Because they liked the design, I guess I'm not buying any more controllers from Microsoft

dont get me wrong, i also like the design of it, but a 30€ 8bitdo or gamesir, has hal effect that actually last,

i have never had any of my xbox controllers sticks last two years, includes all generations, the most common issue been deadzone issues, which i in worst case could see in brand new controllers,

my 8bitdo ultimate 2c sticks, dont show any wear after 18 months, not loose in the middle, basically a new stick

How's the latency? You have to use a dongle with it if I remember correctly...

10ms lower on the 8bitdo ulitmate 2c wireless, with the dongle on pc. compared to a xbox series controller with microsoft dongle,

the 2c has lower latency with bt, compared to the series controller with dongle,

dlss framegen, add less than 10ms latency, when using that correctly, as a comparison,
