    I love elite controllers I have had three this is one of my favorite ones they are a heavy durable controller and would recommend for the price the trigger stops are not cheaply made and I have played almost two years on my controller and they haven’t worn down

    couldn't be happier with this item I'm a PC gamer who in rare cases prefer the conformity of a controller over mouse and keyboard.

    Its good, but the quality with the buttons are hit or miss. I believe there was a lawsuit against M$ over button issues.

    I got 3 different controllers and all of them had a problem where the A button wouldn’t work if you pressed it a certain way. My brother had one where the A button would get stuck in the down position. The updated paddles are better than the old version. I think it’s the best gaming controller out there when it’s working properly.

    I like how the controller felt in my hands when i first used it. Very premium feel. Should bought one of these a long time ago lol. I like how i am able to make adjustments to my controller ans have it set with profiles. Tif you sre looming for a great controller for your Series X you should give this one a try. Just my opinion

    Stick drift after 3 months of casual use

    I love this controller. It feels very nice in hands. The grips are a huge upgrade over the Series 1 controller, and having 3 presets also makes a huge difference. After 3 months of use though, I got major stick drift. Best Buy will not help but Microsoft has a 1 year warranty because of this problem. I'm sending my controller to Microsoft now for free but it will take 2-3 weeks to get a refurbished controller sent back to me. I'm very upset that there are no good controller companies with paddles that aren't the overpriced scuf controllers. It's a bummer that they didn't just put nice joysticks in this very expensive controller. Other than that, it is really great but that is game breaking.

    So when I finally got my hands on the series x I bought a second controller so my son and I could play. The x box controllers are great! This controller is a total game changer. If you play FPS games having those paddles on the back will automatically up your game. This thing feels rock solid! I love that you can set the trigger distance, that was a big plus! Bottom line I would have went straight to this controller! It rocks!

    Love these controllers. Had the elite series 2 for like 4 years and it finally gave up. Getting the core after allowed me to use my spare parts from the elite series 2 to customize the elite core. It’s a more affordable option if you already have elite parts!
