Pros

Bluetooth pairing is excellent and fast. High quality, heavyweight weapon for * gamers.

Cons

Quality

Works as expected, good sound & does'nt eat up yur battery life

It worked perfectly and the quality is good

No stick drift after dozens of hours of gameplay.

It is not metal, it is plastic with a metal design similar to gold.

Price

This one does the job and i was impressed with how well for the price.

Got it on sale been eyeing this one for a while super impressed.

The lowest price i found it at was $54, on amazon prime day it is $56.

Purchase the extended warranty for 5 dollars.

Shipping

Got here fast and was ready for the game

Packaging/appearance

Good packaging, it wrinkled a little because i used amazon prime with free shipping.

Box came in a bag, not a cardboard box so it was dented a little, but doesn’t seem to have damaged the controller.

Competitiveness

This is an xbox controller and does everything you would expect exactly how an xbox controller would.

**conclusion:**in summary, the xbox core wireless gaming controller in carbon black is a stellar choice for any gamer.

Additionally, in the description of this page it tells you that the manufacturer is microsoft.

Just look for the option that says xinput or something similar in the current emulator.
