    It’s ok I guess. I got it on sale otherwise I would never have purchased. Good if you need to map a lot of buttons.

    Grandson loves it! It charges itself, has its own case, stores neatly away and stay safe. Totally worth it.

    For the price, it should be made more resistant. One drop and that’s it, the buttons get stuck.

    Ive worn out my Elite Series two, so i grabbed this and saced $50 on the stuff i had from the original. I love the white and black! These controllers are fantastic, but having had three, are prone to random failures. The most commkn for mer are the rear paddles with randomly stop working. Its bot the switch failing rather the plastic the the paddles hook into wears out and there anfle of the paddle is off enough it camt trigger the switch. I have to be clear, ive not worn or broke three previous controllers but have stick drift on one and the other the paddle problems. The third is fine, i just use it for another system. I do recommend this controller as there arent any out there thet beat it

    I was skeptical about paying $200 for a controller

    This controller is amazing. I was very skeptical at first of paying over $200 for a controller (with the warranty), but this is the best controller I've ever owned. The grips, additional paddles, interchangeable joysticks and D-pad are fantastic. There are so many customizeable features about this and it feels like a premium product. You can tell that Microsoft put a lot of work into this controller design. I'd encourage others to purchase one unless you're holding out for next-gen controllers.

    Stick Drift Quality Control Nightmare

    Exchanged for a total of 3 times, first one the select button intermittently worked, other 2 had stick drift right out of the box and 2 days into using it...finally exchanged the 4th time for a black elite (the more expensive one) and now this one has stick drift after 4 days of usage...i cannot understand WHY Xbox has such poor quality control and products for as much as they cost! Absolutely ridiculous. Other than these issues the controllers feel great, have a good weight to them, and are very user friendly...but i cannot overlook the blatant issues!

    It works well but the A button is intermittent already after only a couple of months of light use (8-12 hours a week). No issues with the grips yet like the first elite. The elite series 2 joysticks do work so that's a plus.

    Was a huge fan of the first elite controller and with all the improvements made to this one, it is by far the best controller out there!

    Get the gen 2. This one is good but the new one is better. Still an upgrade from the original controller though. XBOX!
