    Sexy & Durable

    Love this controller. If you are thinking of upgrading your Xbox controller and deciding between this and an actual "SCUF" it is a toss up, BUT there are a few things about this that I like vs the SCUF. I like that the underbody paddles are over-under instead of side by side. It allows you to use your middle and ring fingers as opposed to the SCUF design which you have to move your middle finger back and forth to use. Also, it is compatible with all xbox compatible components which the SCUF isn't always apt to do. Lastly, this product is sexy. The charger, the carry case, the interchangeable buttons/joy sticks—everything is beautiful, durable, and nicely designed.

    This is the second elite controller i have purchased and it is great. I dont know how long a controller should go before getting stick drift but the first one i bought lasted less than a year before drifting became a real issue. Thankfully i have protection on this one in case the problem arries again.

    Have a couple of PS5 Dual Sence controllers but no matter what you do on PC, they are rarely compatible with most games. So, i had my eye on this for a while. Finally took the plunge and so glad I did! Perfectly compatible on PC. Comes with everything you need including a charger.

    Great price, however paddles in the back will wear/tear after awhile and a paddle might become a little loose. maybe 6 months in for a casual player. Doesn't affect gameplay too much but annoying sometimes. Also my left thumbstick keeps coming loose sometimes but that doesnt affect gameplay, just annoying.

    Elite controllers are terrible and unreliable

    I have owned three elite controllers since they came out. I have owned two series 1’s. A first gen and another about a year later (hoping the bugs were worked out). The first had the button sticking issue they were all plagued with. The other had trigger issues sticking/not responding as well as the menu buttons not responding. Both of these were returned. Now I own one of the series 2’s and they’re just as bad. I bought one and immediately had to return it. It had some sticky black rubber stuck on the right stick that locked the stick up. The one I have now works but it is not worth the price. Absolute waste of money and I will not be buying another. The controller that comes with the console lasted longer.

    Hands down my go to controller. The quality isn't always the best, i definitely recommend the warranty. I'm on my third one. The first one began to get a non responsive right trigger, the second one was doing the same and stick drift. I'd swap the joysticks out for Gulli's. Regardless of the problems, the controller fits in my, larger than average, hands far better than any other I've tried.

    When I bought this controller, I wasn’t sure if it was really all it was cracked up to be especially since I’m so used to the standard Xbox one controllers but let me tell you, I will never use any other controller, it feels great in the hands, the build construction is perfect and the battery life is even better, not to mention but the case and the extras are pretty sweet!

    Great quality controller, feels very premium. You can customize the triggers and buttons I have larger hands and it makes the back triggers hard to use, but that’s the only negative I have.
