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.

    Good improvement coming from series one. Fits better in your hands. I would give it a 5 star but it started drifting 2 months after I got it. I'm sending it to Microsoft today for service. If you buy this, get the Best Buy service plan.

    The one I picked up was supposed to be Open-box in Excellent condition. However it was heavily used and abused. It was returned right away.
