    Is you’re a gamer gamer this is for you. But if you’re a casual player then don’t even bother. Great controller for someone looking to do crazy gaming.

    My grandson dropped it the first day, and buttons fell off -- but the surprise was when the buttons easily reattached magnetically.

    This controller should have been shipped standard with the Xbox Series X. It makes the whole system feel more quality. Good adjustments on the triggers and sticks.

    I had the previous elite controller, and very much like the face you can increase or decrease the resistance of the thumb sticks. I also love the rechargeable battery and the ability to remove the charging base or leave it in the case (which has a pass thru port) and charge it in there while its protected.

    A definite improvement over the base controller physical customizations are good as well as the software customizations. Rechargeable battery and dock are nice too. GameStop had it for 139.99 so I price matched

    This is a super great controller out of the many I have bought. Me and my boyfriend love this controller and the fact that you can match it to your own way that you like to have a controller is the coolest thing ever. I would definitely recommend buying this controller . It is definitely worth the money.
