    As far as the use of this controller after 5 years of using the elite controllers I can't even go back to using a regular controller. I love this controller. On the other hand I've replaced my controller 3 times due to the left or right bumper not working after a period of time. My advice make sure to pay for the best buy coverage and replace it as needed.

    Everything about this new elite is a huge improvement. The grips are better designed, the buttons are more tactile, the paddles feel more natural. All around best controller on the market.

    Not a major gamer, but like the ability to use paddles and adjust controller. There's not a lot of documentation on what each setting does until you search internet or install Xbox app.
