    It does not feel as well built as the Elite, but I like it more. The buttons on the back are nice. The adjustable trigger pull gets way shorter than the Elite. I do wish that had more than 2 settings on it though. A mid length pull would be nice.

    Paddles are in more comfortable postion for me than the elite controller. Didn’t think I’d like the trigger stops but feel like they make me quicker maybe its all in my head.

    I love the feel of this controller but in 10 days the right stick is drifting up so much that I have to hold down constantly. I would expect better quality for $250.

    I love this--- it is everything I would like in a controller. First of all, it is very sturdy -- no squeaky noises like the usual “affordable” ones I buy elsewhere, grips firmly, and feels very durable. The feel on the hand is perfect while the rubber surface and the texture is nice to hold. It does not feel odd to grip, even though it is not an OEM Xbox controller. In fact, it really feels comfortable. Connectivity is great too. I just plugged it in my PC and it recognizes it. On Epic Games, even if I unplug it, as long as there is the battery of course, it still works perfectly without any lag. On other streaming services though I have to keep it plugged in. But it is fine because the cord is nicely made too and seems very durable. Audio Jack is great, and is expected for this device. I click on the main Xbox button and it pulls up my Xbox profile plus the settings without any set up. It also has remappable profiles with some preset buttons. The back buttons though—it does take some getting used to. I just can’t map them as jump buttons yet, because I accidentally press them when I panic. But they are good extra buttons to have. The triggers too have a quick fire setting or a gradual press setting which is perfect for driving games. What I like most about it is the durability of it. I know I have only had it for a couple of days—but the fact that I can change the thumbsticks and remove the D pad gives me comfort that this controller will last me, even if I play more than 4 hours a day, for months. I am sure, once I get more used to the extra buttons and its fully customizable mappings, I will always have more Battle Royales!
