Xbox One Elite controller is a revamp of its almost two-year-old Controller that shipped with the Xbox One. The diffrence between both controllers is the price elite controller will cost you nearly $160. The company isn't targeting this as a device for the mainstream, though. Rather, the Elite controller is instead for highly competitive gamers .generaly the hardcore gamers mod their controllers with third-party accessories for greater precision. The customization it offers comes at a steep price, costing over twice as much as the standard $60 controller.
Why should you care? Because the vanilla Xbox One controller feels like a cheap knock-off of the vaunted Xbox 360 pad that came before it. Microsoft said it spent over $100 million designing it, considering smell-o-vision and even a built-in projector for the gamepad, only to wind up with a mostly inferior clone. It has too many sharp edges, feels incredibly hollow and seems, well, cheap. Honestly, one of the biggest reasons I don't play Xbox One much as much as PlayStation 4 is because I prefer the Ps4 's DualShock 4 controller.
