Much improved from V1
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was leery to pick up another expensive controller since the v1 grips peeled on mine. It has been a few months of average use and I see much improvement. It feels great in my hand, grips are a little light but I’ve had no issues with it slipping. Battery life is good and I enjoy the new charging station. I really don’t use the back buttons all that much so I won’t speak in their function. The triggers are smooth but again not all games recognize the short trigger pulls. Overall it’s a great controller that is more of a luxury item over a need. If you have the funds, go for it. If not, you won’t miss a lot

Great Quality
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I feel this has a little more weight to it than the previous model. The button to change configuration (center button) does move as much when you press it which through me off a little as

I would recommend this to a friend Good Purchace
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive been using elite controlles since the first edition. I play primalrily fps titles as well as Smite competitively. Other than the weight of the elite controllers, ive enjoyes them. They're comfortable and versatile. Paddle options and custimization are very good and the overall quality of the build is pretty good. Had it not been for me dropping my controllers fairly regularly, i wouldn't have to replace them. Overall, very good contriller.

Greatest Controller Ever
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller provides me the edge I need to decimate the 12 year old punks that like to hurl the n word at me with reckless abandon. I used to have nothing to say because of how badly these young assassins would kill me, but now thanks to this controller I can talk back to them with Yo Momma jokes and about how promiscuous their mother's and sister's are. Now I feel like a big man when I play video games because now I can win on the field of battle and in the trash talking game and send those prepubescent punks crying back to mama and it is all thanks to this controller.

Xbox Elite controller
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this controller! Is one of the main reasons why I’m on Xbox ! As it has some weight to it

Best one so far
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What can you say about it, if you play on pc or console then you already know this is by far one of the best controllers to get. I would recommend this to anyone, but it's only fault is the dreaded stick drift. It may happen in a few weeks or years but it does happen. Once they add magnetic sticks, this will be the perfect controller but till then its nearly perfect.

Best Controller but get get protection plan
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best controller if you are using steam on your PC I would advise to get the protection plan, xbox controllers can stop working for no reason (according to some reddit posts) or stick drift and this one is no exception something that has not happened till this day with my ps4 ps5 and switch controllers on my pc, mines has not had issues so far, but I can say by far its the best controller I own
