    Super glad I chose to purchase the Wireless Elite Controller! I've used other controllers as well as paddles for them but nothing compares to this. The paddles feel natural and can be removed if you don't need them. Controller feels very premium. Definitely worth the money. I use this Controller for both Xbox and Pc and have had a great time doing so.

    IMO, these controllers are a game changer. I set the paddles in the back to correspond with the A, B, X, Y buttons, so I never have to use my right thumb for those buttons. And you can custom map all the buttons on the controller, and save them as a profile to load into the 3 slots for quick change outs. It's nice for those games that only give you preset control options.

    The controller is great and works...when you do not get a defective one. We had to go through 3 before getting a good one. Some of the issues are: The A, B, and X button would get stuck. You would press it in and it would stay in. The trigger locks come off. They still work, but the rubber piece came off. The right trigger you would press it in and it would stick randomly. Now the good: *Charging is great. Never a problem. One charge would usually last 40 hours, we've never tested this because we put it on the charger after each use. So, it will last for probably that long. *It feels comfortable in your hand, especially playing long gaming sessions. *It has a long range. You can sit a good distance away from Xbox without any connection issues. *Syncing is great. Never had a problem with that and it is very easy to do.

    The elite is a tank of a controller and the paddles arent flimsy or built into the controller so if you’re getting heated you don’t have to worry about snapping them

    I love these controllers for the Xbox. My wife bought me one and it's been great to use. Awesome battery life. Can pair with laptop and phone too. Charges relatively quick. Comes with a case and extra accessories. Can change the color on the app.

    I love this controller. Soo good. I use the extra back buttons and tabs all the time. Makes gaming so much better now. Also the new d-pad should be standard now on new Xbox controllers it’s that good.

    The controller paddles took a little to get used to and build muscle memory but once you get the hang of it your reflexes in fps and other games that require quick response times is significant improved. That coupled with the fact the controller is barely heavier that a standard wireless controller and has rubber grips makes the purchase very much worth it if you were on the fence about it

    I know there have been a lot of backlash on this controller, and I can't comment on durability. I have enjoyed it a lot, and having extra paddles helps with playing games, so you can keep fingers on thimbsticks. Adding the 2 year protection plan from Best Buy also makes my mind at ease with durability. I would only buy it at best buy.

    Very comfortable especially if you think the regular controller is a little small but it’s not a huge difference. Enjoy the better and customizable parts. 100% recommend product protection.

    This is a fantastic gaming controller. The only downside is that the grip starts to come undone with heavy play.

    I have two of these and I think they are the best controllers ever. The heavier weight feels great and the joysticks are very smooth. I have the total tech on them and if they ever have a problem I just swap it out for another. Highly recommend

    Great so far, have only had it for about a month. I use it to play PC games, the plug and play is always simple for xbox controllers and this one is no different. I like the paddle buttons very much. Battery life seems fantastic so far, and the case is awesome.

    I love the look of this controller and how it feels in hand; however, once you start using the paddles on the back of the controller playing a game it feels very small and sometimes accidentally clicking the wrong paddle. It is very nice for sure and I love how customizable it is, but needing to go into settings for connected devices, then to finally being able to set it all up how you want… it can be kind of annoying.
