Great design, poor execution
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, this controller starts off as a dream. Custom configuration, custom analogs, dpad and paddles beneath the controller (which I take off). The biggest problem comes in with the trigger locks. The whole point of this controller is for shooters. However, the trigger locks depend on a piece of plastic inside that breaks without fail. I am not a spaz on the controller, yet I've had three of these break the trigger locks. With all the quality and here, why did they skimp on the biggest pressure point? Add to that the price you pay...sub par and that's a shame.

It's a solid controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the controller a lot. It feels very good in the hands with the textured grips. The sticks are much better than the standard controller sticks in that they seem to be more responsive to movement and it feels much more fluid. The DPAD seems to be much improved as well and more accurate. The hair trigger function is absolutely essential if you play any sort of shooter game and want that competitive edge against your enemy. The paddles though are hard to get used to. I've tried playing with them several times and find myself hitting them at all the wrong times, but it may be due to how I hold the controller and playing Xbox for years without paddles where they are located. I bet if I got used to it, I could make it work.

great for gamers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased because my other paddles weren't keeping a charge but this paddle is perfect. The shape makes it easy to game. Its not awkward the buttons all feel natural. I would recommend to any serious gamers
I would recommend this to a friend Great upgrade to standard controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this controller so that I could have faster switching when I was gaming. I have been very happy with the performance of this controller and think it's an upgrade that any serious gamer should make. The only issue I've had is the sensitivity of the back switches when it comes to standard Xbox operations. Sometimes I would set down the controller and just the slightest tap on the back switch would cause the XBox to do something. I don't fault the controller for this, but wanted to note it for others to be aware.

Posted .Hey there,
We're glad that you're enjoying the upgraded performance of your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller. If the back paddles are too sensitive when not in use, you have two options: Removing them or locking them.

Hope that helps,
