Quality of life for FPS
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've really been enjoying this controller. The rechargeable battery was something I'm glad this came with. I like the old 360 thumb sticks which this comes with an assortment of different ones. The D-pad pictured in the advertisement is nice for fighting games but you can switch that out too. The only real issue I've had is with the paddles on the bottom. You'll need to train your muscle memory to accept them. Overall, they are the better way to play. Do yourself a favor and disable the x y a b buttons in the menus on the XBox/PC. The controller is heavy compared to the standard ones. It's solid and the grip is awesome. You'll need to relinquish that death grip most people play with in order to get accustomed to the paddles. Another thing is that the paddles are great for reassigning buttons like the Thumbstick - To - Run assignment most Call of Duty games have. Sea of Thieves does this. Again it's relearning how to walk, run, and jump. When you finally get it, your K/D ratio will increase dramatically, ie you are no longer taking your thumbs off the movement sticks to hit buttons. Some of the more advanced features are not explained like cording several buttons together for special commands.

The Good, The Bad, and the Drifty.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let's break this down into a few categories. Build- The build, fit and finish of this controller are top-notch. Each button feels refined, deliberate, and solid. From the bottom triggers to the adjustable shoulder triggers, they are built with purpose and intent. Feel/ Comfort- The controller is ever so slightly smaller than the OG controllers of the X|S line but that's perfectly fine. The grip is comfortable with forgiveness and provides the right amount of grip and texture. Battery- With an integrated battery that should last a day's worth of play, it's simple enough to dock the controller to charge it for the next session. Feedback/Vibration- This is where it gets a bit silly. The primary grip motors are intense and solid, however, the shoulder ones sound like they are loose and weak. Could ba a design, but, for a controller of this caliber I would expect otherwise. The BAD- Ok, so let's get to the elephant in the room. Stick Drift. Is it still a thing, and in short, yes. It took me, 4 controllers, to fine on with thumbsticks thight enough and without slop. While tightening the tension does help, it should be used as a primary source to undo shotty sticks. Why is this worth it! First, let's talk about customization. I know while many of us who play would say "I don't really care about the customization" Trust me, you will once you get tuning and customizing. From the trigger that can easily be removed and mappable, to the sensitivity and responsiveness of the thumbsticks. Moreover, the sensitivity adjustment of the triggers are mechanical as well to shorten the throw. Would I recommend this controller---With its minor shortcomings, still a SOLID YES if you have the coin to toss around.

Solid controller!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent controller compared to the one that comes with the XBOX. I’m not a hardcore gamer and probably won’t use it to its full capabilities, but the way it feels in your hand due to the weight and the smoothness of the controls; makes it a great purchase.

Awesome Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second Xbox Ellite. Worth every penny. I would recommend getting the full kit with the charging dock, paddles, and case if you don't already have them though. This only come with the controller, one set of thumb sticks, and a charging cable.
