Good not great

Microsoft needs to do some quality control.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, the controller look and feel are excellent. I love the rubber grips (can't have a controller without them since the first Elite controller) and these feel better quality from the last. Because that was a major wear and tear issue before. I love the monochromatic look as well. Overall I'm a fan for the most part of the changes. USB-C, finally. There are just too many cons. I have gone through two of these controllers and they both had the same issues, and were 6 months apart. My A button is constantly sticking, it has a noticeable reaction lag. My RB, also sticks and has a noticeable sound when I press down on it, like a spring or something is our of place. The most used buttons were defective on arrival... on two models. I just can't justify getting this controller because it has been riddled with issues from the start. I had the 6m gap in between because Microsoft said they were addressing the issues... apparently not. Also, they don't include the taller analog sticks like the did in the first model. They include ONE, and it's far too tall. I feel like they skimped on the accessories to include the charging stand. For 200+ on a controller, I couldn't recommend it, and if you do buy the Best Buy Protection. Note: there's a reason the protection is so pricey on the controller...

Gamers will love!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The newest Elite controller is much more comfortable than its predecessor. The metal Melee toggles no longer hurt the users hands due to the smaller size of the product. I've had some issues with disconnection during game play otherwise it'd be 5 stars.
