    If you're looking for an obvious gaming edge this controller is what you're looking for. Back paddles should be considered illegal NEVER remove your fingers from the analogs. Controller itself is slick looking buttons are so easy to switch, comes with multiple replacement analogs different heights/styles (concave or bubbled). Yes controller is a bit expensive but if you're into competitive gaming or just into expensive fancy looking things then buy this right now and don't look back..

    Awesome controller! Has many customizable options and settings that can be stored for different games. A little pricy but worth it.

    My very first Elite controller. The grip is nice. Paddles are a life changer move. The different sticks also make it very customizable

    This is a really nice controller. Smoother and more precise than my old xbox one controllers. Apparently the "Core" version doesn’t come with any parts for some of the extra levers, so I had to drop $20 online for some aftermarket levers for the back of the controller.

    Great controller for the money very easy to use use.The only thing I didn't like was.The analog sticks and the directional pad have pieces that don't snap real tight and they fall off easily but if you pay attention to that it's a great controller

    although i don’t use all the paddles in the back, using even 2 is a big game changer. also being able to change the button sensitivity is great!

    Mushy face buttons, mushy trigger even with trigger stop. Quality build, solid feel but razer v3 pro and even the wires tournament edition are leagues above if you want mouse click, instant response on all triggers.

    Keep it away from kids that don't know how to respect people's things. This is my 3rd Elite Controller. 1 first gen and 2 second gen. My daughters completely broke the first 2. This one goes under lock and key. I love the USB TYPE C for data and charging it cuts down on the amount of stuff I have on my desk. Virtually no input lag wireless. Works better in COD wired in my opinion. Great weight to it. It feels solid and premium. Just enough weight to make you feel engaged in the action but not too much to fatigue the forearms.
