Many appreciate the customization options and the controller's overall feel and weight.

Can’t recommend sadly
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s hard to recommend this controller especially at this price. After about six months it developed significant stick drift, just like it’s predecessor. Since then, Microsoft has replaced it twice for me, which I’m grateful for since it was $200, but that window is now closed and when it inevitably starts drifting again I’ll be out of luck. If you can get it on sale and you don’t mind repairing it yourself, maybe it’s worth buying, but if stick drift is a deal breaker for you just walk away.

Elite
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the best controller I’ve used for the Xbox so far. It is very responsive and the customization options for the D-pad and thumb sticks are needed for shooters.

Okay, but needs improvements
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller overall and has less issues than my other Elite controller, but I’m still going to have to give a 3 star due to the fact that this controller also has some buttons that don’t work all the time and occasionally disconnects from the Xbox for no reason…

A pro gamers tool of choice.
