    Bought as a gift for my husband, along with the Xbox one 1TB, no complaints. He loved it. Plays any chance he can get.

    This is pretty good for the price. I would buy Scuf controllers and it would cost you and arm and a leg but this is everything you need.

    Takes some getting used to but if you're good at shooters ( Destiny series, Rainbow Six, Overwatch) it'll help take you to the next level. Customize to your needs.

    This would absolutely get a 5 star review if the left bumper and right bumper keys weren’t so garbage. Make sure you get the protection plan. You’ll thank me later.

    The buttons are all interchangeable and connect magnetically. The customization of all the buttons are really cool too! Well worth the money!

    Don't purchase any other paddle controller go buy an elite controller. The button layout customization through the UI is a selling point alone. In addition, the trigger stops are amazing.

    For the price point for an open box discount was a good buy as long as you purchase the geek squad replacement for two years. Overall I really like this controller, so far.
