Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As expected, performs well, definitely one of the best xbox controllers if not the best. Only slight complaint is the back buttons are a little stiff, just had to get used to them
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Xmas purchase for son in law as he had a corded controller. He plays on line and his old controller was not as fast as it could be as it was a couple of years old. He really loves his new cordless controller and he enjoys his games a lot more now.
I would recommend this to a friendMust buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing controller for the cost. Especially if caught in sale. Recommend ordering from third party for additional button, thumb stick, and paddles

I would recommend this to a friend Excellent controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you're going to game for 3 or more hours a day and have long sessions, the Elite controller is a must. There are cheaper ways to go, but this is an excellent controller.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat option.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good controller. Accustomed to using a Scuff controller which is more versatile. A great option if you're not going custom.
I would recommend this to a friendGood buuuut....
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this controller but just after about a month of actual use, the right joystick has slight drifting.... for something as expensive as this I'd expect the controller to be tougher than this. Ive never experienced this with any of my other xbox one controllers.

Premium in Everyway
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its so premium in everyway. The look at feel of this controller is fantastic and the customizability options are nearly endless. I dont own an xbox and I have only been using it on PC and so far it has been working flawlessly.
I would recommend this to a friendWorth the money
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was deciding on this controller or a scuff. Ultimately this won out for the price and personal preference on the location of the back paddles. I bought this controller to play COD and make use of the hair triggers and back paddles. Best decision I’ve made in a controller.

||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this controller. It has definitely elevated my gaming to the next level in almost every aspect. The only reason I’m giving a 4/5 review is because the left thumbstick on the controller has malfunctioned after only 8 months of owning it.
