    Love this upgrade to my previous Elite Series 1 controller. More options. More setups. Better grips and joystick options. Better weight ratio than the Elite 1. Worth the price.

    Great controller, unfortunately it’s extremely overpriced for what it is. I honestly don’t see enough reasons to spend $179.99+ tax on this over a regular controller. The extra buttons and attachments feel more like a personal preference over a necessity. There are far cheaper options out there for a similar experience. Also, it doesn’t seem to last any longer than a regular Xbox controller. In addition, the warranty is over $60, the cost of a standard Xbox controller.
