    Love the elite controllers. After using one it will be difficult to use a normal controller.

    This broke after only two months. The right joystick, which I never use, spins freely when centered, and gets stuck when I move it up. Microsoft warranty is worthless as it costs $49 for shipping and parts. It lists specific parts but I don't even know if that will fix it. This is the most I have paid for a controller and have been very careful with it. My old, generic XBox controller lasted for years.

    I know its the "core" but i thought you would at lease get one set of paddles. Its okay that i didnt because 3rd party on amazon was only $13 for the paddles so you save a ton not getting the case and other accessories.

    The controller is excellent. It is making a noticeable difference in my gaming. Training myself to use it has been a different battle. Noticeable issues are the occasional missed press. When the remote has been dormant for longer than 10+ seconds, it seems to need a second press to engage.

    A noticeable upgrade over the Series X default controller. Sturdier in hand, quieter button presses, full customization of stick and paddles, but most importantly, reduced input lag that has actually helped me get more kills in FPS games! I didnt think the price was worth it, but now that I have this controller, couldnt game without it!
