    Great controller for the price. I prefer it over the official Xbox controller as the rumble feature feels better and the extra buttons are nice. The plug and play feature is great as well, no extra software needed to download. Highly recommend.

    So many programmable buttons feels good in the hands works flawlessly. Like I said in the age of cordless controllers this one is worth the money.

    Yo when I tell you to get this controller over the Xbox controllers, get it. I play Apex Legends & if you play you knooooow your controller needs to be on point to effectively counter not only the cheaters & the bots but also the brokenness of the game lol. The only slight difference I had to learn with this controller was the button placements because there’s extra buttons, but once I learned how to maneuver with this baby, my skill shot up even more. It’s only been a couple of weeks for me, so it’s still too early to talk about drifting but so far I haven’t had any issues. It can also take USB-C cables but make sure to buy a decent one because price does matter when it comes to cables. Other then that, if you were waiting for a sign or looking for a reason to buy this, HERE’S YOUR SIGN BABY!!!

    Works great with my gaming laptop. No glitches, no downloads to install for it to work. It was an easy plug in and play. I did have to update my computers controller firmware.

    Good but wears fast

    I do like this controller it is pretty good. I leave a 3* for a few things, randomly freaks out, back button quality, left stick quality, and bumper quality. The controller itself is nice having back buttons and alot of custimization with having the volume mixer and mute on the controller, the back buttons are nice and do last a while as long as you don't press too hard. The biggest issue is when the controller freaks out and it does a few things, the worst one is when the audio goes nuts it will blast me with static every so often. Another way the controller messes up is by dissconecting as a wired controller, the wire is fully secure and has no damage so it shouldn't dissconect and this is with the controller updated. One of the big down sides is the left stick wearing out so fast my first one of these lasted about 6 months before the left stick drift was too much and max deadzones did not help anymore. Using the second one of these controllers the left stick wore out in a month, this time I have recallibrated the sticks which did help the drift slightly. Initially the controller is great but it dosn't seem to take long to wear out. I suppose there is the warranty though.

    A real hidden gem, for a custom controller the price really can not be beaten. The only thing I found rather annoying was the lack of clear information on programming the auxiliary buttons. Fit, finish, and comfort are all great.
