    I think this control made back paddles mainstream and for that it has its place in history. But now there are better more reliable options on the market. If you don't need the back paddles the regular Xbox controller actually has lower (better) input latency than this controller. 7ms vs 14ms, defiantly makes a difference when playing anything online competitively. I would only buy this control for its comfort in hand factor and for playing single player games now days. Also lots and lots of QC issue with button actuation.

    Worked great at first but about 6 months into my replacement in started doing the same thing. LB doesnt always register, now its RB and one of the back buttons. I got the geek squad warranty and already used it and the replacement did the exact same thing.

    Great upgrade from a regular controller. The trigger selection is a game changer. And the interchangeable parts is a a big plus too. I’ve had the controller for almost a year and so far so good!

    Excellent controller. I bought the first generation when it came out and a Geek Squad warranty (which was, and still is with any gaming peripheral, a necessity) and had to replace it multiple times. This controller, however, they improved DRASTICALLY on the quality. Same great features as the first generation, just updated and perfected this time around.

    Feels sturdy and the weight is nice. I’ve not experienced any drift or button issues I did have a launch model that was starting to develop bumper issues but that was after literally thousands of hours of use and only one bumper. I like it so I got another one.

    Not much difference between the first gen controller but has some very good upgrades, stick tension increase and decrease as well as better grips that doesn't peel off but never had this issue on my original 1st gen. This controller seems to have a better latency as well as a more aggressive trigger stops. Love this controller and feel this is the best on the market as of right now.

    This is simply the best controller out there, period. I upgraded from the previous Elite controller and its worth the price to upgrade. My favorite feature is the adjustable triggers. For some games you want a shorter, quicker trigger and you can easily change it on the fly with the preset stops. The previous model required you to go and map start and stop points, now its automatic.

    This is the second one of these I have purchased. My one son liked it so much that I purchased another for my other son. It's a bit pricy, however it seems that all remotes are going up in price. If you are going to spend the money and are looking for bang for your buck, this seems to be a great choice according to my son's who gain all the time.

    I game everyday for a long time and the controller has always gave me the best performance! I was really iffy about buying this one because the series 1 did not last and was messing up all the time. I got this with the 2 year protection and was happy with the feel and durability of the controller. recommend the protection because you never know when these things can go bad!

    Still not sure about the quality and longevity.

    Overall feel, battery life and adjustable triggers are good and the controller feels good in hand. The only issue is the presence of some stick drift already after returning one with stick drift within just a couple weeks. One trigger is already emitting an occasional squeak that sounds like a spring ready to pop.

    It has a nice weight to it, i love that it gas a built in charging. I just wish it came with the other accessories as it is missing stuff that you need to order seperately.

    I couldn't ask for a better gaming experience. Programmable buttons to switch quickly between fps and racing games, programmable triggers to provide shorter travel/response distance.
