Really levels up your FPS experience. Takes a while to get used to the paddles but it’s a game changer if you’re trying to keep your thumbs on the sticks!

I picked up this elite controller after a flood of recommendations from so many sources. I thought it would allow for some macros and other useful things through the use of the paddles but that didn't pan out. I really want to love this thing but it's hard to. The default vibration sounds like it's trying to saw itself in half. But props to them for allowing you to turn that down in the accessories app. You can make some fine tuning to your dead zones and joystick curves there as well. If you drop this controller, you'll get to pretend it's a Mr. Potato head and go hunting for the joysticks and the D pad insert. The levers on the back, as cool as they look, are useless at best and intrusive at their worst. They'd be useful if you could use them to macro together a combination of key presses or if they were a unique button recognized by game developers. But the only control you have over these things is what button to you want it to mimic. Or, realistically, what buttons do you want to accidentally press all the time? The handle grips are great and the triggers are nice as well. I like that the controller came with both a charging dock and a usb-c port. Battery life is good so far. Having the option to pick thumb sticks is a cool feature and one of the few unique aspects I think is actually useful. Being able to pick what Dpad you like is neat, but in a perfect world unless you're playing retro titles or fighting games I think it's of limited use. Unless new functionality gets added for the elite, I personally don't think it's worth it's asking price. I wouldn't buy it again. The elite is no where near 3x as nice as a standard controller but it's certainly 3x the price. If these were half the price, they'd be great.

Love this controller! The weight/balance is amazing. The customization is incredible. Recommend you use the Xbox accessories app (Xbox or PC) to fine tune your inputs. 10/10 would buy again.

This WAS my 2nd elite. Ended up getting the white and black recently becuz this elite bumpers were messed up and the left thumb stick wouldn’t move my in game character forward nor sprint. I was out of warranty and couldn’t send it in. So I now have 3 elites smh. Series 1 and two series 2. Lol it’s a great controller for PVP and PVE. Just don’t drop the controller. Not even once.

Great controller from XBOX definitely 1 of the best

Has nice weight to it and feels sturdy....battery life is very good. Was a little pricey. Time will tell if it was worth it but I am enjoying it right now.

The quality of this controller is like nothing I've owned before in console gaming. Very sturdy, great options and ample customization

Had the controller for 6 months, worked great, then R1 stopped being responsive. Now it takes a huge amount of force for it to register. Overall, the gamepad is ok, but besides the materials i think a regular series controller is better than this.

The elite controller is very well built and great for xbox or PC gaming. Very customizable from changing analog sticks to increasing the tension of the sticks. The rear additional paddles are a game changer! Opportunitys are endelss utilizing those, Though at a price point of close to $200 finding one on sale would be a great purchase!

Definitely a step above the standard Xbox controller. I use on the PC and connecting is simple and battery life lasts me several play sessions.

This thing has some heft to it, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying hours of play. Easily the best Xbox controller available, and that is considering the Scuf Gaming and Battle Beaver options. I love the build quality and the ease of use with the trigger stops and paddles. I can swap in and swap out paddles, the directional pad, thumbsticks, and macro's quickly and easily thanks to the clever design of the whole controller. I also like that I can adjust the thumbstick tension. The carrying case with the ability to use a charging pad from within is a nice touch.

0 issues after several months usingbthis controller nearly every day. 10x better than the standard controller. I use scuf paddles with it. The custom mapping with the 3 presets is great if you like having different mapping for different games.

[Employee of bestbuy] Amazing controller, it may be overpriced but it's amazing for competitive gaming. I got lucky because I bought it as Open Box, but it works perfect. Tip: if you get one open box try it with the Xbox Accessory app and see if there is any issue with it, if there is return it ASAP, if not enjoy cause it's amazing!

This is by far the best controller you can buy for Xbox. It is so customizable, comes with a built in battery that last supper long and they even included a charging case for the controller.

An excellent remote. So comfortable to use. A lot of customization options. Very fancy.

Better then using a regular controller. The Elite controller is an amazing controller in my book. Playing call of duty for amount of years and playing this game....most of my controllers are wear and tear. But the Elite is holding strong. An I mean strong. You can feel the difference. Buy an Elite controller...it will change the game play.

Bought this as a gift for my partner and he definitely liked. I wasn't to sure at first because it was a bit expensive, but he said that it was definitely worth it.

The controller is very light weight, well-built and love the grap but attracts a lot of dirty due to the white part

Had the controller for 4-5 months overall good has good durability and very customizable

Paddles work great. Serve a great purpose! Customizable
