    This controller is great! I haven't even used the bottom paddles yet, but just the weight, look, feel of this controller is so much better than the stock XBOX ONE controller. Wait for it to go on sale and buy a couple. You wont regret it.

    If you’re a competitive gamer, a controller like this is almost a necessity. The paddles on the back are absolutely priceless in fast paced shooters like Call of Duty, Apex Legends, and Fortnite. With the paddles mapped to the face buttons out of the box, you never have to remove your right thumb from the analog stick to perform other actions. This means you can run and gun, keeping your thumb aiming at opponents, while the rear paddles handle other duties like jumping, crouching, reloading, opening doors, picking up items, etc etc etc. You will find yourself playing faster and more aggressive and in your face, because you can do more things at once. Taking the violence, speed, and momentum, right to your opponents. Ya ya

    When compared to the controller that comes with the XBox One you can tell the difference. This controller feels better in your hand more heavy duty. It would be a good purchase when on sale. The changeable joysticks help customize your game play experience and switch out very easily.

    I love the controller and it definitely helps my game, but for the price, I don't think it was worth it. I'm no competitive gamer, I just wanted something to give me a little edge, and it does that, but at a pretty hefty cost. Also, you pretty much have to retrain yourself how to use a controller.

    The controller is really easy to use and customize. You can keep 2 separate configurations and switch between them quickly. You can add or remove the paddles if you like and the hair triggers are great. Overall a great controller.

    Controller is great, thumbsticks are smooth and being able to swap out sticks and add paddles are a great bonus. It's got some added weight compared to a regular controller but you get used to it in no time.

    Awesome controller with good feeling but the price is very high for a controller. It's made very well. You can feel it Once you grab it. If you have the cash good buy. If not I would pass and get a normal one. Let's hope it stands the test of time.

    Solid controller. Hair triggers are awesome. I don’t use all of the back paddles, just one. Can take awhile getting use to them. I would recommmend this, price does seem a little high but I think it’s worth it.
