    This controller is made from quality materials, and that is apparent from its weight and durability. I’ve used it a lot, and haven’t had any issues. There are some detachable small pieces so keep your children away.

    Price came down recently so i decided to purchase. Great decision, extra buttons are a must for the competitive edge and the controller feels SOLID

    I really like the Xbox Elite controller. I'm not a heavy duty gamer, but the customization and different stick/pad options are nice. The unit has nice weight and doesn't seem to drift. Hard to say if the price really justifies the upgrade from a standard controller in my case, but if you're a serious gamer I think it would.

    Crack Controller

    Better than the series 1 so far, although I haven't had it long enough to give it a 5 star review. Durability has always been an issue with the elite controllers, but they're like crack for me. I can't game without them anymore. So I need them even if they're overpriced and break. But maybe that's what Microsoft intended?

    Great Controller for Call of Duty

    This is the best controller I’ve gotten in a while! I was hesitant to spend the money for a controller but it was definitely worth it as it is so easy to customize to the kind of player you are. The detachable thumb sticks and paddles are easy to customize for crouching quickly and moving fast in the COD game. The case is sturdy and charging is simple and fast. From what I can read you’ll also be able to use this controller for the upcoming Xbox system so worth the purchase!

    Great controller feels much better than the old elite controller and you can charge it inside the case. Its a bit pricey though you do get a slight edge on people with regular controllers. 4 stars only because I feel like its over priced. Watch out for analog drift heard it happens with these controllers.

    Coming from a 2080 super I'm a little surprised, I thought it was going to be much more impressive. The biggest difference I see is in the frame rate which is obviously a big deal.

    After burning through three elite controllers in as many years thanks to their rubberized grips coming undone, I’m hopeful this new design holds. There is a seam on the inside now, but the stress bubble portion of the outer grips is now solid. I do like the feel of the new triggers better, but my previous ones never gave out so I can only say it’s a minor improvement. Loved my old elites, so if the grips hold up now, I’m sure to love these. So far, really like them.

    It isn't necessarily the cheapest controller you're ever going to buy, but it's better than scuff in my personal opinion, and I do own both, and I would go as far as to say it definitely gives you an advantage in specific games.

    I have never used any other controller other than the standard ones so I didn't know what to expect. I saw it on display and wanted it but it wasn't available at the time so I had to wait and order it and it was worth the wait. A little pricey but it's expected with how neat the controller is. I'm still getting used to the extra buttons. I also like the feeling of it and how my hands have a better grip of the controller.

    I'm wearing this review of somebody that has disabilities in their hand, and I have to say this is one of the most comfortable and versatile controllers I own. They have become a daily driver not only in the game on the Xbox but also on my gaming PC.

    This one of the best controllers on the market. Well worth the price tag of $180 added with the Microsoft wireless adapter for $25. I recently got into gaming on the PC and was previously using a standard Xbox one controller. the difference between the standard and the elite is night and day. More advanced options, slightly heavier, comfortable grips, switchable parts, and a battery life that will last your for a couple of days on a full charge. No complaints yet.

    This is really an elite controller. Very well built and is easy to use. This is cheaper than a custom controller and has every feature that a custom one has. XBox did an excellent job with this.

    I love using the controller. The back paddles are a necessity... They should come standard on all controllers to be honest.... But the the elite isn't built to last ,,this is my 3rd series 2 elite...( Went through 5 of the first gen. ones) The sticks will start to drift and then eventually stop working completely... Definitely buy the extended warranty.
