    Controller is excellent for gamers. Love how it can be modified and fitted to your individual game play needs. Carry case and accessories are all very well bit and in my opinion worth the money.

    Great controller for Xbox One X, bought it for Warzone and added bonus it works with the Series X. If you game somewhat competitively at all, this is worth the upgrade.

    As far as the use of this controller after 5 years of using the elite controllers I can't even go back to using a regular controller. I love this controller. On the other hand I've replaced my controller 3 times due to the left or right bumper not working after a period of time. My advice make sure to pay for the best buy coverage and replace it as needed.

    Awesome gift to give at an affordable cost, the upgrades in the next level up can still be purchased but separately still being microsoft. The handling is a great combination of grip and sleekness, even looks great.
