    The XBOX Elite series controller is very useful for gaming on the Xbox and holds up well for long use with its long batter time.

    Core Elite Red is beautiful. Love the red cord as well. Do not use the paddles. Love the app to customize every button. Makes a difference.

    This is a great controller. Customizable in many ways, with my fav being the ability to make the triggers into hair triggers with a simple switch on the bottom of the controller. I love that it's rechargeable and contains the built-in charger in the carrying case.
