    Good when brand new, stick drift happens on either left or right thumb stick after a few months of use. BestBuy makes it easy to exchange broken defective items with their pro plan without any hassle.

    Definitely a great controller. Nice weight and the buttons feels more premium than the non elites. Only downside is the price. This is worth the investment if you game a lot on pc or Xbox. The buttons on the back are programmable but only with the inputs that are already on the controller. I could not find a way to map it with a macro or a specific key.

    I love this controller it’s a good all in one. No matter what game I wanna play it can adapt to what I need the battery life is pretty solid and no more AA batteries. I got mine open box and it was in like new condition minus the oem box but definitely worth the money saved versus new

    Comes in a great case for carrying and storage. Works as intended - feels far better than the XBox One controller I was using prior to this. I am using on PC, and the paddles and adjustability of the controller makes fore a great product. Little pricey, but worth the investment if you game at all and need a solid controller.

    I ended up returning this item. I like the charging station it came with. The paddles on the back are a really nice addition. Unfortunately it had stick drift very quickly. I returned it because withing a few days I had regular stick drift. So, I could tell it was at a higher quality and better controler but the stick drift so early on was something I had to return for. For the dollar amount, I felt there should be no issues with it day 1.

    There's not one bad thing I could say about this controller the build quality is incredible the option to change out every single thing on the controller the coolest future ever you can adjust the tension on the phone sticks you have to back paddles on each side that you can control and take off you can set your triggers to Hairpin or all the way push the grip keep your hands from getting clammy its literally the best controller I have ever held. Just put it back in its case to charge no more batteries packs. Its just perfect.

    There's a lot of reviews out there discrediting this controller as being unreliable or easily damaged. I've had it for four months now and play almost every day and have had zero issues. I did, however, purchase the replacement plan to cover myself in case there are some issues down the road, but everything's good so far. Feels premium and built in battery and charging dock are super convenient.

    Highest quality controller I've ever had

    I had recently bought the Xbox elite controller as well as the PlayStation Pro and the Xbox elite controller is far superior in quality, feel, and it came with an awesome (also high quality) magnetic charging unit that you can dock the controller on when not in use. I don't want to use any controller other than the Xbox elite- which I use for my PC. This luxury controller truly feels as such. 10/10. Don't hesitate to buy.

    Massive Improvement Over The Original

    This controller is a big improvement over the original Elite with the built in battery pack, and enhanced D-pad. The only thing I had to make modifications to are the paddles on the back because my hands are big and I wasn't able to hold the controller normally, so I ordered a duplicate set of paddles and used the shorter sets for top and bottom. I took it a step further and trimmed about 1/4 inch off the top paddles and now it's perfect. It's unfortunate that Microsoft didn't offer a couple different variants of paddles for people with larger hands, but it's still a solid controller and worth every penny.

    I cannot express how much I enjoy this controller. If you're looking to get a high end, customized gaming experience then this is a no brainer. The controller has nice weighty feel to it and the buttons have a good tactile sensation. It takes a little bit to figure out the button mapping features and customization but once you do it's a dream. The best part is the battery life, this thing can go for hours upon hours before needing a charge. The charging cradle works incredibly well and I've had no issues with the contacts. All in all if it's something you're willing to spend the money on you will not regret this purchase

    Great feel to the sticks, buttons, and triggers. The customization through the console is great if you take the time to adjust everything carefully. I have an older model with the paddles (extra purchase on this model) and I can remove them and put them on this one when I want to. Overall a much better controller than the standard Xbox controller.
