    Buy at your own risk. I bought this controller a year ago. The first one I got had an inconsistent A button. I returned it for a replacement to Best Buy. The replacement had the same issue. I mapped the A button to another button and was able to deal with it for a while. I sent it back to MS for repair. They had it for 2 weeks when it came back, same issue. Then it started to just turn off in the middle of a game. This happens at least once a week now even when the controller has a full battery. This would be a great controller if it wasn't so unreliable. I will say when the controller works it is great. Best controller I've ever used, unfortunately it doesn't always work.

    Great improvement on the last gen! The grips are much more durable and the controller looks great. However, already having to hard press the RB to work, after only a year of use. When customers spend that kind of coin, we want everything to work for more than a year.

    I owned multiple type of controllers like, scuf, cinch gaming, etc but it doesn’t compete with an Elite 2 controller 100%. You’ll take your gaming to an Elite status.

      Happy gaming,

    I love the controller my only complaint is the fact that the grip rubber comes off over time. A 200 dollar controller shouldn’t have that issue. It’s not just one it is a repeat issue on everyone I know who owns them.
