    I have always been skeptical of the paddles on the back of controllers but they are life changing for my apex and rocket league gaming and cant wait to try more

    Amazing controller. On a pricy side but it is well worth the price for the quality materials you will get and customization.

    Let me start out saying I play Xbox at least 3 hours a day. I am 48 years old and have played on pretty much every system over that timeframe. This controller is the best one I have ever used. However, it isn't perfect. The first one I got right after they came out had an issue where one of the triggers sticking a few months later. I swapped it out using the Geek Squad warranty for a new one. Purchased another warranty, and this one started having movement continue after releasing the right stick, after about a year of constant use. Makes it challenging to play certain games, so I will be swapping it out again and getting another. Buy the Geek Squad coverage. Totally worth it!

    This is the best controller in the world. Love using this for multi-player games such as war zone. You can map the buttons on the bottom to what you want to you can play better. Has a long lasting battery to keep you playing all night. The best controller period.

    Works great when it doesn’t break. Really like the built in battery. Feels good during long play sessions and the finger paddles on the back are programmable and are excellent in games such as PubG. I use the paddles set for consumable items which makes healing and buffing on the fly simple between shootouts. Have to give it a negative review due to the fact I’ve had to warranty replace it once after only a couple months of use and the buttons and thumb sticks went bad faster than a standard controller.

    Ive only had regular and a fusion controller but the feel of the elite has been the best. Tightening of the sticks and just the mapping of the paddles love!

    Controller feels good in your hands. Everything feels solid on this one and the magnetic interchangeable thumb sticks and makes this controller awesome for games like COD or Destiny!

    The controller I got came with slight scratches and some white stains on the rubber grip. Maybe a Microsoft quality control problem and not Best Buy. I've had 3 of these and not cuz I've had to re buy them due to defect. My controller works great but it does have the almost usual Xbox controller problem of the A button not working right unless pressed directly down. Theres an app in the Xbox that lets you customize the controller inputs, profiles, Xbox button led color and even test for stick drift. A warranty is a must for this controller due to the chance of it becoming defective and a $60 2 year plan is better than paying nearly $200 every time you need a new controller. Charge time takes over 4 hours but battery lasts around 30 hours. Stains easily due to the coating used on the shell. So finger oils will eventually leave the controller looking nasty.
