    Love this controller. Makes a huge difference from a regular xbox controller. I also love that it comes with built-in paddles.

    Please keep in mind that this controller does not come with the charger and case like the black $180 one does! It also does not come with the extra thumbsticks!

    Yes, the price point of this controller is quite steep at first glance. But if you even know what an elite controller is/capable of doing, you realize its much cheaper than a custom Scuf with the same capabilities. I use mine for FPS games and couldn't be happier. Had Elite V1 and bought this, happy with both!

    Best solid controller. Very well made and it’s really good product. The paddles are not plastic but solid some sort of metal. The controller is little heavier side but feels good to hold. It feels you paid for a good product and not just plastic.

    My new favorite xbox controller. I have been wanting to try this controller for a long time and when I started getting into Souls games, it tipped me over the edge. It's been a wonderful controller for ease of use with soul's games.

    My son so happy with this purchase as it is my second one as I washed the first one in bed sheets. A big expense that was my fault.

    QA Issues but Solid Controller

    Received a defective stick. Microsoft fixed it under repair but not after sending me two broken “replacements”. Quality assurance seems to still be an issue on these elite controllers; however, once you get a solid one it’s a great controller.

    I've had issues ever since I purchased. Curse seems to want to slowly drift across the screen. Bluetooth constantly disconnects so the only way I can use it is keeping it plugged in. Pretty much a waste

    Huge upgrade from the standard controller. Feels substantial. Comes with extra sets. Y button seems to be a little particular but that is apparently a common complaint. Expensive, but xbox packaging and accessories make it feel worth the money

    Controller is very nice and well made. You can program it to do whatever you want. It’s solid and a nice weight. My favorite feature is that it charges when you put it back in the case, no plugging it in. I use this controller exclusively now.

    Good quality of materials, it looks aesthetically better than the previous series, I don't know what difference it has inside if it is true that they made improvements to the errors of the previous version.
