Great but a little pricey
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its the best controller ive ever had, however the price is very steep. Ive had some really amazing controllers just below this one in my rankings, and the prices were very different. I wish it were just a bit Cheaper.
I would recommend this to a friend Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the design of the controller and the comfort. The only draw back is after a while the sensors stick and needs cleaning or in my case, just bought another controller. I haven’t found a place to have the controller repaired.

Hoping this one lasts more than a year
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The one I had previously only lasted a year and a half which, of course, is outside of warranty. I'm hoping this one does better because I like how solid it is and the case it comes with. It also seems to have a better connection with my xbox than other controllers.

Buy this and don't look back
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feels polished, well put together and durable. Compared to the cheap Amazon controllers, the Xbox Elite blows them all out of the water. Is it worth 3 or 4 times more than that no-brand controller? Absolutely. You won't know what you're missing until you've tried this. Find a demo and you'll know exactly what I mean as soon as you pick it up.

- Cons mentioned:Stick drift
Somehow, I prefer regular controllers.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The build quality is awesome and it’s a beautiful piece of technology, but there are several fundamental flaws that still have not been completely fixed in this second generation of elite series controllers. Within days I was experiencing: -Stick drift -dropped connection mid-game -delayed response in left stick input (visually confirmed in the Xbox accessories app) For this price, I would absolutely expect this controller to be perfect. Instead, I got an absolutely gorgeous controller with a lot of problems. They may not be noticeable to a casual gamer, but what casual gamer is buying a $180 controller? Three stars because I’m having it replaced and I’m hoping I just got an exceptionally bad copy. If it’s another dud, 1 Star for sure.

Great Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller, much better than the one that came with the Xbox. One thing to notice is that at first it was behaving weirdly with my MacBook and when I connected it to the Xbox it updated and solve the MacBook issues.

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller thus far after a few weeks has none of the problems the other controllers have displayed. Usually these guys have bumpers that stop registering, or face buttons that get sticky but this unit has had none of that. Hopefully it continues.

Nice but wish it lasted longer.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice controller. A little pricey for a controller that lasts on average a year for me and my family. Not that it is bad, just for me paying that much every year kind of sucks.
