My partner uses this everyday and it's held up just great! Well worth itI have purchased two separate controllers of different designs & both have d-pad issues. I probably wouldn't complain if it weren't for the price. You figure for the amount of money they expect people to dish out, they'd check if they messed up the controllers after disassembling them. Honestly I wouldn't recommend them.I've had the project Scorpio controller ever since release, it's been having some slight issues so I bought this one. I love the feel of it and the colors, however my complaint is the connection. I connected it and ran the proper software update and still I'll be in the middle of playing and my controller decides to shut off or randomly blink as if losing signal to my Xbox. I sit in the same place when I game and nothing is blocking the Xbox itself. It's quite complicating to play a game and your character won't respond to jumps or turning because the controller decides to lose signal at terrible times. It also has deadzones issues and multi click issues, I press a button once and it acts like I hit it multiple times. On top of that after opening it up to figure out the issues I noticed damage on the top inside of it looking like it had been melted or stabbed by something.Great controller worth every pennyThis control is smacking lacking i love the way it looks, feels plus ez to cleanThis controller connect the first time I 7sed it and never again.Came pretty quick and works well! Did come out of the box with the right side popped out so it scratches me every now and then but other than that it works great!The controller just arrived at 2PM November 14th, 2021 and I very quickly found that pressing left on the D-pad does not work very well. I have to press it kind of hard and it's a little disappointing for the price it's at, something lile that should not go out.
