Good for sweaties
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's comfortable. I don't use the paddles it's hard as I have long fingers. I really liked how you can tighten the joysticks. Only thing I really hate about this controller is the triggers. They are a weird feeling plastic and when they have sweat on them its slippery

Best Xbox Controller.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller just wish they were a little more durable. Probably the best all around premium controller all things considered. Hall effect thumbsticks would make it essentially perfect.

Great controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very solid controller with a nice weight to it. Adjustable tension in the thumbsticks is great and the charging dock inside the case was a really nice surprise. My only negatives are the lack of extra paddles being included and there not being a medium height thumbstick, the tall thumbstick is just a bit to tall for my liking.

Worth the money twice.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I probably used my elite 1 everyday 3-4 hours. 2+ years without a problem. So far 1 month in, it feels like the 2 is the same type of quality controller with some better features. Like thumb stick tension control and a built in battery that with my daily use last well over a week. So far so good worth the money if I go 2-3 years again.

Elite controller is great if you can afford it
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is awesome and I don’t even take advantage of half of the features it provides. It is very expensive though so I’m still waiting to see how well it holds up and for how long.

Buy if you’re a serious gamer!!!

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this controller to play Elden Ring on PC thinking it would be the better choice on a Windows PC. The weight and feel of the controller was top notch, the ability to remap a lot of the buttons and reassign buttons to the paddles underneath was great feature....if the controller worked. I exchanged the first one due to the A button being unresponsive, hoping it was a one-off. After trying the new one, it seemed fine until a few days later then the A and Y keys stopped being responsive. So now I'll give up and go back to the PS controller (which I subsequently tried in ER and it was night-and-day difference). Overall, really disappointed in the quality for the astronomical price for the controller. Would have been great if the buttons all held up.

Very nice aesthetic!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ended up returning due to inability to find paddles locally however, this was a very nice controller. If the opportunity arises, I'll grab one again and throw some paddles on it.

Amazing Controller.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quality is beyond what I had expected. This thing thinks of everything and things that I didn't now I wanted. I think the price is worth it, but I bet they go on sale from time to time! I am using it exclusively with my PC, and It has been my favorite purchase as of recent!

Best controller option for Xbox and PC
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are a pro gamer or consider yourself to be great at the gaming on PC or Xbox you owe yourself the extra buttons and customizations and options that this controller can open. I have bought this controller three times two on sale and one full price.
