    I got 3 different controllers and all of them had a problem where the A button wouldn’t work if you pressed it a certain way. My brother had one where the A button would get stuck in the down position. The updated paddles are better than the old version. I think it’s the best gaming controller out there when it’s working properly.

    Controller is solid and overall the best xbox controller out right now. I only use two back buttons. If you’re looking for 4 back buttons, I’d suggest the Scuf Instinct Pro. Would also suggest getting the 2 year warranty from Best Buy because controllers are prone to having sticky buttons and stick drift over time.

    It's an Elite Controller, but is the core

    Better build quality than the standard controller; heavier with more quality materials. Easy to sync with your Xbox or connect to a PC. Note that it's the Core controller so you need to already have/buy separately the accessories for the back buttons (I didn't realize that but had them on hand from a broken controller before).

    This is my 3rd Elite series 2 controller. The first two had issues with the bumpers (one right after the one year warranty, the second one almost at 6months). The controller itself offers great utility but for whatever reason the bumpers fail to stand the test of time.

    This should have been a day 1 purchase, even before any games had been installed on the Xbox series x. It feels infinitely better than the lame controller that comes packaged with the console.

    Completely love the feel of this controller. Easy to hold. Very heavy compared to others. Works great for cross platform with the eight bit duo. If you have a program properly to be recognized as the different series, Xbox controller works well for Sniper games.
