    Looks and feels great. I bought them for use with my laptop. The only con I’ve experienced is the input lag/disconnects when using Bluetooth can be infuriating.

    Has always been the superior controllers—next to the Xbox 360 controller of course. Didn’t realize how much I loved this controller after using my PS5 controller on my PC for so long.

    I purchased this controlling online through Best Buy and it was shipped from another company. The controller package was open and the controller was broken. There was a note stating that returns needed to go through this 3rd party company. I contacted them and was re-directed to start the return process through Best Buy. It has been over a week and still no word on the return of the product or my refund. I will NEVER order anything through Best Buy online again.

    Beautiful controller, however the volume is very low when I use my headset.... even at the highest volume it is still hard to hear. I've only had this problem with this particular controller which has me using it less frequently than my others, I'm pretty disappointed about it too. Maybe I got a defective one?
