    This controller functionally is great! However; this is my third iteration as the left and right bumpers wear out over time and even though they click, the input is not detected by the game. I primarily play Rocket League and use those bumpers frequently.

    First elite controller I’ve ever bought, and i now i dont think i can use or go back to a regular controller anymore. Firm, has some wight to it, definitely a premium feel. Would recommend it to everyone, it gets some getting use to having the paddles in the back if you’re using all of them but, you get used to it in no time

    So far this controller has perfomed well despite negative reviews regarding stick drifting. I come from using the Razer Wolverine Tournament edition and still enjoy that controller, but its just something about having the option to play wirelessly and still getting decent performance results makes my gameplay experience so much more enjoyable. I also do prefer the back paddles and adjustable stick tention over the Razer as well. Hopefully the quality lasts long.

    I own the Elite 1 and still have it from years ago. This is a great upgrade. Totally worth ever penny. They reformed paddles so you accidentally push them. Great controller from a hardcoe gamer!

    Picked this up as an open box. I love the feel and weight of this controller. I’m not a great player but this helps me play a bit better with the paddles and being able to assign what they do.
