    Feels very solid. I've only used it for about an hour but the quality seems really good. Everything about it just feels like higher quality than the regular controller.

    This WAS my 2nd elite. Ended up getting the white and black recently becuz this elite bumpers were messed up and the left thumb stick wouldn’t move my in game character forward nor sprint. I was out of warranty and couldn’t send it in. So I now have 3 elites smh. Series 1 and two series 2. Lol it’s a great controller for PVP and PVE. Just don’t drop the controller. Not even once.

    It feels much nicer than your run of the mill controller. As a casual gamer the back bunper buttons are kinda cool but take a lot of getting used to. The texturizes grips are great and the quality is good. Recommend grabbing on sale cause its not quite worth the full sticker price.

    It’s a great controller, but after only a couple of days, the B button started sticking. I have mailed it in for repair to Microsoft. I will update when I get it back.

    I was worried about stick drift when I first got this controller and returned it originally before deciding I would buy it again, but it's yet to happen to me and I really enjoy this controller. Ironically, Xbox has perfected and redone the design over the past couple years instead of releasing an Elite Series 3. Additionally, they purposefully made the Xbox Series X controllers small, and I think it was so people would buy the bigger Elite Series 2 controller. Because that's why I bought it, the regular Xbox Controllers and smaller and awful compared to this.

    Nice solid controller like msot of the elite series has been. Gotta be super careful never to get a drop of water on it or itll be done for. The texture on the grip isnt my favorite in the least. Used this for a couple years, but glad i got the Envsion Pro for my PC.

    Besides some of the rubber coming up it's been a solid controller. Probably the best one I use in my whole life. With the Xbox companion app you can map the back buttons and pretty much set up the controller how you want with customizable sticks and d-pad. I've been able to use this on my S7 tablet also

    got plenty of use of mine and enjoyed it greatly but like the series 1 before it the price increase does not come with durability increases. will the grip issue of the series 1 seems to be 99% fixed i was/ am seeing minor expansion after this year that could become problematic if other parts like the bumpers and sticks retained their life better. *when i mention durability ive never once thrown or otherwise put nonstandard ware and tear abuse on the controller but it seems that since even the 360 era microsofts controllers just aren't made to last daily use of 5+ hours for a full year

    Comes in a great case for carrying and storage. Works as intended - feels far better than the XBox One controller I was using prior to this. I am using on PC, and the paddles and adjustability of the controller makes fore a great product. Little pricey, but worth the investment if you game at all and need a solid controller.

    Overall a great controller plus the bundle with the extra paddles and charging dock/carrying case. Well worth the price compared to just the core controller. I use mine on pc which was a simple bluetooth connection, plus programmable outputs.

    Best controller i have used in a long time

    Over all great controller the grips make it really easy to grasp after long intense play. Trigger stops are a huge improvement over the previous version with the ability to have a 3rd more subtle option rather then default and full stop. The joystick tension is a welcomed addition as well although i wish there was a 4th adjustment setting which allowed for an even looser then stock. The controller also have phenomenal battery life. On several occasions i have gotten 4 days of use with 6 hrs of play time on and off. Other then that theres not much to say is it worth 170$ is up to you but to me its a great controller i would strongly reccomend.

    Saw this controller online and I had to get it because it looks really good and I've heard some good reviews on it. Best Buy Customer Service was amazing. When I arrived everyone was friendly and as soon as I requested my Item they went to go get it fast for. Overall I haven't had any issues and it works well no problems. Product feels good when holding.

    This controller feels extremely high quality and the customization options on PC and Xbox are great. The only problem is that I have had bad luck with stick drift with my first controller, but I'm not sure if it's a single unit problem or a general design issue. My replacement one is currently working great

    The elite controller feels more solid/heavier than a standard xbox controller and has more attachments for buttons/triggers which helps in a variety of games. I do recommend getting the warranty though because I had issues with my first one not connecting correctly and disconnecting randomly. My 2nd one has fared better but the nubs on the back that switches the tension fell off within the year. Other than that the battery life is good and it charges via USB-C.
