    Excellent controller. Love the interchangeable sticks and the adjustable vibration and trigger! The texture of the grip area is incredible. The price is high, but totally worth everything that comes with it.

    I love this thing. Nothing like running the battlefield with ease when you're using this controller. If you're into flying in Battlefield, this is well worth the month. With the accessory app, you can even set a macro to "dip dip potato chip" with a single tap of a paddle. Highly recommended!

    Thisbis my 4th elite controller. The controller itself is amazing but it will not stand up to the riggers of competitive play. It lasts me about a year before I start losing the RB button and about a month later I'll develop drift. The controller us amazing beyond those issues.

    this controller is excellent for PC gamers. Amazing build quality and minimal customization on triggers and thumbsticks make it an amazing controller for all types of games! I would definitely buy another one but i’m sure I wont need to!

    Initially, I was hesitant in purchasing this device solely because of its price tag. A friend suggested that the controller is worth the price: She was right. The elite controller feels premium and definitely feels leagues above the standard xbox and even series controller. The convenience of the paddles adds a layer of quickness that makes game play feel more immersive and smooth. A hefty price tag, but if you have the money it is well worth the price.

    This is my second elite 2 controller. The first one was a base model. Within 2 years the RB stopped working which is a common issue, but you need solder and replace a ten dollar part to fix it. Which I tried and failed to do. So the core comes along and I had hoped maybe they fixed but they did not. About 1 month after my extended warranty expired the RB button died again. Honestly I wouldn’t recommend this control based on the failure rate. Especially on a premium product. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because when it works it’s my favorite controller. I can justify the price.

    I have owned the original Elite controller for years. I have replaced parts rather than purchased this newer version, but i am extremely happy with the upgrade. This controller is lighter and feels great in my hands. I am sorry I didnt replace my original elite controller sooner.

    I had my eyes on this for a while. Bit the bullet after missing out on Black Friday sales but i love the purchase! Its been helpful on games and Fps. And it feels premium with its padding and grip and extra tactical buttons.

    Good controller but didn’t last long. My son gets a lot of wear and tear on controllers but I was hoping this higher end one would be more durable

    The elite controller is one of the nicest controllers made but with a bunch of annoying flaws. This version 2 has a ton of things improved on it that are much needed. The internal battery is honestly a downgrade for longevity for when it goes bad you'll have to tear it down to replace it. I'd prefer the AA's all day for longevity. otherwise amazing controller.

    By far the heaviest of the XBox controllers out there mainly due to a 40 hour rechargeable battery. The rubberized grips do make it a much more pleasant controller to use. Easier to hold on to. The variety of buttons and sticks is always nice and they are simple and easy to replace. Extra buttons with three button profiles to save to. With an indicator light to tell you which profile you are using. The charging hub is not large and can easily sit on top of the console. Con: Expensive!

    Don’t purchase from Best Buy

    Purchased this for my son’s birthday while it was on sale before christmas. his birthday is the second week of January, and the controller was nicely priced at around $104 or something like that. The controller worked great, out of the box, but come back a week later and it is dead. No biggie, but long story short, after trying to charge it for a few days, still not working, so go to take it back and was denied by Best Buy. They said I should have purchased the $50 extended warranty or some such. Disappointed to say the least. Wont be purchasing from Best Buy again. That same day, purchased new washer (not from BB though)…
