    I love everything about it but the price. Its been about a month and quality/build seems excellent. I really enjoy the controller but i still struggle with how much the cost was. I dont regret the purchase but I dont know if i can recommend someone else to spend the same for it.

    This is really an elite controller. Very well built and is easy to use. This is cheaper than a custom controller and has every feature that a custom one has. XBox did an excellent job with this.

    It works great, but a little over 2 months and it keeps shutting on and off. I think its the C port cable. It keeps saying reconnect controller.

    I really wanted to like this controller but the design quality just hasn't been good as has all xbox controllers that has come out from the launch of Xbox One X/S to the current Series X/S. As a long time xbox user, you could tell right away the quality of controllers have diminished as soon as you hold one in your hand. I was really hoping the Elite Series would be different and I could justify paying the price tag. Unfortunately, I experienced similar problems as other reviews had stated not once but both times. On the original controller I purchased, the right trigger and Y button were unresponsive exactly %50 of the time. I brought it in and exchanged it for a new one. The second one seemed to be fine at first aside from the right bumper being unresponsive sometimes and the A button sticking every so often but after a month I started experiencing wireless connection issues. The middle xbox light on the controller would dim a little bit and disconnects from the xbox. Even though the controller is still powered on, the controller is completely unresponsive until the middle light is fully lit, which takes about 15-25 seconds each time. It only happened sporadically at first but now it'll keep happening unless I have the controller plugged in. Of course now it's past the return date and Microsoft stores are now non-existent so I can't go anywhere to exchange it again. I could go through the online warranty process but would likely receive another used/refurbished item in return. But at this point I don't know if I would even want another one.

    Love the adjustable triggers the most on this controller, super easy to clean and has definitely made an improvement in my gaming. Less reaction time on trigger engagement makes every second count, been great controller so far with no complaints

    The body and grips are an improvement over the v1 Elite controllers, but there’s already issues with the RB/LB buttons wearing out and becoming non-responsive like they did with the v1. For the cost, Microsoft really needs to address that. These shouldn’t wear out in 9-12 months for this price. I’ve already had to replace mine once.
