Best controller ever
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The new design is a huge upgrade. Extra adjustments and a new grip! Definitely worth a cop.
I would recommend this to a friendMuch better the 2nd time around
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a marked improvement over the previous model but is still without its issues. Mainly it randomly disconnects from Bluetooth while playing any game on PC. There is no rhyme or reason that I can tell, but its been a know issue since launch. There doesn't seem to be any part of Microsoft that wants to acknowledge the issue either. I've been told by their support to buy the Xbox controller wireless adapter, which in my opinion is unacceptable. For a nearly $200 peripheral that has a wireless technology built in that should allow me to play, the fix should not be to buy another $30 part. Other than that the upgrades they did to this controller are far better than before. The controller grips are one piece now so it shouldn't separate and fall apart like the last one. Also the bumper design has been retooled so the broken bumpers shouldn't be an issue anymore. Hopefully the push a firmware fix for the connection issues soon because having the controller flake out during a game is very annoying.

Feels like an elite controller.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feels like an elite controller. I was happy to purchase this at a discount. It works very well. Feels expensive and smooth. That is just out of the box. It has multiple triggers you can add as well as different knobs.

Probably best PC controller out there.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good controller. I dare say better than a scuf and way more durable.
I would recommend this to a friend Worthy Upgrade to 1st Elite Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Having the first one, I could not imagine Microsoft topping the 1st Elite Controller. I have to say, I am impressed with their new incarnation. The even more adjustable triggers are very helpful in CoD type games. I like the extra slot for a setting and overall quality, for example, the grips are much better. I highly suggest this controller for anyone who wants to get the most out of their gaming experience.
