    It’s good but the case that microwave gives you pushes on the sticks a bit much for me to be fully happy with the full kit. Other wise it has great battery life and the charging stand is nice to have out the box.

    Fresh out of the box, it's an absolute beast, but tends to show its age after a year. If you're purchasing this, do yourself a favor a get the 2yr warranty as it's notorious for stick drift after continuous use.

    It was good for a little while, until I started to get major stick drift in both the thumbsticks. However, it was covered by Microsoft's warranty and I was able to send it in and they sent be back a brand new one, and no problems since!

    I ordered an XBox Elite controller online for a Christmas gift and it was ready to pick up less then 2 hours later at my local Best Buy store. Once i went into the store. I was waited on immediately, got the controller within 2 mins. No hassel or anything. Great overall experience and I will continue to order my electronics from Besy But. Excellent self help and customer service. An this is not the dirst time.

    Best competitive controller

    I have had other competitive controllers before like SCUF, but this is my favorite. Easy to setup controller mapping and just feels great. Love the layout of the paddles easy to press and takeoff. I haven't had it for too long, but so far I can't use any other controller besides this. Especially when I'm playing shooters just changes everything.

    Great so far! Had a modded controller before this one and the buttons started sticking. I’m not a fan of the big paddles on the rear of the controllers so this worked out great. I love the feel of the rubber on the controller.

    I really like this controller. It feels very premium, and it has helped me with my gameplay due to the paddles. They were a little tough to get used to at first since you have to grip the controller slightly less firm, but once you get used to it, it feels very natural. The thumbsticks are also very smooth and precise.

    Always love these controllers sadly this is my third one over time the left thumb stick seems to never recenter completely it's not that noticeable until you're playing a game that requires precision and this is also the second controller where the right bumper also messed up and sometimes doesn't work.

    This controller, along with the paddles, takes gaming to another level. If you play any FPS, I recommend buying this controller as you can fine tune the entire controller to your liking.
