    Bought this controller for my husband who loves to game. The controller is well made and customizable and comes with a nice sturdy case. It paired easily with his Xbox and already had me purchase a back up, even with the warranty. He uses it every night and had not had any issue with the quality or function of the controller.

    good especislly when playing different game types. swithing sticks for better control when more precision is needed. disc replacing cross makes fighting games more fun and moves easier to execute. under buttons are great for paddle shifters and for access to buttons grnerally accessed from removing finger from sticks. short throw in trigger is great for fps games.

    I use this with my pic and love it. Works for all the games I love to play. And I can also key bind the bottom 4 buttons to what I want them to do.

    This is a great controller, have not run into a single issue and, due to the paddles on the back, allows for quicker reaction times.

    I bought this controller using the Elite trade in with student coupon for $70. This is a heavy duty controller with great build quality. The paddles take a little bit of getting used to. Once you hook it up to your Xbox or PC you should update the controller and set the buttons to your favorite games. I would recommend this to any hardcore gamer.

    This controller completely changed and upgraded my game! With the extra buttons on the back I'm now able to jump, turn, sight in, land, and slide while changing weapons and maintain the sight line to get that amazing headshot while sliding. K/D went through the roof! It's not just the extra buttons, this controller isn't as jumpy as the original. Worth the price! Get the geek squad protection as this is my second one after four months and one drop.

    The controller takes a while to get used, but once you get the shot trigger pulls and bottom buttons down it will improve you gaming experience .

    Controller is excellent quality feeling of a well made product. If never used controller like this there is a learning curve but is excellent for its intended purpose. Must be careful how you sit controller down you can inadvertently press the paddles. Highly recommend product if contemplating competitive style controller purchase.

    I bought this controller because I wanted to have options. I didn't know that I could actually have 2 game profiles set on the controller but that's a great option to have. I also like that there are game profiles already set up in the app and all you have to do is select it (i.e. Forza 6 Manual with clutch). Customizing is easy and switching out the sticks etc. is nice. Overall a great purchase even at twice the price for a normal controller.

    As most review videos state, it is built real well. Got it to bring my gaming to the next level. Even using this without the paddles on, I notice a slight improvement from the standard controllers. Have had it for a month and a half and don't notice any issues. But since I did pay more for this, I do keep it away from my kids and don't just toss it around.

    This controller is such an awesome upgrade. . Comparable to a Scuf controller but quite a bit cheaper. Best used for shooters but can obviously use it for any games. Really adds a little something to your game. Only issue I’ve had is some durability. Have had to replace twice (after roughly a year both times) because of a bad button and stick drift. Always buy a protection plan and you’ll be fine!

    You can tell it a premium controller as soon as you pick it up. Lots of bad reviews saying they break but I'm guessing people are too rough with them. Been using mine for 2 months with zero signs of wear. Dropped it a few times, still no damage. Using this with a cronus max to play on my ps4. I would buy another one if something happened to this one.

    Who knew a controller could make such a difference? I was skeptical when I first picked this up but I had heard really good things about it, and now I've seen first hand. Everything about this controller is precise and it is very nicely weighted. It feels more like an extension of your body than a controller. I consider that a whole new level of success.
