    I made the mistake of purchasing this controller. I thought it was rechargeable. It's AA battery powered. With that being said, quality stick. Looks cool, comfortable in hand, and holds up well.

    Bought this for my husband and he loves it! The color is great. He plays COD and 2k majority of the time. It comes with batteries, they lasted a good while. But, he already has the rechargeable batteries to swap in and out. Overall, great controller.

    Futher improvement on one of the best controllers ever made. It is slightly smaller than the Xbox One controller and they have added some texture to the grips for more traction. The triggers are smoother and the buttons are slightly lower to allow for easier, quick presses.

    This controller is very good and it just works. The batteries that come with it last a decent amount of time. I also purchased rechargeable batteries to go along with this controller.

    Microsoft controllers are good and get the job done. But if you’re a heavy gamer, I strongly recommend you purchase the extended warranty. Either the lest analog or a bumper button will go bad within a year.

    I’ve owned the controller for a few weeks. It’s built to be sturdy, comfortable, and stylish. I first thought the all red would be too much, but I’m liking it more now. Bluetooth compatibility works well with my iPad too. Overall, great choice, for the $60 price
