Great controller, but get the warranty
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I can't play on any other controller if it isn't an elite controller, overall build quality is great but i had issues on where it drifted, like every other controller

Solid feel, rechargable, pretentiously expensive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feels like about 100 dollars worth of controller for the low low price of 200 dollars. Honestly it has some neat features, the typical things found on previous iterations of elite and scuf controllers but with added things like 3 quick change profiles, adjustable stick tension and a very long lasting recharablge battery pack that recharges when placed back inside its case. I'll be eager to see if my favorite microsoft controller feature will make a triumphant return on the elite version 2....stick drift, it's been missing so far, but its not outside its factory warranty period...so there's still time.

Great controller!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very solid and premium feel. With the long battery and solid build quality I could not find any faults. Probably hard to justify the price but as far as controllers go I am not sure there is any better out there currently.

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this controller. Surprised how good the battery life is, bought this on release day and have only had to charge it 3 times after using it for a bit more than a month now. There have been some complaints that some of these controllers are a bit defective, so just in case I put warranty on this. The one I bought seems to be fine though, the only slight thing is if I press the A button on the edge it may not register. If I press the A button in the center though it tends to always work. I just recommend testing the controller using some sort of program and see if it works. The controller overall feels of a very nice build quality, I feel it is more comfortable than the xbox one S controller and don't really ever have hand fatigue after playing for a long time.

Worth it!

Kid friendly...Dad approved
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tired of running out of batteries or swapping batteries in the midst of a game, this is the controller for you, or the kids, or that someone you love. On a full charge you can get several hours of gameplay and it proves as a great alternative if you dont want to go for the elite 2. I recommend this purchase

Best paddle Controller on the Market!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.better controller than a scuf. the padding for your hands keeps it from getting sweaty from food grease if you eat and play and its alot more durable and last a lot longer than scuf controllers. scuf controllers break so easy. ive had 3 scufs in 3 years and only 1 xbox elite series 2 controller for 2 years with no issues and the back paddles are easily replaceable for like 10 bucks on amazon

Can’t miss with the Elite
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Once you use this controller, you’ll be convinced it’s worth the price. Compared to the standard controller, it’s a world of difference. Now everyone fights for the Elite. I guess I’ll have to get another!
