    Wish there were at least 2 paddles to come in the box. Otherwise, it's a great controller with removeable parts if you already own extra parts from an Elite Series 2 controller

    Both left and right buttons wear out WAY too fast. Absolute must to get the 2 year warranty. Other than that, great controller.

    Don’t expect this controller to make you the best player but it does give you the tools to get better. The build quality is what really sets this apart from the regular controller. Plenty of customizations options, battery life/charging stand eliminates the struggles of finding a battery pack with a charge, the controller looks great. Overall great upgrade

    Love the thumbsticks and the paddles

    I really like this controller. It feels very premium, and it has helped me with my gameplay due to the paddles. They were a little tough to get used to at first since you have to grip the controller slightly less firm, but once you get used to it, it feels very natural. The thumbsticks are also very smooth and precise.

    This is an incredibly well done accessory. It's intuitive, well thought out, and eminently premium. At $179, it costs a pretty penny, but even then it includes built in charging dock that's integrated into a travel case, so there's even more value then a stock controller.

    This is the best controller I have ever used. It feels great in the hand. The life battery is amazing. The interchangeable parts make this controller very customizable to your liking. Just to note, I have not had any drifting or button pressing issues. I may have lucked out but beware that those are things people have complained about.

    Truly the greatest controller ever designed. Weighs 2 to 3 times more than the other controller but when it comes to things I handle yhey have to survive usage. This controller is durable, effective, has trigger locks and multiple button presses

    Son loves it . It has new features that he likes. Not crazy about the price, but it is what it is. This was a Christmas present. People have said to watch the flippers on this remote because they break. So we will see how long they last.

    The control is the best you can buy but if you do play a lot it will only last just under a year before control drifts and everything

    Costly but worth every penny. I had purchased the original version and after about a year and a half. The left bumper broke. If I had a regular controller and used it daily I would be lucky if it would last half the time. It feels better and the new version even comes with a convenient rechargable battery pack that you can charge while it is in the storage case.

    Its a good controller. I've had an elite series 1 in the past that worked well for 2 years till the grips fell off then an elite 2 controller that had issues after a year with the trigger but replacements were easy and this is by far the best controller out there

    Really love not having to replace/recharge batteries. Love the feel. Can't get use to the paddles, had to remove them. Haven't gotten around to tweaking the settings nor controls. Don't really know if it was worth the $180.00, but it is better than the standard controller.
