    Amazing controller! Inconsistent Manufacturing.

    I understood why people love this control the instant I put it in my hand. It feels premium. After playing with it for two weeks, it began to feel natural; my hand was adapting to the new trigger buttons. Unfortunately, the right trigger began to give-way and the spring was making a squeaking sound. The standard face buttons also didn’t register every time I press them. I returned it. Thankfully it was within the return period. I now also understand the issues of this controller. The manufacturing for these controllers isn’t consistent. I purchased a new controller that arrived today and i hi opefully I can leave a better review in the coming weeks and months.

    Best Xbox controller I’ve played with. Without getting into the technical aspects of it, which you can read almost everywhere, know that this controller is very easy and comfortable to play with. The price is high but worth every penny. I definitely recommend it.

    I like the back triggers to help play better. You can change parts out and just keep them off. They also have grips and come with a nice hard carrying case. Used it so much I wore it out over a year and thank goodness I got the warranty bc you basically get a replacement at no cost. Good stuff.

    Solid controller. Tons of customization options. Several stick options, lengths and sizes, multiple profiles on the fly and the paddles on the back of the controller make this a great choice of "pro" controllers. This think is built like a tank.

    Definitely a great controller. Has a solid feel and build, interchangeable sticks, pads and programmable buttons. The only downside of the cost. But if it lasts for a year then it paid for itself.

    Great upgrade from the standard controller. If you play alot of video games it’s worth the price. Definitely purchase the extended warranty though if your paying for a premium controller. Controllers go through a lot of wear and tear so the warranty is a must.

    The trigger stops provide an advantage in game, and the interchangeable buttons help with comfort. And not to mention the paddles to assist with quicker reaction while in game.

    It’s a very overpriced controller That’s really awesome I had the original one and the grips came off after a year. The new version seems to be holding up well and the wireless charging is nice
