    So I am reviewing this 9 months after purchase. This replaced an elite series 1 controller that had the drift issue with the right stick. This has held up longer, but I now have some drift in the left stick. I don't play rough with the thing so I'm a bit disappointed I'm running into issues already. 90 day warranty is BS... might need to stick with the cheap controllers moving forward...

    Not worth the price. The paddles could be placed better, the controller is noticeably slimmer than the xbox one controller and just doesn’t fill my hands as I’d like. I don’t have large hands either. ABXY buttons aren’t as responsive as the xbox controller either. I can actually press gently press them all the way down without an input being registered and I can’t replicate that on the 50 dollar controller.

    Its known that elite series controllers are notorious for having stick drift out the box, and in this case, exactly what happened, apart from having stick drift, right bumper didnt work, and left stick when pressing wouldn't function either, hopefully the next xbox elite 3 controller work whenever they release it that is

    Awesome! If you’re wondering if it’s worth the big price tag, buy it. It’s more configurable than you think and rarely needs charging!

    I've tried many aftermarket controllers for the paddle functionality and this is by far the best. Very sturdy and high quality.

    I am an xbox elite controller power user. I bought the gen 1 controller when it came out and then upgraded to gen 2. The latter was the worst controller in terms of durability. I upgraded to this one because I didn't need the accessories. So far so good. Just to be safe I bought the warranty. No regrets.
