This is my first time posting, so go easy on me!
I’ve noticed that there are a lot of deals available for Xbox controllers. I found a third-party Xbox controller at JB Hi-Fi for about $39. You can stack this with a $10 sign-up offer that JB provides when you create an account, making the controller only $30. I would say this is a pretty good deal! Keep in mind that it’s only available for shipping and pick-up, so I recommend grabbing one before they run out.
Dam, that was a fast comment, but I appreciate it.
Ahhh these are made by PDP. I used to own some of their peripherals, very cheaply made.
Honestly with $30 you can aim for those 8bitdo controllers that sometimes go on sales for $30-40. Last you much longer too and with wireless.
Yeah nah, 8bitdo Xbox ultimate is Junk.
Try something else
yup. PDP is the only controller that basicallt fell apart in my hands in a short time.
dont get sucked in by price
Very very good deal I'll grabbing pastel one so cute!
Aren't the genuine Xbox controller on sale for $59?
Came to say this!
Yep, but there Junk.
I'll never but another genuine Xbox controller again. Too many issues
Junk? I haven't had any issues. Seems very well made, nice to hold, and responsive.
I guess you don't use it much. I've had multiple issues, even sent one controller back to Microsoft 4 times in a matter of 3-4 months.

Ur either very lucky or you hardly play. There's many other articles if you search but those are the 2 main issues I've had. Along with Very noisy Trigger buttons.
Yeah, that’s true, but honestly, a third-party controller does the same thing. It might not be the best quality, but you’re just using it to game, not to hammer nails or anything.
Not even close, my 8bitdo ultimate hasn't had stock drift issue been using it for over a year and a half.
The RB button has given me problems but I've mapped back buttons to paddles which I prefer anyway.
Now I've got a gamesir g7, no issues with that so far
Hardware: Built-in, rechargeable battery with up to 40 hours of play time on a single charge
Wired controller with a built-in battery? Anyway…
I agree that the first party Xbox controllers aren’t the best; I’ve gone through a few with just normal, careful use. A random button stops working (usually a trigger) or the joysticks drift, while one just died completely. My Switch Pro controllers (and surprisingly Joy-cons) have had no issues in the same time period.
So sometimes I wonder if these PDP, Hori and Power A controllers are any good.
My nephews power a controller is great, but it's like $150+.
I'm curious to see how long it lasts
Nice first post. Good job.
