    It's an amazing controller, but it is expensive.

    I game primarily on my pc, but I also primarily use a controller. I know, blasphemous. But for me using a controller is the most comfortable gaming experience. This is the king of controllers. Peak controller. No comparison. It's plug in (or wirelessly connect) and play. 99% of games support it. There really hasn't been a single flaw that I've run into. It feels fantastic and the build quality is something you'd expect a $180 controller to have. Obviously if you have $180 to spend on a controller, there really isn't too much competition, and rightfully so, as this thing has reached peak controller. I recommend it, but really only if you want the best of what controllers have to offer, and can afford it.

    After finally acquiring a Series X, I was content to use the standard Xbox wireless controllers. I even invested in a PowerA Fusion controller that was on clearance for less than $50. But when this came available for $139 during the 15 days of Gaming promotion I felt compelled to give it a try. I can't recall a better deal being made. Even at full MSRP it is a great value. The design, the weight and feel. The quality of materials used plus the functionality and countless configurations are unmatched. Why buy anything but the best? I think it is a highly durable product that will give you the greatest satisfaction. I have zero regrets.

    Great controller all around. Only complaint is if you have bigger hands it does feel a bit small when trying to scrunch your fingers and bit the paddles other than that. Excellent build quality

    I purchased this because the price was really good with the "member price". Now I do not care about color, but the red was cheaper than the white or blue, so that is what I purchased. I already had a Elite Series 2 controller that has some pretty severe stick drift in the right thumbstick, so I was able to get this and just use all of the accessories from that controller with it.

    The price is decent with this controller but when you look at other competitor controllers with paddles like Scuf which go for (200+) the price is fair. Its a huge improvement from the first elite controller. Better thumb stick options now with higher tension and Xbox 360 size thumb sticks. Battery life on this controller is amazing I can play for days without charging. Paddles on the back take more force to engage which feels a lot better while using. Only downside and this is nitpicking is that the tension needs to be a little higher on the 3rd setting to replicate the perfect 360 controller. Also the 360 thumb sticks don't have enough grip. But I highly recommend also buy the 2 year warranty. So that if you receive wear and tear or any other issues you can replace it.

    Overall a great controller plus the bundle with the extra paddles and charging dock/carrying case. Well worth the price compared to just the core controller. I use mine on pc which was a simple bluetooth connection, plus programmable outputs.

    This controller, albeit really expensive is SOOOO nice. I had the original elite controller and it held up ok in retrospect, had it for a few years but the rubber grips on the side were starting to peel. With this version it looks like Microsoft learned from their mistakes and made a 2 piece handle that can be easily replaced. The controller feels lighters and I love the rechargeable battery the tactile feel of the grip handles. Honestly I could go on and on about this controller, but if you're considering buying it its because you game alot and you want the best. This controller is hands down the best and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.

    I got this as an open box item. It didnt have the box for it but I understand that. Did come with everything else which was nice. Controller is nice. The top bumpers are a little stiff but i figure the more I use it the looser they will get. Over all nice controller. A little heavy too. I would recommend it though. Def helps with movement in fps games.
