    Best controller on market for the mix of support and features. Terrible terrible build quality. I have gone through 6 of these. All for the same reason of bumpers breaking. I can now fix the issue myselfz but it requires taking the front plate of the controller off and most people don't want to do that. Nor do they want to buy isopropyl alcohol, i just happened to have some cause I built my PC.

    The controller is great quality and worth the price. Making sure to get the warranty in case there are any issues in the future.

    The first one had stick drift issues within the first 3 months. Luckily I was able to send it back to microsoft in time for a replacement. Second controller I received I had a week and it too had stick drift issue with the same joystick (right), so I sent returned that to microsoft as well. I just received my third controller yesterday. They sent me one never removed from the box as if I just bought it in the store. Charged it up and A button sticks. I also noticed an issue in the feedback when clicking the left stick. When pressed, its like it clicking twice, probably due to all the vertical play in the joystick. On to the fourth!!! Sucks I have to wait another 15 days. I would just return it for a replacement to bestbuy with my geeksquad warranty I purchased but these are never in stock. It has been months. If you dont care about wireless functionality, I would recommend the Razer Wolverine Ultimate.

    Great controller! I bought the original Elite Series when it first came out and was excited to finally upgrade to this controller. Once you start using this, it's hard to go back to a normal Xbox controller. The build is premium, but be prepared to get the extended warranty just in case you experience any issues.

    It is nice that you can adjust the trigger buttons so that you don’t have to pull all the way. The D-pad cover actually makes the D-pad easy to use. And it has an internal battery. Is it worth the extra money??? I just wish the standard controller had this D-pad and battery.

    For the most part, feels like a normal controller. It would be nice if the cradle in the case could hold a charge to charge it on the go.

    The previous gen was great and had clearly defined audio for all scenarios. The mic was a little lacking when compared to other headsets. Come gen 2 and they take the formula and tweak it just enough to give you the great audio with a great mic. Do keep in mind that it does have a removable foam filter on it in case that bothers you.
