My 2nd controller already
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've already made an exchange to this controller once due to the A button working sometimes, and I may have to do it again. It's almost as if you have to press the button with a bit more force for confirmation, which is a no go for me. I googled this issue, and others are having similar problems. I didn't get the Best Buy warranty the first purchase, but got it after my first exchange because I don't want to take a chance with a $180 controller that was poorly made. I highly recommended the warranty, or just wait for Microsoft to improve this product. On a side note, the original Elite Series was perfect, and it still works despite the joystick cover wearing off after years of use.

I would recommend this to a friendElite Controller
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent controller love the color white, glad it came out white version
I would recommend this to a friendExpensive but feels like it.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the 1st gen and unlike many, never had any problems at all. Played a lot of hours and eventually wore out the coating on a thumb stick. This is similarly nice and expensive feeling but has usb c for faster/easier charging and it also has Bluetooth. This is especially nice for use with a PC because you don’t need that adapter that older Xbox One Controllers needed to pair with a gaming computer. It will also work with the upcoming Xboxes for this fall so your purchase is future proof.
