    No controller has ever felt better in my hands. A little heavier than the standard xbox controllers. Paddles and trigger locks are legitimate ways to get an edge in online/competitive gaming. Personally, I only use 2 paddles as all 4 feels a bit strange with my hands size. There's also many ways to adjust the response curves of the joysticks offering advanced ways to tailor control. I recommend the warrany for peace of mind knowing that this product has some history of defects, not to mention controllers themselves get beat up over time, thats the way it is!

    The controller is so comfortable in the hands while gaming and suitable with my big hands and it doesn’t slip off which is very good experience

    my all time favorite controller, well worth the money, everything about it is premium, the only bad thing about it is that it will eventually get the stick drift, I've gone through 3 elite controllers but I keep coming back, best to get the warranty, if people are asking why I think its the best controller even tho it has a major flaw, my response is this, a lot of other controllers now have the same issue, the difference is that this controller is just built better overall

    Excellent Controller but not worth cost

    The Elite controller was just as good for sensitivity and control. The handles wore and started to separate from the rubber, so I needed a new controller. I'm not sure what was expected of this new controller, but it does pretty much the same. I do like the idea that it will be compatible with the new Xbox coming in Nov/Dec 2020. The one new feature that is great (so far) is the rechargeable batteries. I would use rechargeables in my old controller, but would have to keep swapping them out. With these, I just use the USB cord which I like a little more.

    Great controller. Has all the bells and whistles. My only problem is that I need to get used to the extra buttons. But it works exactly as intended and has a ton more functionality than I'll probably ever use. But I'm also middle-aged and set in my ways without a ton of gaming experience.

    Love the paddles, a must if you are playing fps, I owned two of the original elite controllers and the quality was better. The new elite core seems to not permit multiple inputs at the same time prioritizing set moves before others which can mess with the gaming experience.

    Response on the controller is great and has some cool features you can use on different types of games your into. It has worked with my PC flawlessly. Bluetooth can be a problem after being hardwired into the PC But that can be fixed by just reconnect to Bluetooth and you should be fine. Havnt experienced any ingame interruptions.

    Microsoft stepped it up with this contoller here are the improvements I really think stand out 1) Grips changed, my last to controllers they came off.. it is different on this one and feels like it will handle the stress of gaming longer 2) Buttons, the buttons feel better, from the lit up Xbox button to menue and ABXYs 3) 4 saved settings for different games, with the light indicator 4) integrated recharble battery and charger in case 5) smaller paddles making them better located for use Still working on cons list but here is the only one I have so far 1) charging cored is a little difficult to feed through the carry case to the charging base.

    These are so hard to come by so I bought one just incase my elite 1 broke again. Decided to open it and use it because I was having issues with a new headset and wanted to see if the controller was the problem. Went ahead and played a game of COD Warzone and haven't put it back in the box. Grips feel great and they fixed the issue i had with the elite 1 when you used the quick setting on bumpers for shooting games you wouldn't get much of a response if you tried to drive a car for example GTA5 or COD warzone. Only complaint is the paddles aren't as large as the elite 1s so i swapped them out and been using ever since.

    Not a really good gamer, so anything that helps is a plus. First time owning elite series. The controller feels very solid and haven't had any problems like the complaints I have seen online (A button sticking, etc). I think it's helped and my only complaint is I'm not quite used to the paddles--they make it hard to get a good grip without accidentally pressing them. That means I'm accidentally switching your primary weapon to melee while under fire in a FPS match.... :/ I don't plan to disable or remove the paddles because I want to get used to using them. I'm ditching my 2015-era Xbox One for the XBox One-X so let's see how this performs with the new rig!

    It's great when it works... but for how long?

    It's easily the best controller on the market... when it works. It worked perfectly for about a year and a half then suddenly I developed severe right stick drift. The Microsoft warranty had expired by about 2 weeks, but they were gracious enough to except it anyways. But it was a hassle getting a quality controller back. They admitted that the drift was so bad it couldn't be replaced, so they sent me a refurbished one (uh oh). On this replacement the "A" button didn't function properly, so it went back again. On the next one, its "A" button also didnt work, so away it went. 3rd time is a charm, right? WRONG. This one had a faulty bluetooth transmitter so I couldn't connect it at all. At this point I finally talked Microsoft into a full refund, which they did. I'm giving it 3 stars because it is hands down the best controller on the market when it works properly, but don't be surprised when it goes it.

    Playing the Xbox with this controller is like riding in a Cadillac on a sunny day. The device is the steering wheel you need to get your game on. It’s customizable and responsive to touch. The controler truly “puts you in the game” and allows you to be in full contol.
