Beware
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Left stick is messed up on all of these. When you push down and try to move forward it’s difficult. Don’t get this controller.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller was faulty. It did not work properly at all and had to be returned. Of course, item was then and is still out-of-stock so we are still without a controller. Just out here on the streets walking around with a Best Buy gift card

No, I would not recommend this to a friendFeels very cheap
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is definitely worse than the series one controller. The front just feels very cheap and the home button is clickable and doesn’t feel as good as the old controller. Also when playing on pc, you can’t connect it wired and will experience in game lag.

Amazing hardware crippled by software
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What's the point of having 4 extra buttons if you can only map them to existing buttons? Microsoft should include a license for real button mapping software with this $180 controller. The discontinued steam controller at least has functional software.
