Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
That red one looks legit good. If these drop < $100 I'll probably end up picking one.

Did they ever fix the QA issues with the controller? I almost picked one up a month ago but couldn't find any updates so I just went with a regular series controller.

Bought the white one on the day it came out (was it like 6 months ago?) and still works great. Phew.

It's kind of hard going back to regular series controller after this.

There is still stick drift. You basically pay more for the same trash. It will break in a few month of use, depending of what games you play. Like all modern controllers.
