But then not even passed a month the cheap plastic to hold left trigger into place breaks easily, and now my left trigger does not work, so it is exposed and see inside wires/etc.

I bought four of these wonderful controllers for my arcade pedestal. These controllers are great. Nice feel on the analog sticks. I love these controllers!!! Carbon fiber look on the back matched my pedestal. Color adjust allowed me to match each player.

They dropped the price on this probably to clear out the shelves and make way for the new official controller for Xbox one, but if you don't have the money for that and need something to play and well don't mind being plugged in, this is a great controller, actually seems a little quieter than the controller that came with the Xbox one, a little less clicks, got this for my wife to use, she loves that it lights up with what colors she chooses, she even changed the colors and left it out for me to play with , that's not something you usually see her do, so got a kick out of that. No complaints here was a great purchase and that cord is just long enough so it's not really a hassle!

Cool Light Up Controller

Had two previous Microsoft made controller sticks break as I have large hands and use force on sticks. Bought controller searching for a stronger made product, not for light up features. To my surprise I acttually enjoy the light up features. Not only can you adjust various colors, but you can dim the lighting. This far the sticks are holding up and the controller has a good fit for larger hands. Some may not like that it's wired, but with the long cord I don't notice a difference from my wireless. Overall a very solid item for less cost than a faulty Microsoft controller.

Great for solo play. lights are fun and have kept me from stepping on controller many times as I often play in the dark. Downside there currently is No way to use chat headset with these controllers. So until they release a wireless headset this controller will sit mostly unused as I play multiplayer online and wish to be able to communicate with other players.

Packaging didn't clearly state the this was a word controller, so that was an unpleasant surprise. The control has a nice, premium feel to it. The color options are very nice, although cycling through the colors can be a hassle. It was worth the sale price of $30, but not more.

Very solid, lightweight ergonomic, love the lights.
The buttons for the lights are in the back center of the controller so you never have to worry about accidentally hitting them.
The lights on the grips are separate from the center of the controller so you can make cool color combinations.
I've dropped this controller many times with no issues and the cable has been pulled apart alot thanks to my cat and still no issues.

I didn't like it too much because it's wired. It has to be plugged in to the USB port to work. The color feature is great for kids you can control the light settings easily with a push of a button there are three buttons on the back where the battery pack would be on a wireless and you can change the color of the lights on the handles separately from the lights on the top. You can also have the lights change colors constantly which is the coolest feature of the lights. You can even have the handles changing colors while the top stays one color or vice versa. Kids love it.

does its job and the light up features are cool, its a good battery saver, however, why would the company that made it not have a headset port? Its designed for a new next gen gaming console where people play online in groups and with friends and communicate. Not having a headset port really hinders it.

Bought this for a gift for my niece. She enjoys the color changing options. I wish it was cordless but at least the cord is long enough to where she can sit back from the TV.

Got 3 of these on sale for $25 so that we would have 4 Xbox One controllers for playing Halo. Great controllers for the price we paid. The lights look really cool and the controllers work fine and have long cords. My fiancée wishes it was easier to cycle through the colors but other than that we both love them.

I bought this controller after looking at all the other ones online. Some were more expensive and bland. Decided to get this one bc it didn't need batteries ( the cord is super long! ) and it lit up which I like! I would recomment this product!!

Everything works great. Cord long enough and the lights are pretty cool when playing in the dark. The only set back is you can't use your mic with it

Bought for my girlfriend because of the "pretty lights"... hey it gave her a reason to game with me, so it worked! The controller itself is pretty solid too. I liked the feel of it actually better than the regular Xbox One controller as it feels to me more like a PS4 controller (which I prefer). The trigger buttons are somewhat touchy and the slightest touch sometimes results in the button sticking, but its manageable. Not recommended for highly competitive games due to this, but it should be great for anything else.

I purchased this as a second controller for my son to have others play with him and he loves it, it has multiple combinations with the lights and it works well. The cord is long which makes playing with it fun and not cumbersome.

I had no idea that this remote had so many options for selecting a color, which lights up at either random or your preference. This is a great product if you are looking for a controller.
