    So far so good. It works nicely. I have had the elite 1 one for years and still works. I saw this one on sale and bought it. It is a night and day difference between the this one and the original elite controller.

    Time will tell on the grips but it’s already way better than the 1rst version with the built in battery and included chargers and a good battery life. While not as precise as I like in the joysticks they are very good. Triggers are great with more adjustability than previous version. Overall I’d say much better deal than version one even though it cost more, if the grips don’t fall off that is, which they shouldn’t.

    If you need a top of the like controller this MIGHT be it. Its good sturdy, long battery, and feels good but it can tend to get stick drift not in the normal way but that the sticks work so well that the slightest touch and youll keep drifting when having your finger rest on it

    The controller is sturdy, responsive, works great. The new design that uses rechargeable batteries and included charging stand, is a much improved feature over prior generation that used a cable to power the device. Prior design also ran on alkaline batteries, but constantly had to replace them, costly. The rechargeable batteries last long time between charges. No cons with the new design. Little pricey, but worth it. Make sure to purchase extended warranty, helps reduce replacement cost down the line.

    The bumpers were completely changed and should no longer be a issue like it was for me by returning 3 of the 1st version because of bumpers breaking. Seems the whole casing is made of a high density rubberized plastic so no more problems with grips peeling off. That was a problem I never experienced. Clicky buttons. Some people prefer that, some dont. Im just glad the took care of the cheaply constructed bumpers from the previous version. These bumpers are solid! ALL IN ALL: Great controller. Dont forget to update the drivers.

    This was a great replacement for my broken controller. There have been no issues so far and it works how its supposed to. I use it for use on the computer and would recommend if someone needs a good controller.

    I upgraded from the Elite controller version 1... I love the textured grip where your palms rest, as well as the additional accessories you get vs the Series 1. For example. there's now a 360 style pop on joystick that's noticeably bigger/rounder than Xbox One's and I LOVE IT! I've missed the bigger/larger sticks so getting this back is welcomed. I just wish they'd make the 360 larger sticks with the textured grip on the rim of it like the Xbox One's sticks so I could have the best of both world's lol. No complaints though!

    Much better build quality than Series 1

    I returned my Series 1 multiple times to Microsoft for grips that kept falling off. I bought Series 2 and am glad they fixed all the mistakes made with the first edition. This model has a built in battery that lasts over 35 hours on a single charge (Been playing Borderlands 3 with it since Christmas) and the grips are no longer glued but a part of the controller itself. It's more expensive than Series 1, but that's because of the amazing built in battery. Strongly recommended if you're a hard core gamer that plays a ton!

    It works well but the A button is intermittent already after only a couple of months of light use (8-12 hours a week). No issues with the grips yet like the first elite. The elite series 2 joysticks do work so that's a plus.

    If ur a Gamer u will love this controller I certainly do. I have to say the two best things are being able u switch the joy sticks to a bigger size with sting magnetic seal so u don't have to worry about it just popping off, Makes a big difference when playing games like Call of duty or fortnite. The other thing is the built-in battery with type c charger. No more changing batteries or having to buy a battery pack, plus it lasts much longer than any thing out there.

    Amazing, best controller on the market, I owned the previous elite and used on my PC. I now have a series x and wanted another controller to stay with that system, everything on this new controller is upgraded and just a little better then the previous model. Love that the battery pack is now integrated and come with a wireless charging cradle. Got my series 2 on Sale at Best Buy for same price I paid for my original elite despite upgrades.
