Great controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the controller. It is very durable. It is a little heavy because it is made of metal but I really like the extra weight.

Good controller but last gen
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You get what you pay for with this controller. It's extremely well made and durable and the flippers on the bottom of the controller are actually very nice. However it is an older model controller and anyone who's used a newer controller for the Xbox will understand what I mean. The controller is not as responsive as I'd like especially for this price. I also had random disconnects and buttons that would stick out of nowhere. It's a very nice controller but I'd recommend waiting till the updated model is released eventually.

Best controller ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A bit pricey but feels so much better than the standard controllers. Only issue I have is my cat tries to hide my joysticks from me.

Posted .Hey there,
Thanks for sharing your love for your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller. Be warned, though: Cats are notorious for stealing thumbsticks for their own nefarious purposes. It may be because they lack thumbs themselves. We recommend storing your unused thumbsticks in the handy carrying case that came with your Elite controller in order to foil whatever it is they're plotting.
Happy gaming,

Best feeling controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The feel and weight alone make this controller worth it. But add on the extra capabilities and options and it is the best value controller available.

Expensive, but high quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son uses this, and he loves it. It's very expensive for a controller, but the features are nice and the quality is high.
I would recommend this to a friend Great Accessory
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller is well-built and has more "heft" than the traditional plastic ones. The four paddles on the back can be moved around and interchanged as you see fit. For a guy with bigger hands, I found I was not able to use all 4 paddles, but I was able to live with the top left, top right, and bottom right without issue. They take some getting used to, especially if you have not used paddles before. Adding presets to buttons, swapping profiles, and changing assignments is a breeze with the Xbox Accessories app. All-in-all, I am very happy with my purchase.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat controller for FPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.On my xbox 360 I was using a homemade scuf like controller so I dreaded when I would move to the xbox one cause the configuration of scuf I'd want is just too expensive. This elite controller has all the functionality and configurable options that I was wanting in a scuf. I've been using two for over a year now and have had no issues. My only negative would be that there are no replaceable sticks that have a larger top like some of the kontrol freaks. The long sticks are great, I just wish there was one that had a slightly larger convex top.

best of the best
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.quality build, the extra toggles on the back are cumbersome but you can take them off. wish playstation would put something like this out
I would recommend this to a friend Good Alternative
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I previously owned a scuf that I purchased back in 2015 but it started having problems after a year or two. They wouldn’t fix it because it was “too old” when I sent it in for repairs so I decided to try out the elite controller. I really enjoy the weight of the controller and the customizable features. It would be cool to have more color options but the base matte black looks cool too. A lot of people say that the paddles are uncomfortable, but they fit my hands pretty well.

This controller is crazy good and crazy priced
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this controller but it's really pricey. It's customizable and they do feel good but I could see them going out after a while. You may want to get the protection plan on this one.

Perfect controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For more serious gamers for sure. Key binding and extra paddles on the rear to never take your fingers off the sticks. 100% worth every penny!
