    Controller is okay, box came like it was already opened and cable was just thrown inside. Doesn’t feel new.

    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

    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.

    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.

    I give it a 4 star only because of the cord/cable that comes with it becomes a bit flimsy toward the Type C insertion point of the controller. Other than that, so far it's been a great controller.

    I bought this over a year ago as an open box item and just now decided to try it out, only to discover that it won’t connect to any windows 10 PC through the usb cable. I tried multiple ports and cables, and none of them resolved the issue. I updated my usb drivers, but that didn’t resolve the issue either. I’m really frustrated and disappointed.

    Worst experience ever ordering online. I’ve had so many retailers have a simple address change link or even call me. I forgot to write unit 1 and never arrived. And their same day delivery took a full week to even get processed. Worst ever no wonder they are going out of business! I used to love Best Buy but it’s just a crap company hanging on

    Ordered this new for curbside pickup. When I got home I noticed the tape didn’t seem like the original and the cable that comes included wasn’t even wrapped up, it was just in the box loose.

      Hi Mary,

      We're sorry that your experience with this Xbox wireless controller didn't meet expectations. If it's still within Best Buy's return period, we recommend exchanging it for a new one.

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Junk. Right stick started drifting/jumping down after less than 30 days. No better than much cheaper alternatives.
