This is a quality xbox controller. From the weight of the controller, to the mappable buttons to the swappable sticks and paddles, this controller is very nice. Now, for the price, you could buy 2+ regular controllers, but I think if you're a serious gamer, then this will be worth the money.

This controller is top of the line. The responsiveness is insane. Download the app and configure your controller how ever you want. The 4 paddles in the back can be assigned to any bottom. Can’t imagine playing shooters with out it.

This controller is awesome. The better build quality is immediately noticeable, and the paddles on the back for using the buttons without taking your fingers off the sticks are great. It is a pricey controller but if you can afford it I absolutely recommend it.

Very pricy It’s 30.00 less than a new Xboxone S but hands down the best Xbox or PC controller out. Inner changeable sticks and pad/paddles. Configurable buttons and quick shot locks for the triggers. Must have for any serious console gamer.

Best controller I’ve ever purchased for Xbox. Very customizable from thumb stick height to trigger pull distance. Extra paddles for back of controller can be set up for any button.

For some reason all of my 360 controllers were better than the standard Xbox One controller. So I decided to get the 'Elite' controller.
The rubber grip starts peeling of just after 2 months using the controller. Good to have that 2 year replacement plan - Microsoft only trusts this thing to last for 90 days which is shameful for a $150 product.
Now for the good stuff: The Elite controller is heavier and lays better in your hand than the standard controller. It also supports additional controls (up to 4 of them) on the bottom of the controller and you can change the d-pad standard 4 directional to a more precise 8 directional.
I still think that with all the additional features and better handling it is way too expensive for what it has to offer - particularly in light of the very short 90 days warranty M$ offers. So in order to protect your investment get the 2 year plan.

Controller works well. It’s a bit heavy and I recommend a recharging station because it uses batteries quickly.

It's a great controller it is still on the pricy side though and I don't use the paddles on the back. But I will eventually.

I love having the extra paddles on the elite controller! It definitely takes some getting used to but makes gameplay in all different styles of gaming easier. I don't think it's really worth $150 but I'm glad I took the plunge on mine.
