    As excited as I was to finally get an Xbox Elite controller, I have not ever been more disappointed by a controller in my life. This is the night I received it, and I am already having issues with it. The A button gets stuck so much, and this is a common issue as it appears in other reviews. Microsoft created a flawed controller that isn't worth half its price. The proof is in the reviews as consumers prefer the Fusion wired controller over this Elite series 2 controller. Even the regular stock controller feel more comfortable, and that's pretty sad to say as they are proven to be cheaply made. I will be looking forward to just convert to PC gaming.

    The grip is better than the other elites and works just as good. For PC useres, buy a dongle.
