Customers are saying
Customers are delighted by the controller's exceptional overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. Users also frequently praise the device's comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality tactile feel. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the durability of the buttons and bumpers, as well as the early onset of stick drift. Despite these technical frustrations and the premium price point, many still consider it a top-tier gaming accessory.

Best controller

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller for gaming especially for call of duty games
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:A button
Way too expensive to have hardware issues
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first one I got had the (very common) issue of the A button not always registering. It was, like other reviewers have said, registering maybe 9 times out of 10. I thought it was a software issue at first but even in the companion app's test feature you could see it not registering. I used my warranty to replace it through Microsoft. The second one I received had the exact same problem. I had it replaced again. The third one had the same problem with the A button, but also the Y button and right bumper were sometimes registering two distinct presses when you press and hold. My replacement warranty is now expired and I have very little faith sending it in for repairs will fix anything. Wishing I had returned it right away.

Hopeful!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ordered this hoping it was the last controller I’d need. It didn’t end up responding well and some buttons were unresponsive. The extra paddles actually made it less comfortable to hold.

I would recommend this to a friendWorth if for big gamers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Much improved over gen 1. Uses new USB type C for charging and is completely rechargeable with no battery packs
I would recommend this to a friendRight thumbstick
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Maybe it’s just this specific controller, but more times than not the right thumbstick is super sensitive and sometimes over moves to a direction… kinda like a deadzone problem… makes it hard to aim consistently
I would recommend this to a friendGood upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Broke down and upgraded from the series 1. Not a bunch of changes from that one. It feels better and feels sturdier than the previous version.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Controller - More durable than the last one.
