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.

Quality issues
|Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.r1 Button is not responsive. This controller had less overall lifetime value than other controllers I own. This is very disappointing for the price point
No, I would not recommend this to a friend TEST YOUR CONTROLLER
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned 2 of these that I bought IN STORE BRAND NEW and BOTH CAME DEFECTIVE straight out of the box. I didn't even got to really use them. The first one had an issue with the profile light 1 would not come up at all. Second one the p3 back pallet button would not work unless pressed really hard. On the second one I noticed the paddle issue right away because all the other ones make a clicking sound but the P3 would not. P4 was a bit strange too but it was working but I could tell that it was going to fail pretty fast. I recorded the unboxing and straight out of the box even 1 of the thumbstick was dirty. Keep in mind that both where SEALED and PAID FULL PRICE. I feel like Microsoft is re-packaging refurbished controllers as BRAND NEW when they are really not.

Microsoft keeps replacing them under manufacturer warranty. Takes 2 weeks every time. 1st was sent back for stick drift. 2nd was sent back for stick drift. 3rd was sent back for faulty RB. 4th was sent back for faulty LB. 5th is working well so far (3 months of use). Only buy with extended warranty.
