Good controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decided on giving this controller a test. I love the trigger pulls. I don't use the paddles that much as it takes some time to get use to. The interchangeable thumb pads are awesome. I use the longest one to added precision. Only drawback is the lack of a rechargable battery pack. I use rechargable batteries however they need to be taken out and placed in the charger. The energizer rechargable pack used with the normal Xbox one controller do not fit in the elite controller. Hopefully as one company will come up with one soon! This controller will also work with the Astro A40 headset adapter. I initially purchased the Razor wildcat controller but it did not work with the Astro mix amp so it was refunded and I purchased the elite controller. Well worth the extra money IMHO!

Perfect controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best xbox controller in the market. Has a good weight and feel to it. The paddles also give you an advantage in most dps games as to let you jump or crouch while aiming and shooting at the same time.

A solid piece in your hands
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is a must have for the serious gamer. The only downside is the price is a bit much also no rechargeable battery doesn't come with it. Nevertheless, once you have one you wont use your regular controller

Very nice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller has a much better feel than the regular controller. Being a little heavier, it has a solid feel and grip in my hands. The configuration options make it even better and easier to use.

Very nice, a little pricey but worth it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally caved in and bought this after one of my older controllers wore out. I love how well this is built and the customization options that it presents. Its got a more substantial feel to it and I can change the sticks to match my hands and play style. I haven't made much use of the paddles yet but everything easily and securely attaches to the controlled and it comes with a great case to keep things in when you don't need them.

Great controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a really well built and sturdy controller. It is pretty heavy and you can tell it is well built. The quality is great however the new buttons on the underside take a little time to get used to and they sometimes get in the way. Other than that it is a great product.

ELITE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Finally Microsoft does something good for its avid players. The elite controller looks and feels great. The grip and matte finish make the controller easy to handle, four paddles allow for total customization when you use the provided software. Interchangeable analog stick let you get the perfect fit and control for your play sytle. The case and charging cord are just extra bonuses if you ask me great to have if your traveling. At first it will feel heavy due to the aluminium constution.

Awesome Product!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What can I say that hasn't been said. I use it with the wireless USB adapter on my PC without any issues. Feels great in the hands and also feels very sturdy. Well made product that should last a very long time.

Great for a serious gamer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The elite controller feels like should for what it costs. The remapping of the buttons is really nice, and the 4 additional lower buttons are the best thing ever. If you game and play shooters its is a great buy.

Elite controller feels great

A MUST for most gamers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you you want an edge in cod or halo this controller is perfect for you. But for an all around gamer this is also excellent cuz it's customizable and has become my favorite controller I've ever had so far

regarding the ELITE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, that controller, what could I say, the only thing I don't like about the controller is that now (even that I use to love the new Xb1 controller Forza 6 edition) I have to always use the ELITE the option of changing the mapping and assigned to the bottom that you prefer to be where you want the to be, make it so unique and after you install it you can do mapping to all your others controllers plus,plus,plus placing the stick as you want them to be (tall, mid side or even small) your. Choice is a super plus and I can not left out the new Directional bottom going from good to perfect, nothing was left out! I really think this is the best there is! If you are a hardcore gamer you should know what am talking about

the way it should be
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this controller is much better than the standard controller. it feels better, and offers a some buttons on the back that you can use to customize it. $150 is a tough sell but at $99 I would say its a deal

Expensive but worth it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Anyone who has an Xbox One, or PC, and plays a lot of first person shooters or twitch like games that require quick reaction times this is a must have. Probably the greatest controller I've ever used, great build quality, great customization with both the hardware and software, and once you get used to using the paddles your gaming performance may improve (mine feels like it has) and it'll never feel the same going back to a normal controller. Bravo Microsoft, bravo.

Great controller - not the holy grail
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like this controller a lot. It feels fantastic in the hands. The weight is perfect and the material is nice and grippy, even is you sweat. The changeable knobs are awesome too. My only beef with this controller is the price. I honestly don't think it's worth the $150. There's not that much that separates this controller from the satandard controller TBH. If you're desperate to get it, the go ahead, otherwise, I say save your money. My low rating is for low price to value ratio.

A little Pricy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.But in my opinion worth every cent. Construction is superb, and the ability to remap buttons, along with the customization of the paddles and D pad is great. I can see why they are sold out everywhere.

Really, really well-made controller.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has a high price tag, probably too high for the casual gamer, but if you play competitively, or just play a *lot*, this is a solid investment. It feels great in the hands and is very customizable.
