    So comfy to play. Reminds me of my old xbox 360 controller. Plugged into my laptop and works great. Can finally play some games on my laptop using a controller. The colors are awesome too! Great quality product.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this controller, the light show is a bit gimmicky... perhaps for a younger individual, but the controller has some nice built-in features for dashboard, restart console, and some shortcuts for ease of use on the console.

    Thumbsticks dont register sometimes when you press down and move in a certain direction. I guess thats what you'd expect from a less expensive gamepad.

    It isn't the best, but it is good. It's still large, although the triggers are slightly smaller. Good value. Everything is good about it and you can even re arrange the controls.

    Decent Controller

    The Afterglow Wired Controller for Xbox Series X/S is an average controller that gets the job done. The buttons and sticks are semi-responsive, and the customizable lighting effects are a nice touch. However, it doesn't have quite as many features as some other controllers on the market. Additionally, the build quality feels a bit cheap and flimsy compared to more premium options. Overall, it's a decent controller that gets the job done, but it's not the best choice out there.

    Really cool controller. I bought it for my nephew who always wanted a green controller. Instructions were easy to follow to change the colors around.
