    Xbox still producing low quality controllers. If you play every day for about an hour or two. It’ll last you about a year or so. If you play more than that the expect 6 months out of it before you have to buy a new one.

    I was a Sony system owner but switched to Xbox 5 years ago and since I was so used to PS4 controller layout, it did take a bit to get use to the Xbox controller but with latest model I love it because it is a tad bit smaller and it is a lot smoother with the buttons but red is my color so I had to buy this one.

  • Xbox One Controller > Xbox Series X Controller

    It hasn't even been a year and the right trigger dampener has become loose and now the right trigger sticks to the adhesive that the loose dampener has left behind. This is a known issue with the Series X controller. In contrast, my Xbox One controller which I got a couple years ago works perfectly. I would recommend getting the older controller over this shoddily made version.
