The price is also a point of hesitation for some.

Buy a cheaper controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Work good for about 6 months and they typically get stick drift or buttons internally end up sticking even with consistent care. The price does not align with the actual value.

Great Xbox accessory
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took me years to finally buy this controller. I’m happy with it. I’d say this is worth it if you play FPS games (WZ, COD, etc.). Using the paddles gives you the ability to do things like reload or armor up or mark locations - without moving your thumbs from the buttons or joystick. The weight of the controller is legit too. It feels like good build quality. One of the things that this got rid of for like 2 weeks was controller drift. After a couple weeks, it came back but was less intense. All in all I’d say if you are thinking about this and play FPS games, do it!
