I absolutely love this controller! The settings on this controller are endless. The fact that you can switch out the thumbsticks and D-pad to fit your comfortability and play-style are great! The extra components and hair trigger locks are a plus. You can also personalize your controller and save your settings for which ever game you want it set for. Can't find anything bad to say about it. Like others have said, it feels great in my hands and I haven't been able to put it down! It looks beautiful in the box and comes with a neat carrying case to put it in. It's definitely called "Elite" for a reason.

Microsoft hit this one out of the park! The ease of configuration combined with the best weight and feel of any controller I've ever had in my hands. The paddles take some getting used to, but this controller can and will take your game to a whole new level. 3 different stick styles giving you pinpoint precision for aiming or driving. Did I mention it's freaking gorgeous? Can't say enough good things. 30 plus years of gaming and I found my thrill. Great job Microsoft!!!

While there are many positive aspects here and I'll attempt to list them all... if you don't need all that skip to the end for the most important statement. The positives... A comfortable heft The rubberized side grips are a welcome addition Adjustable trigger button dead zones Interchangeable analog sticks of various heights and d-pad Additional buttons in the form of paddles that can be mapped as you see fit Ability to switch between two different layout profiles on the fly Despite all that, there are a few downsides. First is the price. $150 is just unreasonably high. And I only purchased it because I had an abundance of rewards. The ability to set macros would have been wonderful. Doesn't use Bluetooth as the S controller does. And the companion app is not very well done it works yes, but its more pages and views than are really necessary to get the job done. Overall if this controller were say $100 I would be more willing to recommend it. Even being premium product, it's not premium enough to cost $150.

I was lucky enough to get the last one in a hundred mile radius after they were sold out online. I had to drive to Illinois and they happen to have one left and held it for me. It was just my luck honestly. I am happy I got one. It feels heavier than the original remote. I like the paddle shifter on the back, although they are hard to get used to.

Lots of things to love here. The build looks & feels premium. The customizable thumb sticks are great. Xbox accessories(Windows/Xbox app) allows for multiple mappings of the controller, stick sensitivity adjustments for various games allowing for two toggable configurations. This is the controller to have, period! Yes, it does work for the PS4 however you'll need to have a CronusMax Plus/combo or Xim4 to allow for multiplatform capabilities. This runs only wired though Fyi. So a pretty penny for all to work ;) If you bought this obviously it's for you or someone who games a lot so make sure to buy the additional Geek Squad Protection Plan for wear & tear. Purchased the 2 year option so any issues with the controller you'll essentially be able to replace. Don't drop, spill, throw it though since that's not covered lol. Though I'm sure your opponents will be throwing theirs ;) When I was young & dumb I ended up purchasing several controllers through the years which seriously adds up and this is just smarter/cheaper in the long run. It's not guaranteed however I see this working for at least the next iteration of consoles too (Scorpio) as it currently works with my PS4 Pro as well. In short - Worth it, insure it, take care of it, customize it and have fun!
