    I was using a standard Xbox controller for racing games and with manual mode taking different buttons, this makes it easier to switch gears.

    I’m going to give my honest opinion on this controller. I thought it would be better than the first series but it has the same issue. It starts wearing down and the buttons and sticks won’t work anymore. I recommend anyone who buys this please pay for the warranty it will save you money later. I did purchase warranty and will be refunding it.

    Upgrade from an elite one controller. Feels solid and well made, but so did the elite one until it fell apart.

    The triggers are super cheap feeling they shift to the side when you press them and make that cheap plastic squeaking noise. The regular xbox controller feels better in hand than this one and its almost 2/3 of the price cheaper.

    This co controller is a improvement over the first elite in every way except. It feels a bit smaller, and tends to dig into your palms a bit more.

    This controller is great for playing things like shooters where tracking and trigger speed are important, but if you're more of a casual player then it may be a bit overkill.

    Love it. Same as elite 2. It just doesn't bring the case and charger. Definitely worth it.

    I'd give it 0 stars if I could. The button that is used to sync it to the Xbox devices is broken so I can't sync it to any other devices now and it's stuck synced to my PC. I haven't even owned it for a year yet. It's a real shame I liked the paddles on the bottom of the controller but can't see spending another 170$ for another one.
