    The controller constantly disconnects for less than a second despite being full battery. Still works but gets in the way while playing games.

      Hi Antonio,

      We're sorry that there's a problem with disconnects using your new Xbox wireless controller. Random disconnects can occur for multiple reasons, including low battery and competing wireless devices. We recommend troubleshooting the problem with Xbox Support here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Many people are not aware of this, but, Microsoft actually shrunk the size of the controller this time around, it is slightly smaller than the last gen controller. Microsoft said they did it to increase usability for children, the problem is, it is now less usable by an adult. Expect hand strain when using. In addition I had issues with random disconnects when trying to use it on PC. Going to return both and get the Dual Sense instead.

    Unfortunately Microsoft has to do a little better with a product like this!!! Because unfortunately the Xbox joystick continues to suffer from what is called,stick shift! And if this continues,it well be a bad karma on the Xbox brand!!! So i hope indeed Microsoft will fix this problem!!! And soon as possible!!!

    Great Controller, But Not For Me

    This is a great controller. The color shifting in the light looked great and everything, and I would definitely would recommend this controller to any Xbox gamer out there. Unfortunately, the controller felt big in my already big hands and it wasn't as comfortable as the DualShock 4, DualSense, Switch Pro controller, or even the Stadia controller. I'm more used to the symmetrical analog sticks. Otherwise, it is a great controller that I would definitely recommend to almost anyone.

    This was a gift for a friend. They liked it's color. This is third one for them, so I guess they like them for multiple players.

    way too expensive has stick drift in less than 9 months of occasional use. still have ps4 controllers that work great and they are getting close to a decade old. Microsoft should up their quality or add driver support on pc for other brands of controllers that actually last!
