    The only reason it's not 5 stars is because I had connectivity issues . Turns out it needed a firmware update to fix it. Not very clear unless you do a quick search to find the issue. Now works flawlessly. Best feeling controller on the market.

    I love the colors on this thing. Slight damage from shipping on the box, and there was some debris on the controller when I looked at it (Lint, some dust) Seems to be open box sold as new. Still an amazing product, would recommend.
