Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options offered by this controller. Users frequently highlight the comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality feel during gameplay. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the long-term durability of the buttons and the potential for stick drift. Additionally, while many appreciate the design, some find the premium price point and specific bumper functionality to be areas for improvement.

    Controller is very nice and feels good in the hand and has some good features but for $200 I feel like they could have done more

    So far so good. I do find that it would disconnect 1 out of 20 times during use

    First controller had issues, 2nd one is fine. I'm not sure about the quality of this controller, it seems good but not at the same time. If you get it get the warranty.

    Stick Drift Issue and Poor Customer Service

    The design defect with the "stick drift" is more than real. I've had this for less than a month, but the stick drift issue came about almost 2 weeks in. The characters move on their own and there's no way to stop it in the settings of the control. I reached out to BestBuy and they can't replace it because they don't have an adequate stock supply. (According to the customer service rep). So I guess, they have an adequate supply to sell, but not to replace defective ones? It's a poor catch-22 for such a reputable company.

    I love the look, feel, and features but this is my 3rd controller in less than 2 years. The first 2 were defective out of the box and now the 3rd one is having bumper issues. For something so expensive it should be made better. I have older controllers that cost $60 that still work fine. Save your money or get an extended warranty.
