    Definitely my favorite controller for the Xbox and PC. My only complaint is that it is my second one as the thumb sticks do end up having drift. The coated grips are great, in my opinion, and I like that the paddles underneath have been adjusted in length and are smaller than the original elite controller.

    Honesty debated for months over this purchase. Finally made it and don’t regret it. The quality is clear and the weight and paddles take time to get used to but it’s more than worth it.

    Heavier than a standard controller but nice to hold. Paddles are a good option for certain fast-paced games.

    Left bumper failing after 7 months

    Best controller I’ve owned by far. Worth the price, BUT 7 months in after medium use (~500 hours?) and the left bumper is becoming inconsistent. It registers a press ~75% of the time and I expect it to keep getting worse. I looked it up and this seems to be a common issue unfortunately. I would expect better longevity for the price you pay.
