    After 1 year of use I need to buy a new one. I think that the quality of the controller are really bad.

    New style is pretty cool, but the A button seem to stick and after a week hoping it would loosen up, we returned it and bought the older model.

    The X button sticks when i use it, whenever i try to clip something the controller disconnects. Hood controller when you get used to those 2 things but as of right now i’m planning on returning and getting a new one to see if it’s persistent.

      Hi there,

      We're glad that your new Xbox controller is working well for you, but sorry that it didn't arrive in a satisfactory state. If there is an issue with the controller, or you would like undamaged packaging, we recommend contacting Best Buy customer service for an exchange.

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Out of the three controllers I’ve had for my Xbox Series S, two of them (including this one) have had major issues with sound and drift. All three have had stick drift issues. Hoping they get better controllers soon, as they’re not the best for daily gamers.

    Hello, I am disappointed with the game code, when I tried using it, it showed that it was already used. Not able to return the product now but yeah that was not expected at all. Can anything be done to get a new code?

    Works great but it’s missing the rechargeable battery pack. I specifically asked a Best Buy employee if it was included since this was a gift and they told me it surely was included. Although I was sad to find out the pack was not included and batteries needed to be purchased later.

    Looking for a cable to charge a rechargeable battery. Sold out everywhere. Thought this might do the trick but no, it only powers the controller it WON’T recharge a Microsoft rechargeable battery. None of the reviews or info online would tell you this. Had to purchase and experiment myself.

    While wireless is the mainstream, being able to have the backup wired option is great. Especially PC if you want that connection, and not worrying about battery power. Simple connection for your needs

    Stick Drift Strikes Back

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Bought this to replace my original controller after it initially started suffering from left stick drift and eventually the left stick (press down) button stopped working completely. After about three months I noticed some left stick drift on this controller, followed by the right stick, and now the left stick has significantly worsened (on menus the controller cycles through all of the options constantly on its own). It has gone from a nuisance to affecting gameplay. Pressing down on the left stick still works/registers; once this goes I will likely have to replace the controller again.

    Ive gone through 4 controllers. Probably should've added geek squad protection on this order. The thumbsticks seem to either drift or rubber tips come off.
