Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great controller. It's a little bit bigger and feels more sturdy. Took a min to get used to the tiny size difference. So far no issues. I love the triggers ypu can add as well as the different settings you can set . I also love that we can connect to phones as well.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the controller. Had the first gen but upgraded to this for the new series x. Works great. Much better quality than previous gen.
I would recommend this to a friendY button only registers on perfectly centered push
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Playing FPS game and the Y button won't register the push to change weapons while in firefights unless i very carefully and firmly press the center. I'm hoping this is just a bad/defective unit, but only option is to return without a replacement since Best Buy has no stock available. Otherwise the controller feels wonderful and plays great, but not registering every button push on a nearly $200 controller is not acceptable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from MicrosoftOutreachTeam
