    Awesome Xbox controller unfortunately, I’m glad I got the geek squad warranty. One of my buttons was not properly working and I took it in for an exchange hassle free I would’ve gave you a five star review of this on me

    A very good controller for all around gaming. You don’t need to be a pro league gamer to get enjoyment out of this controller, the paddles allow so much versatility for so many different types of players. The small form factor and high quality materials make it sit easy and comfortable in the hands, and the long battery life will keep you playing for days. The customization potential is endless with the Xbox devices app (which can be downloaded on pc as well) which gives those who are tinkers full reign. Those who would rather just “set it and forget it” also have many great preset options.

    Looking at Scuf or Battle Beaver? Get this!

    This controller is amazing I absolutely love it! I was looking at scuf and battle beaver since that’s what pros use but then I stumbled upon this on Reddit and so I pulled the trigger wow! The quality is great it feels very premium. So many adjustments you can make from mapping the buttons or paddles to adjusting tension on the sticks. You can remove and use different sticks or DPAD with a quick pull. It comes with a very nice carrying case for when on the go and so you can take care of your $175 controller haha. You do have to download like 3 Microsoft apps on the computer to do that though and that is slightly annoying and makes it difficult for the average person that doesn’t know what they’re doing. Pros: -premium materials -interchangeable buttons and sticks -adjust tension of sticks and trigger tolerances -comes with a nice case to hold everything -paddles Cons: - It is nice but it is also $175 lol an Xbox is $299 so you are buying another Xbox haha kind of cray Overall I would definitely tell people to buy this And I would say it’s a good investment if you play competitive shooters like COD. It does take some getting used to. You’re gonna keep trying to hit the buttons becsuse you’ve always played like that but once you are trained you will play a lot better since you don’t have to take your hands of the sticks and away from aiming to jump reload switch weapons and lay down. I map mine right too paddle: reload Left top paddle: switch weapons Button left: jump Bottom right: lay down/crouch. I hope this helps.

    If you’re reading this, you most likely need a little perspective on if this is worth buying. From my experience and comparisons to other “pro-gamer” type controllers, this is hands down the best in terms of feel and gameplay. Quality for me has been an issue with stick drift and shoulder buttons over several controllers. I hate to say it, but I love this controller so much, I have a backup waiting in a box. 2-3 hours a night of gaming for 8+ months and I usually start to see symptoms of failure. The options are to go with Geek Squad protection for which provides a same day replacement, or send it off to Microsoft for the 1 year warranty. Or both. It really is a great controller. I’d recommend protection or having a 2nd on deck in the event your primary goes down.

    Excellent this controller is very nice to hold and has a very long battery life. The trigger stoppers are also very nice as well. This controller also has extra back buttons which is a nice thing have. Would by again.

    Worth 139.99? Yes

    Caught this controller on sale for 139.99 and I am recommending it on that price. Aesthetically, the controller is awesome. Full rubberized front and back handles, not that ‘faux” gripped like on the series X controller either. Interchangeable sticks and wheelpad( Change that thing ASAP, it sucks!). Honestly would have preferred another set of the rubberized sticks instead of the variations that come with it (I also don’t see how to purchase OEM ones separately). Controller body and trigger rumble is great, although the PS5 dual sense haptic feedback is awesome and I like it more. But, the feel of this controller is just top notch. Coming from PS5 to series X, I bought this controller and used it right away. So in comparison to the default series X controller, this one beats it no contest. The long lasting rechargeable built in battery, the premium feel, the resistance modifier for the analog sticks, and the customizable paddles change it for me. I keep trying to tap the paddles when I play PS5 to no avail. It might seem expensive to buy but after using it, it will be hard to play with the regular series X one. I haven’t had any of QC issues the original elite series had. The case it comes with is also a charging dock, so you can plug the USB C to the case and lay the controller on top after moving to the side the felt cloth layer.

    It's a recent generation xbox controller, so it can easily connect to your windows pc without the need of a dongle. The back buttons... on the back... are a life-changer. I would personally have a hard time going back to a controller without back buttons. You can customize the back buttons -and I think the general buttons too- however you want. You can have up to 4 back buttons in total and they are all removable. So if you are unsure about using them all at once, you can simply ease into it. The price is expensive, so make sure to properly think if you want such a product, but it is cheaper than getting the xbox core controller and the separate accessories. Great to play on your xbox or if you like to use controllers for your pc, it is easy to do so.

    I love my elite controller. You can customize it for gaming to your liking. It doesn’t come with a case and extra like the other one. However if you don’t want to spend the extra or just don’t have it. This one is the next best thing.

    This my 2nd purchase of an elite series 2 Xbox controller, and I am happy to report that my expectations were met again. My first one was a customized controller purchased through Microsoft….at any rate, I am now the proud owner of two elite series 2 controllers to pair with my Series X console…..I am satisfied, and I would recommend the elite series 2 controllers.

    This controller is what I've been wanting for the longest time as it offers wireless charging and not needing a battery back. It is easy to customize the controls, triggers, and paddles. It is also nice to have 3 different profiles, if you want to use it as a normal controller you just make sure the profile icon is off. When the profile is off that's the only normal way to take screenshots, so seeing a designated button would be much better.

    Only thing is paddle placement and looseness

    Overall, a very decent controller for the price there’s only marginal stick drift and the build is solid. It’s a heavy controller. I like that you can customize the light of the Xbox button to any color you want nice feature, and obviously the tuning of the controller is very good in the app on the Xbox the Microsoft controller plays best with Game Pass on PC and console The only thing is the paddle placement they get loose It’s hard to slide cancel in Call of Duty for example

    First and foremost, let's talk about the design. Microsoft has really outdone themselves with the Elite Series 2. The controller feels premium in hand, with a sturdy construction that exudes durability. The textured grips not only provide a comfortable feel during extended gaming sessions but also ensure a secure grip, even during intense gameplay. As an avid gamer, I'm always on the lookout for tools that can take my gaming experience to the next level. The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller is one such device that has truly impressed me. From its sleek design to its customizable features, this controller is a game-changer in every sense.

    I bought this so I never had to take my fingers off the thumb sticks. Works great for this can map the 4 paddles to any buttons on the controller. And they are at your fingertips this said the controller is awesome. The battery lasts for every long gaming session I have charge it every night when I go to bed. I use the Xbox Stereo headset with this and it still has no problem. Only thing I would of asked was a smaller price tag.
