    More durable than the elite 2 though a little lighter and it doesnt come with the case paddles sticks and d pad, those extras would net you the same price for the whole bundle anyway plus colors. Ive been abusing this thing on multiple high intensity games for a while and no broken bumpers or anything. Sticks arent aligned right though. So micro adjustments are hard but using the tall stick/controlfreeks fixes this for the most part. Now my hand doesnt cramp playing claw and of course double the control over everything 9/10

    A Hefty Controller

    While I don't really think it's worth the full price, I got it on sale and used certificates to lower its cost even further, it's definitely an awesome controller. It's a solid, good-weighted controller. The grip texture around the entire grips is great. It just feels really good in your hands. Being able to tighten the tension on the control sticks, swapping out the sticks or the D-Pad for the other ones, all super easy to do. My one complaint is the lack of the share button the newer Series X/S controllers have. Since I got this after having one of those controllers, I definitely notice it missing. If they would patch an update to be able to remap the "preset switch" button to be the share button, this would be the perfect controller in my opinion, but for those who don't use the share button that often it's already at that perfect level.

    Ive been using this controller now for about a month. I love it and i also loved the first one. I got the Geek Squad Warranty on the first so i returned it for store credit and picked up this bad boy. First let me start off by saying that THANK GOD it has a internal battery build it. The first one didnt and they annoyed me, how are you gonna charge me over $100 for a controller and not have a battery pack. ANYWAYS, i like that the Ver 2 you can adjust the Tension on the sticks. I also like that the hair triggers, this is a game changer for FPS. The back panels on this ver are smaller than Ver1 (not much) and a different color. I enjoy mapping these to different buttons and i feel it gives me an edge when using them. That being said ...i got used to it and tried to use a regular controller it throws me off. Over all id say this is a buy if you have the extra money, you can probably get the same customizations with Scuff but i just prefer to get Xbox stuff. Also PLEASE get the geek squad Protection plan. The sticks started to go on my Ver1 and they gave me a brand new one no questions. I just had to purchase another geek squad plan for that one as well! Good Luck

    Best controller I've ever owned

    Great build quality and excellent battery life. I'm also thankful that you can easily remove the hair triggers from underneath as I have a tendency to accidentally hit them when playing. Comes with a nice little docking station too for charging. I feel they should release another version without the stand, hair triggers, extra sticks/D-pad, and case and it would drop the price significantly. The difference between this and the regular Xbox controller is so significant it seems there should be a product in the middle. In any case, this is simply the best PC gamepad you can buy right now however it DOES NOT come with the USB wireless adapter so you have to purchase that separately. I already had one so it wasn't a big deal for me but I can expect some people to be very upset when they pay that amount of money and then can't use it wirelessly on their PC.

    I bought the Microsoft Elite Series 2 wireless controller to play some games on my PC and Xbox. It's a pretty good controller, but not perfect. The design is sleek and comfortable, and the buttons are responsive and customizable. The battery life is also impressive, lasting for hours on a single charge. However, I have some issues with the durability and the price. The controller feels a bit fragile, and I'm worried it might break easily. The price is also quite high, especially compared to other controllers on the market. Overall, I think it's a decent controller for gaming, but not worth the hype.

    GREAT! BUT Do Not Buy without GeekSquad Protection

    While the Elite controllers are far superior to the regular ones, they are still full of wearing parts, and prone to being dropped or mistreated. We had a teen boy in the house, and had the first version of the Elite controller, and so we got the GeekSquad protection thinking we wouldn't use it, but it's not that expensive so what the heck. I can not tell you how many times the GeekSquad plan has saved the day. I think that first series controller got replaced 3 times before the series 2 came out! Now that the series 2 was released, people are discovering problems with it. SO, that's even more reason to get that GeekSquad protection on it! I think this controller is like version 2 of series 2 in the Elite controller lineup or something like that, and they may have worked out all the problems, but I think it's still better safe than sorry. So I'd say get that GS protection on it, otherwise the Elite is a waste of money as it will most likely break at some point.

    My grandson dropped it the first day, and buttons fell off -- but the surprise was when the buttons easily reattached magnetically.
