    I didn’t think I noticed much of a difference at first until I forgot to charge this controller, using my old controller felt like using a fisher price toy. This is such nice quality, the charge lasts so long, and it’s heavy in a good way. Weighty.

    Excellent grip, customizable via hardware and software which is very unique and helpful, various options for sticks and pads and triggers, and the warranty is by far the best warranty I have ever received. Would HIGHLY recommend for PC or XBOX gaming

    Controller feels nice, has a nice quality feel to it. Only issue is the sides of the controller have been lifting and the RB button works about 40% if the time. Awesome controller, 5 starts if I wasn’t experiencing those issues.

    I’ve always been a fan of these controllers. Love that you can tighten down the sticks, change how far you need to press the triggers, and also save 3 different settings for games.

    This is now one of my favorite controllers ever. I love the build quality, the customization, the look and feel of the controller, and just everything else this controller has to offer. Paired with the Xbox accessories app it makes gaming so much more comfortable

    This thing is a game changer. Extremely tight gameplay. The hair trigger option is very cool and the buttons just feel higher quality. It’s a little heavier than a normal controller abut feels great in your hands. The buttons underneath take some time to get used to but are all fully customizable. It comes with a very cool charging/ travel case which is great. I would recommend this to any serious gamer. Huge improvement over my standard controller.

    Much more appealing versus the previous models. Wireless with built in rechargeable battery with a dock, that you can plug in through the back of the case protecting everything whilst charging

    This is my third one. They are pretty solid at battery life and adjustable thumbsticks but it seems that the Lb and Rb tend to break easily

    Caught this while on sale and it's still holding up strong after a few months. Well worth picking up if you can catch it on sale. No stick drift yet, so fingers crossed.

    Great controller! Has a wonderful grip feel and very long battery life. I had the paddles left over from a broken series one elite controller so they moved right over. But the thumb sticks don’t transfer so keep that in mind.

    This is the best remote I’ve ever owned. No stick drift and smooth as butter! Plus the worker made me aware w my protection package this remote would also be covered for any issues and if it couldn’t be fixed theyd simply give me a new ine

    Expensive but fun addition to my console.

    The first thing I noticed was the heft of the controller. This thing is rock solid. I will say, playing with all four paddles didn’t let me get as good a grip as I wanted, so I only play with the top two (I have large hands and the lower ones got in the way), but I enjoy the advantage of being able to keep my thumb planted on the right stick. There is slight drift in the right stick out of the box and adjusting the stick tension did not fix it. That being said, it is so slight it’s so far only registered when looking at the map in Warzone. It otherwise has not affected my play. The short-throw trigger setting is great for any repeated with the trigger motion (e.g., semi-auto shooting). The paddles let me crouch and jump while aiming in CoD like the PC players, replace my stick presses for added finesse in NHL, and make some fun paddle shifters in Forza. Definitely a fun addition to my One X and happy to know it is forward compatible for the transition to the Series X. If you have the money to burn, it’s a fun addition, but not a necessity.
