    I had the original elite and that controller was my absolute favorite of all time so hopefully this one serves me just as well. The back paddles are by far the best ergonomically and the added charging dock is a nice addition over the original as well as the added trigger step and new color scheme. I literally can't go back to regular controllers anymore.

    I was satisfied overall but one of the buttons(left up) started to not working after less than a year! and I'm not a "gamer" which means I might used this controller for like 10-15 hours each week. Fortunately I had protection plan on it and I could return it but now this item is sold out and I can't order a new one!
