    The ability to change the cord when it gets damaged is fame changing. The issue woth other corded controllers is the inabioity to ecchange the cord when it gets damaged. Also makes ot easy to transigtion from Xbox to PC. The mapping function is easy and having the chat volume and headphone volume make controlling audio a breeze. Quality is good.

    Very comfortable to hold and easy to use, the different buttons on the controller makes it easier to control what I do in game without have to worry about pulling up an Xbox menu or having to take my focus off from the game

    This controller is amazing. The eq setup, the sound enhanced features the feel, the convenience of layout and features is just too good to pass up. If u want a controller made for shooter this is the beast to pick up. The pro aim button and changable sensitivity if the right thumb stick is mind blowing i cant believe the elite controller doesn't have these features. For just 60 bucks u get a ergonomic controller with coling grips, changeable sound profiles, button layouts, pro-aim, chat mix and whole lot more trust me this baby is worth the $$

    Really excellent controller. It feels well made. It has extra buttons. The cord is very long and wrapped so seems like it will hold up. I am very happy with it. Highly recommend.

    Good Elite Style Controller

    The controller works as advertised...better than normal first party controllers. Cheaper than an actual elite controller and less customizeable than a first party elite. (Only two buttons) but I've had it for a few months and haven't broken a bunper from normal use (unlike the last 2st party controller I bought.) This has been a good controller so far.

    Good solid controller. No issues on PC or Xbox, connection was easy. Button response on par with standard Xbox controller. Not as responsive as elite controllers. I will buy again.

    Awesome affordable enhanced controller. Sticks have held up well with little to no stick drift. Love the voice controls and multiple mode settings. For the price it’s one of the best controllers on a budget. I just wish it had trigger locks and would have been beyond awesome!

    I bought this because the two Xbox brand controllers I returned had sticky buttons and the blutooth is unreliable. I have not used any of the extra functions on this unit but I love the grippy handles and long braided cord. I play racing games and would rather have a chord than the unreliable location freedom of wireless. I also like buying from a well established company that gets into something new because you can get a great value even if they miss some things on their first try.
