    While the elite certainly does not feel as lightweight and cheap as the standard Xbox controller, there seems to be a design flaw specifically with the letter buttons. When, pressing the A button, it almost never registers, unless I press it with excessive force. I find it to happen most often when moving from the thumb stick to the A button, resulting in pressing it in a slightly upward direction. I already bought one controller, returned it for a replacement, and now the replacement does the exact same thing right out of the box a little worse than the original one. Will be returning.
