    Doesn't Have Rear Paddles/Buttons!!

    I use a Scuf Reflex PS5 controller for a lot of my gaming that has rear paddle buttons. Some of the games launched on my PC through the XBox app don't play nicely with that controller so I thought I would pick up an equivalent XBox controller. Much to my dismay there aren't any rear paddles on this "elite" controller!!!!! I never would have even thought to check if that's something an "elite" controller came with or not...the PlayStation equivalent includes them. Disappointed that XBox/Microsoft would even have this as an option and wouldn't explicitly call out that there are no paddles on this "elite" controller. But I do have spaces where paddles are supposed to go that I can look at I guess. Not sure what the point of this controller is compared to the standard XBox controller.

    amazing device. sticks are much tighter and more precise, adjustable resistance on triggers is very useful. i love the swappable sticks too. the long stick is great for precision aiming in fps games. the backpaddles are the best part. being able to do things like revive other players, reload, jump without having to sacrifice any measure of movement or control through moving a thumb off of a stick is huge

    This controller is a great step up from the previous version, but quality control issues have begun to plague the usability. The A button is not responsive, the RB button either doesn't respond or it double presses when you tap it. Trying to get a replacement with my replacement plan is a nightmare since its never in stock in store and customer service can't help me either.
