    It has taken me a while to get used to having 4 paddles in the back. But a great controller!

      Hey there,

      We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller! Once you've gotten used to gaming with the back paddles, you may find that you can't go back to a regular controller. But if they're ever getting in the way during a certain game, you can also remove them or "lock" them. For information on locking the paddles on your Elite, go here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/accessories/how-to-lock-paddles-elite-controller

      Hope that helps,

    It is a very nice controller that offers a decent amount of customization but ultimately it’s pretty pricey so I’m not sure it’s worth it.

    Gaming is a major hobby of mine and the normal xbox controllers just weren't cutting it. I got a great deal on this one and couldn't be happier. You can adjust sensitivity, different controller pick up points, and just about anything else you'd like plus has 2 modes so it can be programmed for different games or more than one person. Very good unit for a hardcore gamer. Wouldnt recommend for the casual gamer due to price of this one, thats the only downside.
