Better than v1
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller has a premium feel to it. Nice weight and the adjust ability is great to have. The only gripe I have is the paddles.. the scuff ones on the v1 were a little better.

Higher Cost=Poorer Quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I never do reviews, but I guess I’m starting. I love these controllers. Works perfectly on Xbox or PC + paddles. But. As the price gets higher the quality becomes more of an issue. 3rd controller that has fallen apart, this one did last a good year and a half which I’m happy about but this controller specifically the grip around it absolutely wears out before the first year of use. 2 of the controllers I’ve had plastic breaks inside the controller without raging being involved (hasn’t effected use). The response mechanism for the triggers is probably the worst, maybe works for a week and wears its self out unless you’re super soft on the triggers all the time. It’s just no longer worth the cost when it seems it’s only designed to last until the warranty runs out. I don’t care to buy new controllers obviously but “premium” controllers should be able to withstand heavy use and not naturally fall apart within a year. IMO.

Great controller for a bit too much
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty nice but too expensive I like the controller, I tried it, its my brother's controller but I wouldn't buy it Its way to expensive, I'll wait for a sale
I would recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Button quality, Stick drift
Great controller when it actually works
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is awesome when it actually works. I’m already on my 3rd due to various issues though. It seems almost impossible to find one which isn’t defective out of the box. Issues I’ve seen are buttons sticking on the face and shoulder, double inputting for face buttons, stick drift, and now on my newest one, it will randomly power off on its own. I’d say unless you are a diehard elite controller fan, maybe look at a third party offering for a premium controller

Must have for serious gamers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The shortened travel for the triggers is everything in a FPS game. The paddles are great when racing. The batteries last forever. The build is amazing. I can’t say enough good things about this.
