    Excellent controller. Buy the geek squad replacement with it so you can get a new one in 2 years when something goes wrong.

    If you have an XBOX ONE, the elite controller is a must have! After using the paddles you wont want to go back!!!

    The paddles on the back are nice for shooting games and not having to take your fingers off buttons. However I’ve barely had mine over a month and the left trigger is already stuck and it randomly disconnects while playing. Sometimes the paddles also don’t register when using them. I definitely wouldn’t buy another.

    I purchased this controller about a month ago and what a difference in gameplay. I no longer use the buttons during play instead am using the paddles which for me works much more efficient. The quality of this is amazing and better than any other controller I had. I was always a fan of PlayStation controllers until someone told me this controller will change my mind in many ways for gaming. If you are a hardcore FPS I recommend this controller all day long.

    I got an open box in good condition controller. The only thing missing was the directional pad that you can see on most pictures. Otherwise, perfect condition, all other parts and connected fast to my Xbox.

    This is the 3rd one of these I have purchased. Not because they wear out, because my 2 sons had to have one also. Nice battery life,
