    As far as the use of this controller after 5 years of using the elite controllers I can't even go back to using a regular controller. I love this controller. On the other hand I've replaced my controller 3 times due to the left or right bumper not working after a period of time. My advice make sure to pay for the best buy coverage and replace it as needed.

    I had a minor issue with the left trigger after about six months of use but shoving a cotton swab where it seemingly didnt belong seems to have resolved the issue! This controller has seriously improved my ability to get killed in Call of Duty by kids with significantly more free time than me! In all seriousness though, this controller has ruined other great controllers for me. I love the PS5 controller but can’t play Warzone on it because I’ve gotten so used to the back paddles on this one, without them I feel naked in the battlefield. And do you know what it’s like to be naked in a battlefield? Everyone can see your grenades, it’s not a good feeling.

    My husband loves this controller so much. I think I catch our son using it as well. The buttons are better than the generic controllers the Xbox comes with.

    Best Xbox controller I’ve ever had. I normally only use one paddle to remap L1 but you can have 3 additional presets.

    First things first this is an expensive controller and there a lot of other things to spend money on. But if you have the funds or are looking for a gift for an Xbox gamer, this is an awesome controller package. Everything has been built from the ground up to be the best (within reason) way to play on Xbox. The interchangeable parts, the quick settings for how different parts like the d pad react to your input is really well thought out, the nice bonus here is the really nice case it comes in, the usb c charging capability and the charging dock that can either be in the case or outside the case.

    Was great, but not built for longevity

    I purchased mine shortly after it released, though it wasn't delivered until November of 2019. I'm mostly a PC gamer, but I need a controller for occasional games that don't require M+KB. This seemed like a very robust and long lasting option compared to regular xbox controllers at the time. In short, the features are great, and it worked very well for about a year, but then it started having issues with the bumpers not registering a press every time. Now it takes many presses to get the bumpers to register a keypress. The joysticks also have a tendency to bounce too far to the opposite direction when I release them, causing me to snap the opposite direction I was intending to face. I called Microsoft to ask about repair, and they were very nice, but also explained I was out of warranty and repair would cost $100 plus shipping. A new one is only $165, so that repair cost feels a little steep. It seems like such a waste to throw it away after not even two years, but it's no longer reliable for gaming. I was certainly hoping it would be easier and cheaper to repair. The controller has great features and feels better to hold for long gaming sessions, but I'm a little disappointed with the longevity of the device.

    Feels very nice in the hands. Battery life is more than enough for a couple days without charging. Bluetooth works flawlessly, and it easilt switches from conoles to bluetooth. Buttons and triggers feel good, and the texturing is comfortable whike still allowing for better control.
