Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    I like the controller overall, but for the price I would pass. Everything about this controller is great except for one of the main functions. It drifts! Series 1 the quality in the build lacked this series it’s the drift in the stick. I have heard from other gamers that it’s case by case but I have heard of more cases of them having drift too. I plan on finding another controller to replace this one at some point in time.

    I was first skeptical about paying this much for a controller, but it has absolutely been worth it. I will never go back to a regular controller. Have the ability to map additional buttons on the paddles have been a game-changer (literally)! I love the weight of the controller and it feels amazing in your hands.

    Was a gift for my 18 year old nephew. He was so excited about how many custom options he had available. As he put it it's like going from a Prius to a Corvette as far as performance.
