    I like the Elite Controller, but the right bumper is damaged and has a lot of friction and Best Buy couldn’t fix it. Except that it’s a dope controller

    The paddles on the controller make it easier and faster to initate moves and action of the game. The controller is more comfortable to use and has grips that keep my hands from sweating.

    Nice upgrade from the first series elite controller. Only complaint is the rubber on the side feels a little too slick.

    I’m still using it and it feels like it’s still new. I pretty much game most of the day. I like the custom profiles, so I can have it set for whatever game I’m playing.

    If you want full control of fps shooters, you MUST HAVE THIS CONTROLLER. It’s incredible. The battery life and trigger locks with smaller paddles have me steamrolling in pvp.
