    Definitely packaged awesome! The controller itself is heavier than standard ones which is good. Controller has so many options you can change that it’s slightly overwhelming but once you understand everything it’s one of the best! Love mine!

    Always a great deal with the open box items. Have used this same buy for my last two controllers, easily a year minimum of heavy use, sometimes 2 years

    I had 2 of the regular xbox wireless controllers... they served their time & purpose. BUT when you open the packaging up and see/feel this bad boy....oh my what an upgrade. The case/charging station setup is pure genius. Also you Can remove the charging base from the case.... But why? The cable goes in through the to of the closed case and your good....chargin

    I really like this controller because they fell nice in your hand but the quality is questionable. I bought an open box and everything worked great except for one button that you needed to press hard to register anything. Make sure you test all the buttons if you buy this. Button can be remapped to their rear buttons if you want to do that.

    My teenager goes through lots of controllers, we get the insurance so its not really an issue. Summer break just started, so far this controller holds up for some massive brutal game sessions as i can hear him throughout the house but haven't seen him in days!

    Love the customization options and this controller will elevate your game to keep your thumbs on the sticks. The problem is stick dift will hit within a year and continue to get worse. The bumpers will also mess up and become unresponsive. This happen on my original elite and i went back with a core for cheaper and it was great Nov 2023 until Dec 2025.

    The only thing stopping me giving this a 5/5 is Microsofts poor QC on these controllers. The bumpers or buttons will end up always going out on you. Other than that they're excellent controllers

    The aesthetics of the controller drew me in along with the built in rechargeable battery. Also have the ability to remove the toggles for longer ones is great. The d-bad also can be swapped out for a traditional d pad style button. The rear paddles make it handy when playing COD so you can slide cancel, jump, and move flawlessly throughout the game.
