    I was leery to pick up another expensive controller since the v1 grips peeled on mine. It has been a few months of average use and I see much improvement. It feels great in my hand, grips are a little light but I’ve had no issues with it slipping. Battery life is good and I enjoy the new charging station. I really don’t use the back buttons all that much so I won’t speak in their function. The triggers are smooth but again not all games recognize the short trigger pulls. Overall it’s a great controller that is more of a luxury item over a need. If you have the funds, go for it. If not, you won’t miss a lot

    Great quality upgrade from the standard controller. Customizable everything really opens up gaming option based on different games played. No issues thus far.

    Good for what I paid for

    For what u paid for (used) it’s great! Unfortunately I was expecting to come in its original box but didn’t, which it’s still ok. It came with everything, the controller was spotless and scratch less too! But, as I expected for a used item, the left trigger had some registering problems on its lowest setting, besides that the rest of the controller works perfectly.

    The elite controller is very well built and great for xbox or PC gaming. Very customizable from changing analog sticks to increasing the tension of the sticks. The rear additional paddles are a game changer! Opportunitys are endelss utilizing those, Though at a price point of close to $200 finding one on sale would be a great purchase!

    Had the controller for 6 months, worked great, then R1 stopped being responsive. Now it takes a huge amount of force for it to register. Overall, the gamepad is ok, but besides the materials i think a regular series controller is better than this.

    Elite controller is the best there is. Make sure to get the warranty if a heavy handed or avid gamer. Will drift after a year, when original manufacturer warranty expires. Buttons might break. It's a controller, a $200 one. Get a warranty.

    Had issue with Buttons going out! Controller is very solid and feels high quality. Quality control could use work for functionality! Heard not all of the controllers have issues so you could get lucky and if you do its probably the best controller out there when it works!

    I’ve had this control for the last 6 years but I have replaced it every 2 years. One of the bumpers go out on it every year & a half or so. Other than that I have no issues whatsoever. Great control, but the 2 year warranty is necessary for the replacement.

    The controller has been rock steady for almost a year now and still performs flawlessly. It was easy to set up on the PC and has never had issues with connecting, or disconecting during gaming with the bluetooth connection. The battery life is very good as well, this will go several weeks without needing to charge for daily gaming. Highly recommend this product to anyone.

    I’ve owned two series 1 elites and so far this controller is quite the improvement for the most part. The buttons all feel about the same, but the grips seem to be implemented far better than the series 1’s grips. The only minor nitpick I have is the buttons (namely the paddles) feel almost too click (this is a matter of personal preference really), and they’re also slightly different in their shape compared to the series 1, which I thought it’s paddles were just fine and didn’t need tweaked. Other than that very minor gripe I think I love it. The rechargeable
