    Blue is my favorite color. A reason for picking this controller but it just feels better than the older generation controllers.

    This is the 3rd controller purchased this year. The joystick on the right keeps breaking. It could be the game my son is playing requires heave use of that joystick causing premature degradation. When they are new, they are fantastic.

      Hello Haywood,

      We're sorry that there's an issue with your Xbox wireless controller. Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft. If it's still within the warranty period, we recommend contacting Xbox Support for assistance here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/controller-warranty

      Hope that helps,

    It seems like Microsoft fixed the issues from previous generations with this controller. It's a no-brainer if you catch it on sale. Everybody in the family has been using the exact controllers for years without issue. (That was unheard of with previous iterations.)

    The Pulse Red is a disappointment (as a color), as a controller mine was perfectly functional even as a discounted open box but I suspect it was returned because its not as red as most would like and the underside is white for some strange reason.

    The new control is awesome. I love the feel, the ergonomics, textures, everything. The only bad thing is that it kept disconnecting from my laptop (using bluetooth). It's an update thing, but something I came to find after an extensive google search
