    Ive only had regular and a fusion controller but the feel of the elite has been the best. Tightening of the sticks and just the mapping of the paddles love!

    Bought two. One for me, me for my son. To me, it’s just a well built controller. To my son, this thing is a gift from the heavens. Like I said, well built, heavy, interchangeable doo-dads, cool charging case, pretty neat. Get one.

    The newest Elite controller is much more comfortable than its predecessor. The metal Melee toggles no longer hurt the users hands due to the smaller size of the product. I've had some issues with disconnection during game play otherwise it'd be 5 stars.
