    My only complaint is that it's heavier than standard controllers but it's understandable. Honestly I don't think I can go back to regular controllers.

    It’s a great controller. But I had to buy the wireless dongle because the blue tooth constantly cuts out. Not really acceptable at this price point. With the dongle, it works great. Solid construction, it really has some weight to it.

    This controller feels solid in the hand. the moment you pick it up, you know it means business, after using the elite controllers for about two years now I could never go back to a normal controller.

    Great controller, unfortunately it’s extremely overpriced for what it is. I honestly don’t see enough reasons to spend $179.99+ tax on this over a regular controller. The extra buttons and attachments feel more like a personal preference over a necessity. There are far cheaper options out there for a similar experience. Also, it doesn’t seem to last any longer than a regular Xbox controller. In addition, the warranty is over $60, the cost of a standard Xbox controller.

    Great controller lives up to the hype. If you're looking to replace or upgrade and you can afford it I would say go for it.

    Some of the buttons feel kind of... mushy. I don't love that, but the paddles, customization, and feel of this controller is second to none.
