    Purchased an open box that was supposed to be in excellent condition. The look of the device looked well used and the right bumper was not responsive to anything other than a hard press. Had to return it to being unusable.

    I originally had the first elite controller and loved it. They made everything even better with trigger stops, grip on the back, and adjustable thumbsticks.

    Although this item was not delivered until 12/26/2020. I must say no other complaints. The grips are awesome and no battery purchase is a plus.
