While some users reported issues with button wear and stick drift over time, the positive feedback on the controller's features outweighs these concerns.

    This is a very inexpensive game controller, but when you press the buttons it is extremely noisy!

  • Core Controller Discomfort?

    It's very comfortable. Anybody with long fingers should enjoy it as it sits well on the hands. If one is having trouble conforming to the original core controller, this is perfect.

    Fantastic controller. Simple LED light controls and it looks aesthetically pleasing, and the lights don’t get too bright. Great controller for the price usually new ones are $60 but this was $35. It also has a detachable usb connection from the base of the controller instead of the old connections for afterglow controllers that had the connection at the end of the controller instead in the previous generation of console. Overall just a clean looking modern controller that looks and feels good and you could customize the color and add a few effects of your choice.

    Purchased this as a gift for my son for his birthday for his xbox series s and it was a hit! It was a bit difficult initially getting the microphone to work with the controller but after 24hrs it synced And has been working well ever since. It is easy to use, easy to charge. Has several different light functions and vibration settings. 8 out of 10 would recommend this product
