    I’m still using it and it feels like it’s still new. I pretty much game most of the day. I like the custom profiles, so I can have it set for whatever game I’m playing.

    I have the first elite controller. This is slightly better but with a rechargeable battery and tweakable sticks for tension. If you have discounts awaiting you(rewards), I highly recommend.

    My son loves this controller. Get the warranty from best buy even though it was covered under microsoft. Just easier and seamless. My son is hard on his remotes, he is 10.

    Happy with my purchase I'm just hoping it last longer than the first series I bought and exchanged a couple since I had either buttons break or drift. This one feels better built than the them.
