    The construction is very sturdy. I only use one of the paddles under the controller but it gives you a lot of options for customization. Its a bit pricey for a controller but well worth the money.

    I’m giving this controller 5 stars based off of the actual controller and feel of it. I’ve been using this controller for about 4-5 years now and it is my favorite controller of all time. With that being said I highly suggest the geek squad warranty because I am very clean and careful with my controllers and I haven’t had one last more than a year. The buttons become sticky or stop working and stick drift is going to happen at some point no matter what. I love the controller, but the longevity is not what it should be for $200

    Love this controller! I’m a tad behind when it comes to controllers but I got to say if you can get one of the elites. From top to bottom one of the best controllers out there and I’ve been gaming for 30+ years.

    The Battery Life is impeccable and the fact that you can customize the d-pad and thumbsicks makes it so cool. It has usb type c for charging which is great and I can connect the case to the usb charger so I can use the charging pad. Worth every penny.

    Big difference noticed when playing with an elite series controller vs the standard xbox ones. Handles have some grip to them that feel nice when hands get clammy

    When buying these controllers take out the warrenty as you will need it. Left and right bumpers go out as my previous ones did. With that being said stick tension adjustment and paddels make a huge difference in game play and the controller feels great ergonomicly. Love my Elite controller just wish there was better life to bumpers.

    This is my second one of these in 3 years. I love this controller so much the paddles make all the difference when playing competitive fps games. Heavy use will wear it out but still works great for a long time.

    Awesome controller, amazing features for true hardcore gamers but there are a few flaws. My RT (right trigger) over time became very "sticky" it would require me to put in extra pressure to press the trigger down after having it in the medium trigger sensitivity for about a month.... not a big fan of that (like really 1 month). Also the cover on the trigger sensitivity lock popped off of my controller also within the first month and I have yet to drop this controller even as I write this review months later. Either I was given a bad controller or these are designed to break easy but regardless of the cons it's a good controller all around. take my advice GET WARRANTY ON IT!

     The only thing that makes me a little sad as it did not come with a paddle attachment, but other than that it is a great controller to use for both PC and Xbox

    Solid controller, I would recommend buying the protection plan just in case it fails, but I honestly love everything about this controller to include the 40 hour battery life. I take care of my things and I haven’t had any issue with the controller itself
