saw this and I really like the buttons on the back and after using it after a while I don't even touch the button on the front cause the back ones feel more natural for me and very responsive. Definitely a good buy.

    the controller it self is amazing with the ability of swapping out the sticks is amazing but i really wished it was bluetooth to IOS apple unfortunately it’s not , which sucks because there’s many games out there that are supporting controllers, but this didn’t made the cut which is fine but would be an amazing game breaking moment, in all its a awesome controller i haven’t got any problems just yet, & the game pass bonus is quite amazing it self, in all, awesome controller would be amazing with the bluetooth connections as it can be taken to huge levels, in all amazing -B.

    I was first skeptical about paying this much for a controller, but it has absolutely been worth it. I will never go back to a regular controller. Have the ability to map additional buttons on the paddles have been a game-changer (literally)! I love the weight of the controller and it feels amazing in your hands.

    So far the controller performs very well. It has a good feel to it while playing. It is replacing a Series 1 Elite controller. So far I do like it better.

    Not quite the revolution in controller design you're hoping for. But you can assign Keyboard keys to the buttons too, for those games that allow M+K and Controller play at the same time. I don't regret my purchase yet. Being able to reload or use a melee with the back buttons, in certain games is pretty awesome.
