Great controller. Pricey and no pads.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller. Battery life is very good. It does not come with the pads so just a heads up. The price is high in my opinion but I have no complaints with the quality.

Premium Xbox Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super glad I chose to purchase the Wireless Elite Controller! I've used other controllers as well as paddles for them but nothing compares to this. The paddles feel natural and can be removed if you don't need them. Controller feels very premium. Definitely worth the money. I use this Controller for both Xbox and Pc and have had a great time doing so.

Good controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality & customization of this controller are excellent. There’s a little bit too much play due to the interchangeable joysticks causing a dead zone. Buttons don’t register sometimes not sure if this is a software issue. GET RID OF THE PLAYSTATION JOYSTICK AND REPLACE WITH MID-HIGH JOYSTICK , there’s no in between height analog joystick.

Great Controller, but wears out relatively quick
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only reason this controller doesn’t get a five star review is that it tends to develop stick drift or faulty bumpers. It’s worth it to get the protection plan to be able to replace it.

Best controller.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is fantastic. It feels great and is insanely customizable. It is slightly too small for my hands. They also removed 1 long thumbstick from the previous version. Even with my complaints, it is still the best controller around.

Worth IT
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely worth spending the extra money to get the better quality controller. I’ve had 5 controllers before this one and they all seemed to wear out pretty quickly. I love how it’s customizable as well.

Awesome remote!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, simply wow! I bought this out of curiosity and assumed I would end up returning it. I thought it was a gimmick to be honest. I haven't put it down since I configured it, I love the added weight the high quality components add to the feel. Highly customizable with replacement pieces. The software to customize the controller is pretty well done.

Best Mod controller you can buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was kind of disappointed at first because my A button was sticking. I had to return it to get a new and they were sold out. I loved the first Elite controller and think they are some of the best mod controllers on the market. I had a skud controller for my PS4 in the shape of Xbox controller and it just did not have the same feel.

Love it but...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing overall however, the durability is not quite there for the price. On my 2nd controller due to wear and tear or button smashed inside controller in 3 years. Otherwise, it's very nice feeling and works great

Best controller I've had so far.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Buttons started sticking on my xbox x controller already so i went with the elite. I really like how you can easily swap joysticks and add buttons. It makes my COD aiming a bit easier and faster. Can customize settings directly from xbox settings. So far this is my favorite controller I've had.

Awesome.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a really nice controller. I love the dark paddles, d-pad, and triggers. All buttons feel nice and the home button is “clicky”. It has a good weight to it and comes with a braided cable and cloth carrying case. The charging base that’s included isn’t quite heavy enough, so picking up the controller while it’s on the stand occasionally results in the base hanging onto the controller. But since the charger fits into the bottom of the fabric case that’s included, I plan to charge it inside the case instead of on a table. It has a nifty little opening in the back for the USB-C cable to pass through. I was a little bummed to see that only one convex (domed) joystick was included in the extras. I don’t like the look of the controller with two different joysticks and prefer domed joysticks over the standard Xbox ones. Not a big deal, but I am already searching for a second one. As a new owner of both this and the original elite controller, I highly recommend both. Once you feel the smooth joystick movement of the the elite controller, you won’t go back to playing with the standard ones. I waited too long to purchase my last one.

Not for average gamers, more for pros IMO
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I brought one home and thought I had just purchased what would become my favorite controller ever! Well… it could be if I gamed more. The amount of customizations, not just with the sticks, dpad, or tension, but also button mapping, are infinite. It honestly felt like TOO much for me. I like to game on weekends and when I can during the kids naps and such, so all of those customization options really didnt mean as much to me as I thought they would. I found myself taking the extra paddles off and just using the hair trigger for fps games. I LOVE the charger built into the case though. That is a nice touch. If this was my career, it would be worth the money 10 times over. But as a father of 2 toddlers, and 8-5 job, a really cool electric color controller will work just fine for my quick gaming sessions.

You should get this.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You just have to get this. Grips are good and help for long-term play with feel and sweaty hands. Triggers add to your options and how you play with three selectable configurations (+default) that you can customize via the Xbox accessories (computer) app. Just the fact that you can customize how all the buttons are configured for multiple setups makes this worth the money. I originally got this thinking that I needed it for teh directional pad that can be replaced with the concave pad (which is more comfortable). I was surprised to discover myself playing with the left directional stick that I had caused me to get the Elite2 -- the new adjustability allowed me to set it up the tension the way I wanted for games. Even SFV use felt good and more predictable that I could honestly play that as well as the concave directional. I think if the retail was $149 instead of $199 (or $179 on sale) this would probably be more palatable though.
