    Son LOVES this controller. This one has weight behind it with metal used throughout. He loves have you can actually customize the controller changing button function and the flippers.

    It's a solid piece of hardware with good grip and functionality. Unfortunately you can't do macros in programming mode. The A button was a bit sticky at first but after a few weeks of wear it well broken in.

    This controller is amazing. A bit pricey. Setting LT and RT to hair trigger is great for FPS games. You can tell how much faster your shots are because of the hair trigger. Having the extra for paddle buttons also makes it easier in some games.

    Love that it has built in battery. You can adjust the paddles and triggers. And its all black. You can also adjust the brightness of the xbox symbol on the controller.

    Excellent controller. I purchased the Razer Wolverine to compare and the Elite feels much better. Paddle placement was easier for me to use. Greatly improved my game play

    This is by far the best control I’ve ever owned.! A lot of people have negative reviews or mixed reviews about this so far I haven’t had any problems but that’s why I bought the warranty. But by far it’s the best I’ve ever had!

    I was very disappointed with this product after loving my original Elite controllers. It got stick drift within the first few months of owning it. Microsoft did repair it, but it took almost 6 months to receive back. Now the B button is jamming. I highly recommend getting the protection plan.

    My son's series 1 controller stopped working a couple of months ago. We've been waiting for the series 2 to be released. My son seems to like the new one, I didn't see much difference other than the higher price.
