    If you're looking for a cheap xbox one controller look no futher, I personally use it for my PC but I also use it when I'm at a friend's house or whatnot, its a solid controller and I liked the compactness of it compared to the original one, although a slight hitch when connecting it to my PC I just looked up drivers for it and it worked.

    This controller I bought specifically to play NHL 16 on Xbox one. It's a difference maker for me. NHL 16 has input lag and when using this controller the input lag becomes non existent. I believe it gets better reception for commands because its wired. Has great feel to it, I like it better than the original controller that came with Xbox one.

    not a bad controller for the price. you can plug your old headset straight into it without the need for an adapter. it doesn't feel like sturdy design but if looking for a cheap 2nd controller it does the job well. its wired so no need to charge and recharge all the time.

    The controller is perfect for when one person is playing and there aren't people walking between the player and the TV. Otherwise, you might knock the wire out. (It has a safety disconnection near the USB end of the cord as if anticipating that this might happen.) It's a nice alternative to our wireless controllers because it doesn't require batteries. Feels light and plastic, but functions perfectly -- now that I unscrewed the left half of the controller to free up the sticking left button. Probably would recommend, but check out all the functionality before you throw away the packaging.

    Needed an extra controller for the GF, but she doesn't play enough to shell out the $60 for a Microsoft one. This one fit the bill perfectly. Super happy with the response, weight & vibration function of it. Would def. recommend as an alternate accessory.

    My original Xbox one controller took a down turn when the right thumb stick died on me. This controller, while it feels cheep, does the job. It's inexpensive to boot! I would definitely recommend this over more expensive alternatives

    definitely a step down from the microsoft game pad. I just got tired of replacing batteries(including rechargables) I wanted to see how the wired works. My 11 year old does stray far from in front of the TV so the cord is long enough. It's just that the buttons aren't that price. Hard to say the over all ratting being that it's still early in its life.

    I bought this for my sons xbox and its great. The cord is long enough about 8 feet. No issues at all. Very sturdy controller. Get it better than wasting battery on the wireless ones.

    Bought this because I wanted a second controller for multiplayer and wanted corded one so it would stay on at idle during game. Cord is more than long enough. Controller is slightly larger than stock controller, which is nice since I have large hands. The ONLY qualm I have with this controller is LB and RB feel cheap and when using RB alot in Saints Row, RB stopped working. After playing around with it, it started working again. For the bestbuy price, well worth it. Would not recommend for children though, as I believe the controller feels like it would break easily.

    Since the wireless controllers are so expensive (in my opinion) and I really only needed an extra controller for when buddies come over, this was a great purchase. The cord is a great length and not needing batteries is a huge plus! Great Value

    It is only a wired controller but convenient that you don't use batteries. My right RB button is getting stuck after only 16 days. Right after the return policy. It is see through so I saw the problem and had to disassemble and push the rod back in. After three days of use, it seems to be popping out again. If you purchase, get the best buy warranty.

    We don't use the control often, only on the rare occasion we do split screen. It works fine for that. It is really lightweight and love that it doesn't require batteries.

    Good backup controller

    The overall feel of the controller is good. Not quite to the level of the original, but pretty good. Only one issue (Which paperwork says will soon be patched) is that all audio goes though the controller is plugged in. So if using this you have to wear headphones to listen. But the patch is supposed to also add on screen audio controls which will be nice.

    Great Controller, but...

    Well the controller is great as far as ergonomics are concerned. It obviously won't feel like the wireless controller that comes with your system, but still great nonetheless. However it did have faulty wiring. The microphone/headset jack outputs left ear as right ear and right ear as left ear. So if you tried playing a shooter for example you would hear someone on your left side when really they were standing on your right side. I would otherwise recommend this wired controller.

    Like this controller a lot. I actually bought it to use with my PC for Windows games and although it's not a M$ brand controller it worked perfect just plug and play. Would highly recommend.
