I thought I was ordering an XBox controller. Instead I got a controller that was made by Pelican. It does work with the XBox but within two days the protective covering over the guide control had torn and fallen off leaving a very sharop edge that cuts into your thumb. Now have to wear a bandaid over thumb to use control.. Also the guide control has become very loose and we are wondering just how long it will last. If I had known this was not an XBox controller, I probably would have searched further until I found the right one. This is the first time I hae been disappointed in any product I have ordered from Amazon, I realize this product came from a different supplier but thought since Amazone endorsed it, it would be alright. I probably will continue to order from Amazon, but will be more careful if item is from an outside supplier.

Two excellent things about this buy: realatively inexpensive and quick arrival. I should say “CHEAP” as well. The cable was WAY TOO SHORT and the “back” button doesn’t work. Like my review title states, “If it didn’t cost so much to ship back, I would” do so and question for a refund. Alas, I will not be purchasing anything more from this supplier.

Since MS no longer produces the original Xbox or Controllers, it is no small task to try and find a suitable replacement for the awesome Xbox Controller S. The Xbox Precision Controller manufactured by Pelican does a pretty excellent job.
The controller is slightly larger than the Xbox Controller S, which is not a terrible thing for my adult hands. Also, my 8 & 9 year ancient’s have no conundrum hanging on to it for hours.
The durability and ruggedness quality seem to be above average. It feels solid and comfortable in my hands. All buttons, D pads, Triggers, and thumb sticks have a very excellent feel – nearly identical to the original Xbox controller.
Two unenthusiastic items keep this controller from earning 5 stars: First, the START and BACK buttons are went to the middle of the controller, between the D pad and the Right Thumb Stick. The original Xbox controller puts those two buttons on the left side, more accessible for the left thumb. Pelican’s new positions for the BACK & START button are less well-located. The Second unenthusiastic note is the cord lacks a quick disconnect in case someone trips over the cord. The original Xbox Controller had it, this one does not.
All in all, I would buy this controller again. Splendid regard, splendid quality.

Just bear in mind that there are no extra black and white buttons on the shoulder. It’s the same as the normal XBox Controller S
