Worth the money

Still worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Having the elite controller helps out with a lot of games by allowing you to keep your thumbs on the joy cons at all times. The only thing I recommend is getting the protection plan since the buttons will wear down pretty fast

Great purchase
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this controller! Switch from a different brand custom controller that started falling apart after 6 months! As soon as I opened this one I noticed the quality was much better! The ease of setting up your custom button profiles and switching between them is amazing!

Good quality
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Version two is a step up from the original elite controller. High quality everything down to the rubberized feel. USB c makes this controller something that should last much longer than the original as this was a point of failure in mine.

Better choice
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall the elite series have been a better choice for xbox only thing i wish they would change is the joysticks to the new magnetic ones to stop the terrible stick drift problem that all console makers have
I would recommend this to a friendNice Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely incredible piece of gaming equipment. I feel like a true professional using this controller and would recommend to ANYONE who wants to use a controller with paddles.
I would recommend this to a friendLove it!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice and with the rubber added to it, it is easier to hold and maneuver the joy stick. It is sharp looking with the black and white.

Great Buy!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great conreoller. Very reactive and adjustable. With option for paddles which changes the game!
I would recommend this to a friend Eh they keep breaking
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For a while, it works really great, but eventually the bumpers go out. I’ve gone through multiple elite controllers and now two core controllers. Same problems on all of them. Maybe my grip strength needs to calm down, but the more likely option is multi connectors within the controller that allow the actuator button to break off after a period of time.

Good not great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good but there are better for cheaper. If you want a high end controller go for it but there are cheaper options that are just as good.

Good Controller but...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
