    The devices charge speed over USB-C is very fast with a good power source. An edge up in game being able to utilize your extra fingers on the back of the controller. The magnetic quickly swappable joysticks, D-Pad and, Paddles are truly easy enough to do between games loading. A perfect controller for someone who travels between multiple Xbox’s too keep their muscle memory and settings consistent with on-controller profile select.

    I love this controller! The weight, the bulkiness, very durable, and yet comfortable. My main complaint is that its got a classic elite controller issue. The previous model always had problem with the bumper buttons and joysticks. This model currently has no problems with the joystick but instead the L Bumper. Elite controller buttons are always getting jammed or stuck

    I always like elite controller too. It has its faults if you press down too much on leftstick stick drift after 3 months of hard gaming only. When I say hard gaming no Job I always buy the two-year warranty because I use it every three months. I wish they would make the sticks out of titanium or something.

    This went on sale for $85.00 so I got 2 for xmas presents. Huge upgrade from the standard models. I love the adjustable trigger controls and the feel from the joy sticks. I have not gotten a chance to use the app and remap button configurations yet but, I'm sure it will work well with any FPS game.

    One glaring issue

    At first I really did love the feel of this controller. Add in the ability to customize your joysticks, dpads, and paddles really had me happy with the purchase. Unfortunately after only a couple months, my right bumper mysteriously stopped registering for certain presses and eventually just stopped working. After looking at forums and various reviews, I’ve noticed this is a common problem with the controller which makes me wonder if this means they released a faulty controller with a $200 price tag and didn’t care. At the end of the day, it is a very solid controller and when it worked, I loved the feel of it. Unfortunately that doesn’t justify a $200 dollar price tag when there is such a glaring issue that multiple people have dealt with. Microsoft, hopefully with the next elite controller set, this will not be an issue. If you don’t need your bumpers, this controller is perfect, but most games I play do so it’s a no go for me.

    Been gaming for 20 yrs....had the OG xbox all the way to Xbox X using the normal controller. The controller started sticking on the trigger and buttons, and I was getting more time on competitive Destiny 2 so I said "what the heck...let's bite the bullet and see". This Elite controller is cheating. Period. By all measures higher quality. You will have trouble getting used to the paddles, but keep on it. Enjoy playing competitive SIGNIFICANTLY more. Would/will buy again in the future, which I hope is a while away based on the build quality.
