Quality


I’m very impressed with the quality so far.


It feels solidly built and like a sufficiently mid-grade product.


There are a ton of aftermarket controllers for sale now, far more than there used to be and it's hard to determine which are de...  Read More


Given all of that, it feels well-priced.

It connected instantly and worked great right out of the box.

    Im not going to name the brands but there are two other fairly big 3rd party controller makers out there whose names both start with p and they always start off feeling okay at best and getting much worse really quick with some having sticky buttons stick drift or stopping functioning altogether within just a couple of months

    That said ill update this review if it dies within a short time of normal use


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The face buttons are noticeably smaller than most other current gen official and knockoff xbox controllers


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The center navigation buttons are a bit mushy as are the triggers

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This is my first controller with the extra buttons on the back so i had to adjust how i hold things so i wouldnt accidentally hit them but they dont do anything if you dont install the software which has really poor reviews in the windows store but they seem to mostly be from people who didnt have this brand of controller
