    Premium feel. A bit on the heavier side with the build in battery. Love the removeable paddles and interchangeable thumbsticks.

    The feeling alone of the elite controller is worth the money. Then add in the paddles and hairpin adjustments, this controller is on a whole other level.

    Definitely worth the extra money, between the programmable buttons, and different lengths for the analog sticks. Feels expensive too.

    Diego was a great help. I came to get a Mac book. He was very efficient and helped us quickly. His knowledge of what we needed helped do much.

    I bought this as a replacement for my son. I definitely recommend getting the extended warranty. His last controller lasted about 2 weeks past the standard warranty.

    By far the best Xbox controller. They seem to last much longer than the standard Xbox controllers but we have had issues with some drifting after about a year of heavy use.

    Great controller and a must have for hardcore gamers. The battery life is excellent and it is very durable. It is a little heavier than a standard controller.
