    I loved this remote at first but i feel like there are better options that are around the same price range that are built more durable.

    As much as I love the Xbox elite controllers, some times I feel as though they easily can break by simply using it too much or too little, and I bought this as I previously owned a controller thats warranty expired. Now I am not saying it will, but with this still being an elite controller with a different shell casing, there is a chance it could still break and me needing to send it in for repairs

    I got this and their headphones at about the same time thinking they would be easy to link and use together. Nope! Returned the headphones. I kept this because I think/hope that I can make some adjustments once I sit down and figure how to do that. Still, for my large hands the paddles are too long, as in the way, too easy to hit accidentally. They feel like a good solid build. Aside for the paddles, it seems to be a good controller. I would recommend, but with these concerns.

    Series 2 improves on Series 1 Elite

    The series 2 is an improvement for the most part. Paddles feel more comfortable to use and hand grips better. Love the 360 style thumb sticks Watch out for: The rubber pads on trigger locks. They might fall off and pinch you to let you know they're not there anymore. Eventually you don't notice it missing. The rubber grips vastly improved on by first controller but some times pop up from long term use. Just pop it back in and it should fix it. Get a warranty just in case :)
