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.

    It’s ok I guess. I got it on sale otherwise I would never have purchased. Good if you need to map a lot of buttons.

    seems sturdy, grip seems better, it is expensive though and internal battery only will likely break later. Beware.

    I've had this controller for two years, I still haven't had a single issue with it. I love the ability to customize the buttons on the back to whatever you want. It made my apex plays even crispier. Thanks for the great tech and quality materials.
