Pros & Cons
Pros
The battery life is long and can easily withstand a full day or more of gaming. It's accurate, there's no delay like in off-brand controllers and it fits well even in big hands like mine.
The controller fits quite nicely in my hand. It has a dense feel to it, and i don't feel any plastic creaking. Feels great, holds a long charge and no sticky button issues.
