    Best controller I've ever bought

    Everything about this controller is quality. It feels INCREDIBLE. This is the best controller I have ever bought, to date. The buttons, triggers, and sticks feel very well made and the customization options are excellent. It's expensive but if you care about quality, this is THE controller to get for Xbox and mobile/computer gaming.

    These controllers are amazing! They feel great, they are durable, they are super easy to get set up if you know what you’re doing. Gives you a HUGE advantage over anyone using a regular controller. In my opinion the back buttons are placed in better positions than SCUFF controllers.

    I love this controller. I've bought it a couple of times over. I only wish it didn't have plastic analog insides.

    I absolutely love the elite controllers. My first one lasted 8 years and i needed to replace it. The new elite is still the great quality with new features. I use it for xbox as well as my pc.

    Really like the customization with both the back paddles and standard buttons. Back bumpers aren't as solid as the PS equivalent, but it's still a hefty controller with quality build and button/vibration feedback.

    Love the controller, performs the way it should and honestly have no issues with it at all, but dont drop it because it will cause stick drift found that out from a previously bought core

    Really nice to use, even without the additional back paddles. Only real flaw is there isn't a dedicated capture button. Would recommend if you can get it $30+ off.

    A Hefty Controller

    While I don't really think it's worth the full price, I got it on sale and used certificates to lower its cost even further, it's definitely an awesome controller. It's a solid, good-weighted controller. The grip texture around the entire grips is great. It just feels really good in your hands. Being able to tighten the tension on the control sticks, swapping out the sticks or the D-Pad for the other ones, all super easy to do. My one complaint is the lack of the share button the newer Series X/S controllers have. Since I got this after having one of those controllers, I definitely notice it missing. If they would patch an update to be able to remap the "preset switch" button to be the share button, this would be the perfect controller in my opinion, but for those who don't use the share button that often it's already at that perfect level.

    I had the first elite controller and it finally went out after 5+ years. This is perfect as I already had the paddles so this was a great value. Love this controller and would recommend to anyone.

    Extremely happy with this controller, gave 4 stars instead of 5 simply because of how different the paddles were from the first elite controller. It took some time to get used to after using the original elite controller for years. Definitely worth the upgrade to the series 2.

    Sturdy construction, quality feel. A lot more durable, IF you get one that was assembled well. I’ve had friends who bought brand new ones that had shoulder button issues in the first month.
