    I got this controller for the trigger stops and better build quality compared to the base controllers. I don’t use the paddles on the back of the controller because they’re to easy to mistakenly press.

    These controllers are cool in theory but in performance I think this will be the last one i buy. I have had 3 of these in 4 years, each on having a different issue. The paddles work great on each one for 2-3 months. One of them had a headset jack issue where everytime someone talked to me, they heard themself echo in my headset, if i changed controllers the echo would stop. And my very first one of these the lb bumper wore out after 2-3 months.

    This is my second elite controller. Had the original version when I was console gaming but have switched to pc but haven't gotten used to the whole keyboard/ mouse combo yet. So far no stick drift and love the trigger locks and programmable buttons. Feels better than the wolverine ultimate I used to game with
