    This is by far the best xbox controller. Best feel in the hands, love the paddles, long battery life, and charging case. Downside is that theyre known to have problems a year or so down the road. Not a problem with my Total Tech subscription. You get a free two year protection plan. So I’ll get a new one if this one if starts giving me problems. In the meantime, best controller by far I’ve played with.

    The previous gen was great and had clearly defined audio for all scenarios. The mic was a little lacking when compared to other headsets. Come gen 2 and they take the formula and tweak it just enough to give you the great audio with a great mic. Do keep in mind that it does have a removable foam filter on it in case that bothers you.

    Some Stick Drift out of the box

    This is a solid controller, but I wouldn't say elite. There is a little bit of drift on the right thumbs tick. This can be reduced through the Xbox Accessory App. but from what reviews I have read, this is a fairly normal issue with these controllers. I would say it is worth the Black Friday $100 price point but would recommend going a different way at higher retails.

    A Luxurious Upgrade

    I'm pretty sure this doesn't make me a better gamer but it certainly is a fantastic luxury. I love the back paddles and the variable trigger pulls. I still get tagged in 30 seconds in Halo by 12 year olds who play 8 hours a day but I feel like I'm more competitive and because it's a bit pricey, I'm less likely to fling it across the room in anger . . . at least I hope I'm less likely.

    It’s ok I guess. I got it on sale otherwise I would never have purchased. Good if you need to map a lot of buttons.
