Feels great, plays incredibly
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super awesome controller, love the Dpad, controller is sturdy, grip is nice, triggers feel responsive, buttons click well. This controller doesn’t come with paddles so you’ll have to buy them on the side.

Still not sure about the quality and longevity.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall feel, battery life and adjustable triggers are good and the controller feels good in hand. The only issue is the presence of some stick drift already after returning one with stick drift within just a couple weeks. One trigger is already emitting an occasional squeak that sounds like a spring ready to pop.

Worth every penny
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love the quality of the previous Elite controllers but this was worth the upgrade. The battery life is amazing, the weight is well balanced and does not cause fatigue. The packaging seems hefty but that is because the carry case has a battery charging. Also love that the carry case has a pass through port to charge the controller while having it protected in the case.

Quality Item!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second one of these I have purchased. My one son liked it so much that I purchased another for my other son. It's a bit pricy, however it seems that all remotes are going up in price. If you are going to spend the money and are looking for bang for your buck, this seems to be a great choice according to my son's who gain all the time.

Quality, Functionality, & Color
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The color is very vibrant, which, in my opinion, when purchasing a colored item such as a gaming controller, that is something we all fear will be an issue. My husband loves how great the quality of not only the color but the controller itself is. The joy sticks move smoothly creating for a nice time of video game playing. He loves that he can change out the sticks and other items to benefit his game play as well as to change up the colors if wanted. Not to mention that the accessories are magnetic making changing easier. This item works great for his XBOX and his PC use. We highly recommend.

Best one around.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely love this controller. The weight of it is great! Heavier than the normal controller. The button mapping is simple and very adjustable. Plus the charging port connecting to the case makes it easy to leave charging overnight while ensuring that it doesn’t fall. Battery life is also great.

Great remote with a few hiccups
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The remote is very good and works great for the most part except every once in a while the X button is a little iffy and when I'm holding x it says I have released the "x" button so I have to restart holding x. Other than that everything works as it should and it is worth it just for not needing batteries

Feels way better than normal controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The overall feel of the controller already makes it worth the purchase to me - but with the addition of the customizable paddles on the back make it to where I can’t go back now.

Almost perfect.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the controller but certain aspects don’t last long. I keep mine very clean and still end up with stick drift, sticky buttons, and bumpers that don’t work within 6 months.

Less bang for ur buck than the kit elite bundle
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a good controller and nice that they offer a cheaper option and other colors but if you want or need the extra buttons/parts it is much cheaper to buy it all together as a kit.

Awesome controller!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the controller. It does exactly what it says and does it better than the first generation Elite controller. Definitely get the replacement plan offered by Best Buy! If you game hard, you won’t regret it. Let’s face it, stick drift and button issues are a real thing no matter how much money you spend!

Working great so far!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First "upgraded" controller I have ever purchased and it has been working as expected so far. I really like the customization/remapping capabilities as well as the extra set of paddles. Still getting accustomed to the extra paddles, but I can attribute some improvements in my gameplay to this controller. Build quality is great and only time will tell how it holds up.

Just ok, but had to return 3 controllers
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller is great and works...when you do not get a defective one. We had to go through 3 before getting a good one. Some of the issues are: The A, B, and X button would get stuck. You would press it in and it would stay in. The trigger locks come off. They still work, but the rubber piece came off. The right trigger you would press it in and it would stick randomly. Now the good: *Charging is great. Never a problem. One charge would usually last 40 hours, we've never tested this because we put it on the charger after each use. So, it will last for probably that long. *It feels comfortable in your hand, especially playing long gaming sessions. *It has a long range. You can sit a good distance away from Xbox without any connection issues. *Syncing is great. Never had a problem with that and it is very easy to do.

Very good but very pricy.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works very well and has very good build quality. The paddles on the back make it very easy to keep you fingers on the joystick while using abxy. VERY pricy though. This is a premium priced product that really is not needed for most people.
