Microsoft makes some great feelings controllers, only complaint I have is the bumpers wore out after a while.

Love this remote. It works great and the price is amazing

Good controller overall, have had one before and enjoyed as well.

I almost forgot how great it was playing with a paddle controller! No need to take your thumbs off of the joysticks anymore! This controller is amazing! It is a bit heavy, but you get used to the weight very quickly. I love that it does not have to have the batteries replaced and you can just set it on the charger in the case to charge it up. The customization options are great as well. It comes with different height and style joysticks, and the standard D-pad if you prefer that. You can also adjust the tensions for both joysticks which is awesome. I love everything about this controller! I only wish it came in more colors! If you've never played with a paddle controller, you are missing out! This is probably better than a Scuff controller and a bit cheaper too!

Personally, I think this is way better than the first elite controller. Feels so much more quicker, smoother and more grippy for intense moments for FPS games.

I’ve had this controller for 13 months and it’s still going strong… no stick drift and the sticks still click down when pressed. I bought the 2 year replacement warranty and don’t see any need to replace it yet. The previous version of these controllers didn’t last this long, I would need to replace them within a year. I use it almost every day, for hours at a time.

This will be my 3rd elite controler. I love them and for the way i play i get 4 years out of it.

Smooth tactile buttons. Great feeling rubber grips and lighter than the original Elite controller.

No matter how much I tweaked the thumbstick tension and spent time "breaking in the sticks" or adjusting thumbstick curves in settings, it just never gave me the level of responsiveness that some stock controllers do (Dualshock 4, Dual Sense, Gamesir G7, Wolverine v3 TE, 8bitDo Ultimate 2). AND those controllers are a fraction of the price. It's unfortunate because the feel of this controller is above and beyond all others. It has a nice weight and overall feel in the hands. The back paddles are also excellent. It's just a shame that the actual responsiveness does not match.

My nephew loved this controller. He said the wired version allows him to make quicker moves

This controller works perfectly no problem only thing i wish they still came with the paddles and carrying case like the older elite series 2 did other it was worth the money

This is a great rechargeable controller option for Xbox. I do wish that the paddles were included with each controller. It seems like a miss to charge extra for those on the side. Controller performs well, and had great battery life.

Great to purchase if you already have the paddles and charging case for the elite 2.

Absolutely love this controller. Got it as a birthday gift just as my previous one was quitting on me. Wife was able to order and pickup with ease.

Sick of it. Firstly, the stick tension is uneven. There is always one side that has more slack than the other, and there's a slight deadspace that is taken that you can feel it gently dragging before engaging the track pad. Secondly, the button registration. This was my 3rd try at the elite 2 since it came out and I'm done. The A button in particular (sometimes others as well) WILL NOT register soft presses that aren't directly over the button. They have curved buttons, it doesn't work out well. You have to Mash the buttons if you want consistency. If you play for hours at a time this starts to hurt your thumb joints. The buttons also have varying tension as well. The one I got had a stiff X button while the others weren't. Does that sound premium to you? Just stick with the regular controller. It's very reliable and was well tested before manufacturing, these not so much. They need to figure it out

Love being able to have 3 saved game set ups and the push of a button. The paddles on the back make games like call of duty and destiny much easier to play.

Okay, so I've never had an elite style controller before, but after awkwardly attempting to multitask in games with a regular controller, i decided to bite the bullet and buy this thing. The last two controllers i had were regular and didn't last long. I've only had it for about a week but it is AMAZING. The extra controls allow me to do multiple things at once and I don't think I'll ever go back to a basic controller. This works flawlessly. It feels great in your hands, customization is a breeze, and mapping is very easy. The battery lasts a really long time, too. I fully charged it before using it and I play around 12hrs a day, and the battery life barely lost a bar after a week. I know these are notorious for having issues, but mine has none. I will only update my review if I start to have issues. I received it on 5/17/2020, so if I haven't updated with any issues, you can safely assume it's still working perfectly! Highly recommend!!

This controller is way better than the controller that comes with the console. I like how u can set the triggers up. And add triggers. A must have

First and foremost, the build quality is exceptional. From the moment you hold it, the Elite Series 2 exudes durability and sophistication. The matte finish feels premium in hand, and the rubberized grips provide a reassuring hold during even the most intense gaming sessions. It's evident that Microsoft has paid meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring that every component feels solid and well-crafted.

I played with regular controller my entire life and swapped to this and let me tell you - BUY IT! Huge difference in my performance and it’s super easy
