I know he doesnt make the rules but bestbuy as s conpany shouldn’t let that happen where a warranty is a one time use and microsoft needs to rlly upgrade there tech because stick drift put the box charging 179 or copy PlayStation with the sticks when it works its the best controller when it doesnt its like a raging headache

    Great controller for Xbox One X, bought it for Warzone and added bonus it works with the Series X. If you game somewhat competitively at all, this is worth the upgrade.

    I can’t use a regular controller anymore. The weight difference and materials are great. Makes for easier combinations, button and action access.
