    Junk right out of the box. Cannot connect after u

    Microsoft "premium" garbage strikes again. Charged for 3 hours, connected as directed and recognized by Xbox One S Gears 4 special edition. Updated controller (standard on all consoles for initial connection, which also means the console recognized it and connected to it for the update) and that was it. Controller Immediately turned off and would not reconnect. Troubleshooting included Turn of xbox and controller, reconnect usong standard practice. No dice Try the 2 other basic controllers - no problem. Both connected and working perfectly. Dont worry, they were both off when I attempted to connect elite controller again. Still no dice. For $180 this thing shouldn't dookie the bed immediately after the update. Looked for solutions on the web and this seems to be a fairly common problem. Nice job Microsoft. Looks like you guys are taking cues from bethesda and bioware; putting out a product that doesnt work and charging a premium for it. I fell prey to the old elite controller failure (bumpers and grips not lasting 5 days) and got fooled again thinking this might be different. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice.. Shame on me. Never again. Save your $180 and go buy a switch. Xbox games and consoles have been junk for the last year or so with no support and no refunds. Taking back 2 new one X consoles I just bought for the new house as a matter of principal. Going to try out Nintendo and PS4 pro

    A great controller with great accessories. Bit expensive for not having hall effect joysticks, but overall very good.

    Test carefully! Triggers depress erratically.

    Just got this NEW controller today (5/10/23), got it updated, profiles set, and started playing. Thought I'd load up COD and see how it works, then I noticed it: My aim suddenly twitching as if I'm letting go of the left trigger...except I wasn't. Thought maybe it was that game. Tried another one, Division 2, same thing. Here's what I noticed. If I have the left trigger lock set to the smallest setting, hold the trigger down, then move the LEFT stick to the right, the trigger depresses on its own erratically. If I set the trigger lock to the medium setting, it's fine. No issues. This is unacceptable for a controller that costs $130+, even if it doesnt have the extra hardware. I had all of it already so that wasn't a big deal for me. I should be able to use the trigger locks as they are intended without worrying about buttons or triggers or sticks interfering with one another. Microsoft needs to do way better QC on these controllers before shipping them out.

    Made for casual players

    Stopped working well after a year of usage. Would recommend it for casual players but not for serious gamers. The joystick stopped working and would keep disconnecting. Became very frustrating when I would be playing online and then suddenly the controller needed to reconnect. Would not buy again.
