    Was a huge fan of the first elite controller and with all the improvements made to this one, it is by far the best controller out there!

    I was skeptical about paying $200 for a controller

    This controller is amazing. I was very skeptical at first of paying over $200 for a controller (with the warranty), but this is the best controller I've ever owned. The grips, additional paddles, interchangeable joysticks and D-pad are fantastic. There are so many customizeable features about this and it feels like a premium product. You can tell that Microsoft put a lot of work into this controller design. I'd encourage others to purchase one unless you're holding out for next-gen controllers.

    For the price, it should be made more resistant. One drop and that’s it, the buttons get stuck.
