    I really like the elite controllers because they come with tools to fix your controller and they are fixable. The paddles are amazing and increased my gameplay.

    It is the best controller that you can own for the Xbox. Period. It doesn't come with all the components of the Elite, but you can purchase those add-ons.

    The customization for the buttons is a really nice feature. I like that i can have multiple profiles of configurations for different games and styles of play. Comfortable controller as well.

    First time buying an upgraded controller. Stock controller was drifting badly. There are multiple settings on this. I have no idea what they’re for, yet. So far so good.

    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.

    Great quality! The pieces can come off easily and get lost but mainly only happens during game rage. If you’re not a psychopath with built up anger that you take out while playing Roblox, you’re gonna love this controller!

    Controller is awesome. Battery charge lasts for days at a time and that is with hours of game play. I like that you can chage the joysticks, paddles and Tpad easily all magnetized, easy on and off. The case to hold and charge controller is very sturdy and holds everything. Would definitly recommend

    Love the controller. Hate that the charging port stopped working only a little over a month after purchase. Microsoft is going to fix the issue, though, so 4 stars it is.

    So far this controller is pretty solid. I did have the series one version of this and the rubber grips peeled off after a while. The ones on here seem a bit more solid though. I do like how you can adjust tension on joysticks. Happy to not have to change batteries either.

    Heavier than the plastic controllers makes for a more comfortable grip. I was originally uncertain on the paddles (20 years of muscle memory with buttons), but actually makes for more enjoyable game play in first-person shooters. Highly recommend even for the “older” gamers.

    Great controller, a little heavy but that's what you get when you have all the abilities this controller provides and it also has a built in rechargeable battery. Defiantly the best Elite Controller that Xbox has made. Makes other controllers feel cheap.

    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.
