    Love the controller, make sure you get the extended warranty. Eric drift and connectivity issues occur after the first year. This is now my fifth controller.

    If you can afford it, get it! Amazing! Customizable! Loving it! Great package. Case even has magnetic charger within it. Feels perfect. Paddles take some time to get a feel for but then fit in flawlessly.

    So far so good. Ive mixed reviews about this item but decide to take the plunge (and getting the warranty just in case). It's been working great to far. It doesn't have the same issue that the OEM rechargable battery has. I haven't ran out of juice on this controller even after multiple days of usage with charging it. The build feels nice. I like a heavier controller, and the triggers and definitely nice to have. Is it life changing? No. Is it a gimmick? Also no. It's just a fancier controller with a. Few added features which are nice to have. Hopefully MSFT has had the time to fix the kinks.

    I love this controller. I’ve owned the previous generation elite controller and this is a great upgrade. The paddles are smaller which helps me from accidentally pressing them all the time. The controller feels better overall.

    I have bought these controllers mutiple times and i will say there is a bitter sweet relationship with them. They allow for an overall better gaming performance for sure but much like all other controllers stick drift is a major issue after awhile, and if you can fix it then it can last for a few years, but eventually the wear starts to become apparent like with all other things.

    Seems like they develope stick drift after a year of use. If you get one treat it really well and make sure you get a warrenty. Best buy will charge a $30 fee when you replace them even if you are total tech customer so beware. I really like the controller besides the issues.

    Having owned the 1st elite series controller I didn’t think this one would be that much better, but I was wrong. This controller improves almost every aspect of the Series 1. The wrap around grips are excellent. My series 1 grips started to fall off and I don’t see that being a problem on this one. I love that it’s slightly smaller than the 1st. Because of that I can actually use all 4 back paddles comfortably. The thumbsticks and triggers feel great. The controller now has a rechargeable battery built in and can be charged by placing it on the charger that’s in it’s case. Overall a great improvement and a fantastic controller. If you play call of duty, Fortnite, etc you need this controller.
