    Loved the look and feel of the controller, having owned an originally elite. ‘A’ button stuck fresh out of the box, had to return it, were our of stock, will probably buy again next time I wonder into store, elites are worth the money, just need to find another

    Great new elite colorway. Doesnt come with charging case or paddles but I found these useless on my first elite. I usually just charge it with the cord and buy colored paddles off of amazaon anyways (20$ for colored paddles)

    Bought this as a replacement for my old Elite that went out. Haven't had any troubles out of it outside of a little stick drift, but that's expected.

    Nothing different from the Elite gen 2, however if you are looking for a different color go for it, just keep in mind this is the cheap version it does not come with the peddals, sold separately.

    The paddles are great for customizing from game to game, having three different presets you can setip any way youd like its awesome. If you’re looking for that step up in gaming, this is for you.

    Can't say enough about this controller, it's just awesome! I'm normally a PS guy, however bought a Series X and this controller is the only controller someone should use. It changed the way I game 100%. If you're concerned about the price, don't be it is worth it.

    This is a great alternate purchase over the elite controller. Same functionality as the elite , minus the paddles. To be honest , i barely use the back paddles and charges just the same as any other xbox controller.

    Came in excellent condition. Not a single blemish and the controller itself performs amazingly. Got some heft and you really appreciate the fine tuning freedom.
