    This is the best controller on the market that isn't the full Elite Series 2. I have one of those that's out of warranty which has issues with the bumpers, so I picked this up as a cheaper replacement. Since I already have the full Series 2 system, this is all I need. Very comfortable, easy setup, works great.

    Customization at your fingertips, and a USB-C connect and charge port for connecting to PC without Bluetooth. Great for gaming on the Xbox or PC. The included charging station is substantial enough to survive my kids, and uses a magnet to keep the controlled fit snugly while charging.

    Picked this up as an open box. I love the feel and weight of this controller. I’m not a great player but this helps me play a bit better with the paddles and being able to assign what they do.

    Its a red elite controller! This one works out if you want to add your own paddles and joy sticks without having little baggies of them scattered about your home. I have not had any drift issues or imput problems with this, so thats always a bonus. Also, those metalic red triggers and bumpers are oh so pretty.

    The paddles on the controller make it easier and faster to initate moves and action of the game. The controller is more comfortable to use and has grips that keep my hands from sweating.

    I found this to work very well with the PC games I use. However there were some automatic features that were enabled that caused pop-ups to occur when I used various control buttons or combinations. It was extremely annoying and game breaking and took time, effort and research to find how to remove the "features" and be able to play how I wanted. Since I got this specifically for the easy compatibility I was quite disappointed. The quality of the controller, fit, finish and feel are all excellent.

    After not having used an Xbox controller since the first one, which was gigantic, this is a great feeling controller. A little small for my hands but it does bother me and still feels great. The buttons are responsive, and the build quality is great. Sometimes it has had a hard time connecting to my pc but that could just be a me thing.

    The feeling alone of the elite controller is worth the money. Then add in the paddles and hairpin adjustments, this controller is on a whole other level.

    Feels good in my hand when playing video games. I like the extra functionality that the paddles add. It feels a little heavy, but not enough to bother long play sessions.

    While I love how clean this looks in the white color, I love the feel of this second generation. I didn’t necessarily need the paddles in the back and I already had a charging solution so I didn’t mind just getting the core version.
