    Don't buy the red one

    I’ve purchased multiple Xbox controllers in different colors and had the same issue happen with 2 of the red ones after about 7 months of usage. The right stick drifts. This only happens on the red ones, not the white or blue remotes I own.

    Quit working - no refunds

    Purchased this controller brand new in-store less than five months ago. The left stick started getting such bad drift after 3 months, it’s no longer usable. Of course I’m past the return window, so I can’t get a refund or even exchange the product. Xbox controllers don’t typically have this issue (especially when purchased new and after just a few months of use), so I don’t believe this was truly “new”. I think it may have been a returned item put back on shelves and resold. Note: I am not a heavy ‘gamer’. I play one Xbox game and occasionally use the console for streaming services. This controller does not get frequent enough use to have this issue. I cleaned the controller, did a hard reset, reconfigure, hooked up the controller to the Xbox, tried everything recommended to fix drift in case it were to be an electrical issue— Nothing worked. So I’m just out $50. I wouldn’t trust purchasing this from Target again, unfortunately.

    Cheaply made, get protection plan

    Beware of cheap product! I've bought 4 controllers in 3 years, they break in less than 6 months. The left joystick usually wears out and makes the controllers impossible to use. You're going to want the protection plan unless you want to shell out $65 dollars every 5 months or so...

    Stick Drift :(

    I have had this controller for 3 months and it already has that funky stick drift going on. And the XY thumb stick already has discoloration. I don’t even game that much, just a few hours after work and then on the weekends.

    Love the look, plays great — but some wear and tear issues

    I really like this controller overall — the lime green color is super bold and looks awesome in person. It’s comfortable to hold, connects easily, and gameplay feels smooth. Buttons are super responsive when new, and it’s a solid choice if you want something fun and different from the usual black or white. That said, the bright color shows dirt and grime pretty fast, especially around the buttons and joystick. I clean mine often but it still builds up. Also, after a couple months of regular use, I started noticing a bit of stick drift, which is disappointing at this price point. If you take good care of it and don’t mind wiping it down often, it’s a great controller — just be aware that it might not stay flawless with heavy use.

    Trashhh

    Broke just after 3 months (ironically enough right after the warranty ended). This is our third one, just a different color - all break within 6 months or less. TOTAL OVERPRICED JUNK. Don’t waste your money or time. I’ve spent over $150 on these controllers with nothing to show for it.

    Lots of static and interference.

    I don’t have issues with lag, but I do have issues with the audio jack. It’s staticky, in and out, and eventually it doesn’t work at all. No it’s not my headphones because it happens with a different cord and a different set of headphones.
