Amazing controller brought low by flaw
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice feeling controller. Feels very sturdy. Comes with a charging dock and the ability to switch between Bluetooth for PC and then back to Xbox. Only gets 2 stars as the left bumper stopped working within about a week of purchase. Seems to be a common problem with this controller.

Great build quality - "A" button sucks - DONOT BUY
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would give this controller 5 stars because when it works, it's phenomenal. It feels great, the sticks are solid, the quality of the materials is fantastic. HOWEVER, I swapped mine out three times because the "A" button doesn't register half the time. You have to press it a very precise way, directly center, for it to register, otherwise, nada. Playing games where you quickly need to jump like The Messenger are impossible to play on this. I don't know what the deal is but I've seen this problem with the "A" button all over the internet. I cannot recommend this as something THIS expensive should not have such a widespread and fundamental problem.

Nice for the price
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to take the remote back the 1 st time due to a bad battery pack and wouldn’t hold a charge. But the second remote has been perfect. Color is cool compared to the all black elite controller. Would definitely recommend. is a bit heavy but no need to replace batteries. And the sticks can be replaced with shorter or taller sticks.

The Best Got Better
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After owning and using the original model quite a bit the update to the original Elite model is outstanding. Even down to the quality of the home button with the more tactile click shows the patience and enhancements in design.

Great gaming controller
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My husband is hard on controllers. This controller lasts for a long time! It’s the 2nd one we have bought but the first one lasted 3 years and a normal controller that comes with the Xbox lasts him about 6-8 months. He loves the buttons and being able to personalize it to what he wants
