I would recommend this to a friend Overpriced with too many problems
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've gone through two of these controllers now with an additional 4 Series 1 Elite Controllers. Luckily I got the Geek Squad protection because I've used it on every single one of them within a year of getting the controller. My first series 2 had problems within a couple months with the A button not registering when pushed. So I exchanged it for a new one and right out of the box the new one has the same problem but even more severe. This is unacceptable for a controller that costs $180. Across both series of these the Elite Controllers I've now had a total of six and not a single one has lasted more than 6-8 months. I would absolutely not recommend wasting your money on this controller.

||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Came with bent input port or keyboard/headset volume up/down adapter, buttons on the bottom fell off. This review/purchase was also from a grown man that cares for his belongings, not a child who might be less careful with their property.
