    My first wired controller. I’m very impressed. Would recommend it if you want a wire control controller.

    I bought this controller on a half-off Black Friday deal because I wanted a second controller to use with my laptop so I could keep my primary controller with my Xbox. This is a good controller for the price I paid. First the good: This controller works well for playing Forza Horizon 5. The sticks are both responsive and seem accurate. I mapped the back paddle buttons to control shifting up and down, and that made a big difference but takes some getting used to if coming from the standard Xbox controller. The included USB-C to USB-A cable is long and feels like it's good quality. This is a wired controller, so no need to worry about batteries. You can save 4 different controller profiles, making it easy to switch between games. Now the less than good: Sometimes the buttons require a slightly harder press before anything happens. It's not every time, but it's enough to make it annoying in the middle of a game. The locations of the back buttons feel awkward. The process of mapping these buttons seems a little convoluted, and I don't know if I can remember how to change it if I lose the instructions. All in all, a good controller if you can get it cheap.

    New to the area and have been coming here for a lot of supplies for a setup recently, staff is all super friendly and helpful while also not hovering or bothering. No extra fluff there, just wanted to say this is a good store. As for the controller, I love it. Take extra good care of it and keep it clean to prevent early stick drift on it though.

    The controller is good. It has all the functions that you would want in a device of its caliber. It has the basic, necessary functions for any play style as well as the back buttons that help with additional functionality. It hasn't stick drifted yet, which was my previous issues with X-controllers. So far so good!

    Got this controller when it went on sale. Replaced my wireless xbox one. Having a wired controller os great because you don’t need to worry about batteries. The mappable buttons on the back work great and are mapped out easy enough. Being able to have 4 different “modes”( each one you can map the back to different buttons to suit different games) is awesome.
