    We originally liked this red controller; however after a few months it started to act up and wouldn't work properly. Very disappointed in this product

    D-Pad is constantly inputting down and left after 4 months. Literally unusable. I don't get why this new, supposedly better, controller is broken yet my 3-year-old base Xbox controller is still in mint condition...

    Started having drifing button clicking, jittering from this after 2 weeks of purchase. Do not rely on this for any pc/xbox console pvp ranks. Microsoft.com engineers really don't seem to get it for years now.

      Hi Mikey,

      We're sorry there's an issue with your Xbox wireless controller. If it's still within Best Buy's return period, we recommend exchanging it for a new one. If that's not possible, please reach out to Xbox Support for assistance here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/controller-warranty

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Don't buy this!!! I bought one, great few days of play and nown wont connect to xbox. "Unreturnable" and no help. Thanks for a $60 paper weight. Won't be using best buy anymore. Amazon and ebay make best buy obsolete.

    Package sent in a larger box with no cushion to protect the controller. I receive toys in the mail with bubble wrap. Why would you not put bubble wrap for electronics?? Do better Best Buy. I will be returning this item.

    The B button stopped working after a couple of uses. Quality feels off from the one that comes with the Xbox.

    While Xbox makes a great controller, recent controllers are plagued by joystick drift! This one only lasted me 2 months. Really disappointed.

    Bought 7/2021 and already Jan 2022 a button randomly no longer is working. These seem to only last 6 months. Will order again with geek squad so they hopefully do back up the product

    The consile controllers have become an absolute joke to the customers. They're pretty much guaranteed to fail within the 3-6 months.

    The controller bricked itself after 4 months. Good thing I purchased a product protection plan. These controllers are NOT built to last.
