    Solid but weak.

    The controller when it works is fantastic! It may be my model or just a sheer amount of bad luck but these controllers for me have been very poor in the longevity department. As a fan of the Controller I’m disappointed to admit this but for the price and the reliability is just not worth it. Having to use your warranty to keep your controller in working order is quite annoying. As it can take up to a month before Microsoft returns it repaired or replaced with a new one.

    Great product, if you already have an elite controller take the paddles off the back side and switch them over and save a few bucks.

    I owned the Series 1 Gears of War 4 edition and I loved it (until the grips came off). With the Age of Quarantine, I have been gaming a lot more and really missed my Elite. So when i had a chance to buy this, I could not press "Add to Cart" any quicker!!! Yes...it is expensive, but it is worth it.

    I love my new Xbox controller. It works great and I love that you can lock down the trigger buttons so you only have to push them down half way!

    QA Issues but Solid Controller

    Received a defective stick. Microsoft fixed it under repair but not after sending me two broken “replacements”. Quality assurance seems to still be an issue on these elite controllers; however, once you get a solid one it’s a great controller.

    Great controller. I really enjoy the heft of this. I am using it as a PC gaming controller and prefer it over any other controller for PC gaming. There are some good 3rd party mapping software also such as reWASD which can help you get the most out of this controller on the PC.

    A definite improvement over the base controller physical customizations are good as well as the software customizations. Rechargeable battery and dock are nice too. GameStop had it for 139.99 so I price matched
