    I love the feel of the controller. What stops it from being great is the delay in the A button. It's still the best Xbox controller out there.

    Yeah, it's a little pricey but worth it. You get to customize the button layout and assign 4 paddles for the XYAB. If you have another Elite controller, the parts can be swapped out.

    I had the original MS elite controller and THIS is how it should have been. My old one’s grips were coming off, the stick drift was crap, and the bumpers broke twice....so far this one seems a bit sturdier and the grips seem more integrated...we’ll see if it sustains

    I love this remote ! The main reason to buy it was because I play CoD, and sadly my thumb gets tired for running, with this remote that pain is not a problem anymore. I was able to modify the bottoms wherever I needed to be.

    Its a really good controller but it wont let you mal the buttons theyre preset to the ABXY of the actual controller. I wanted one that could map out whatever button i wanted. But everything else abt it is great

    The only problem with this elite controller is that they seem to still have not done anything about the subpar left and right bumpers. They are just cheap plastic. Everything else is great quality, serious improvement over the first series. Feels better all around.

    It’s a great controller. Takes some getting use too. The only advantage is that it feels more premium and you get the extra buttons. I returned it and just got a regular controller.

    Used to play on my pc. Had to buy a Xbox wireless receiver didn’t work with built in Bluetooth. So if using on pc you will have to buy one. But other than that, it works really good. A must buy. I have about 150 hours so far gaming, no problems.

    The removable paddle,d-pad, and thumb grips are nice and the trigger locks are cool. But 2 months in and i got bad stick drift. Customer sevice for 1 year warranty that comes with it is arguably the worst part of this whole thing . That alone makes the controller not worth it honestly. I like the feel and weight and the portable charging dock with the controller . All in all decent controller but i think im a try the scuff controller next
