Do it. Don't think just do it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Incredible controller. On the small size, but before long you will not even notice it. It feels great in your hand, and always works perfectly. Easily the best controller I have ever owned. Is it a lot of money? Yes, but it is worth spending the extra cash on it

Excellent!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for myself as a bit of a splurge. After getting some paddles for it, I can’t go back to a normal controller - it’s that good. This is truly one of those moments where better hardware makes you a better gamer (I mostly play shooters and my stats went up a significant amount after getting this). The grips on it (the black part) are a nice rubber textured bit that is not at all uncomfortable. You may get sweaty hands after a while, but that happens whether you play on any controller or a mouse and keyboard. Stick tension I havent really messed with (i like the sticks loose). Keep in mind too that the sticks are very sensitive out of the box, so maybe adjust that in the accessories software on your xbox. Great product, love it tons.

Buy this and don't look back
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feels polished, well put together and durable. Compared to the cheap Amazon controllers, the Xbox Elite blows them all out of the water. Is it worth 3 or 4 times more than that no-brand controller? Absolutely. You won't know what you're missing until you've tried this. Find a demo and you'll know exactly what I mean as soon as you pick it up.

Well Made - See if it Stands the Test of Time
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m actually rather impressed with the build quality of this controller. I bought it because I keep having a problem with my triggers getting stuck on all my other controllers, and so far I haven’t had any problems. We’ll see if it keeps up, but so far it’s been great! Only reason it’s 4/5 is the price. Quite expensive unless you buy open box like I did.

Definitely the best with some issues
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only gave it 4 Stars because this is my 3rd one. It's definitely the best controller out there. But always seems to break a year or 2 down the line. I literally use it and set it down. Never throw or hit it. It's either the directional pad sticks, right bumper or stick drift. Frustrating because it's not cheap. Get the extended warranty.

Expensive, but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been hankering to get one if these for months, and because of that I was a bit wary going in. You never know if a purchase is going to live up to the hype you build for it. I'm happy to say that to me at least, this does. When you first pick it up, you don't really notice much besides the weight (which is good and heavy; I can't stand lite cheap feeling controllers), but after a few hours in I started noticing subtle details. The sticks are suuuuuper smooth, and every button has a good solid click. The triggers are weighty and responsive, however the trigger stops detract slightly. I usually have them at the shortest pull when playing rpgs or shooters, and it almost feels like I'm going to break the stops. Other than that one detail, I haven't found anything about this controller I don't like. Very happy with my purchase.

Xbox serious 2
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this remote for my 2 boys because they’re hardcore gamers and they love their remotes! Also get the 2 year protection plan because the remotes fragile because sometimes the buttons stick, but no worries it’s normal! Trust me get the plan you will use it and when they check it at Best Buy they will give you a brand new one on the spot!

Good value

Best xbox controller yet.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have two of these and I think they are the best controllers ever. The heavier weight feels great and the joysticks are very smooth. I have the total tech on them and if they ever have a problem I just swap it out for another. Highly recommend
