Doesn't do even come with the black wireless RF USB adapter. (+$25) unless you want to connect via Bluetooth.
I bought 3x Xbox robot white wireless controllers from Costco for $30 each and found that price to be just right.
$140 for this controller, Lulz
The value of this controller is highly subjective, like many luxury tech items.
Personally I really value the paddles, hair triggers, different analog stick lengths, the weight/feel of the controller, and the rechargeable battery built in (with charging dock). 🤷 ♂️

If the above features are important to you (like for competitive FPS gaming), this is one of the only wireless controllers that has those, and the others cost the same if not more.
That being said, I had to buy 4 of these things before I got one without defects. And I'm not confident this one will last, but I got it at Costco so no risk. I would happily vote with my wallet and get something else, but defects aside this is still the best controller you can get.

I could almost forgive them and give this a chance if those issues led to a more durable, higher quality product(growing pains, fixing mistakes), but it seems to me like they don't care to fix it at all, and see these as the kind of product that makes them a ton of extra money that people with the kind of money to buy these things will just buy another one. They aren't built to last it seems.
I'm sure there are some who have had theirs for a long time and they are perfectly fine even to this day, but they appear to be a rarity amongst all the other comments saying they've had to replace their controllers multiple times. Can only hope they fix it with "elite series 3" or whatever, but I'm not holding my breath.

These controllers are better than the basic models. That makes it worth it to those of us with no sense.

In all seriousness, have you never played a game where you regularly need to tap 3-4 of the top face controllers? How do you maneuver your fingers if you need to simultaneously push more than one of them? Learning to play with paddles just takes your gaming to a whole other level.
