    Don't get scared by the price. This is worth it for any serious gamer. The Xbox one S controller is good. The elite takes it to another level. Your hands will feel very comfy with all the customizations you can do!

    This controller feels and looks like a quality product. Being able to change the triggers to quick fire makes you just a bit faster in shooters. I also like being able to make my right joystick a bit longer.

    I'm not a professional gamer by any means, but I've been doing it all my life. The paddles on the Elite controller allow me to hokey convent buttons/triggers that make my games more enjoyable. For example, say that I'm playing The Witcher 3. When I'm fighting I like to have full control of the camera, which means pressing the standard action buttons is a little less than ideal. With the triggers I can completely control my view with the right stick without having to worry about losing fluidity. My only gripe would be it can sometimes be too easy to press down a trigger when I set the controller in my lap or on an uneven surface. Overall I highly recommend the Elite controller.

    It feels solid in your hands the rumble function is smooth I can't say any thing bad about the custom features 3 sets of thumb sticks giving you more control and being a fan of shooter games the hair triggers are invaluable. Oh I love the case it comes with. If you have an Xbox one you need this product, it lifts your game to elite status.

    I love the weight of this controller and how it feels. It is too hard to play with the original controllers now. I would highly recommend buying one. Awesome features with it.
