    I personally love this controller. The ability to program buttons and change the button press on triggers is perfect. I do wish it was cheaper.

    This controller is a great step up from the previous version, but quality control issues have begun to plague the usability. The A button is not responsive, the RB button either doesn't respond or it double presses when you tap it. Trying to get a replacement with my replacement plan is a nightmare since its never in stock in store and customer service can't help me either.

    I loved and still love the first Xbox Elite Controller; however, this controller filled my need for wireless as well as more adjustability. The only reason this controller is not getting the 5th star, because the extra back buttons are much smaller than the original. Making it sort of awkward to use all 4, but this could change after a while of usage.

    I'd give this more stars if I could. There's not enough good things to say, the price is a little scary, but we'll worth it.

    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.
