    Compared to any pther Xbox one X or series X controller. The additional grip and mappable buttonsnin single player as well as multiplayer games is just an incredible feature. Great build quality, customizable, definitely worth getting when on sale

    You can feel the difference in quality on this controller compared to the standard Xbox ones. Even if you are not looking to use all of the features, you might have gone through two or three controllers already because they broke. Good investment to make if you are in that situation or if you do not want to keep on replacing part on your controller. The customization on the elite is endless. The four paddles feel great. The ability to tighten and swap out the joy sticks is also great.

    Overall great high end controller, just be sure to be up to date on the warranty so you can send it in to have the wear and tear fixed. Stick starts to drift after a couple months of heave use which is expected, paddles start to stick, just make sure you send it before the warranty ends.

    I’ve used a lot of different controllers. The elite 1 was great, but the elite 2 is definitely better. The different analog sticks are very convenient and comfortable. Grips nice on the controller. The in game settings that you can adjust are phenomenal and helped tremendously in games.

    Was very skeptical about this at first due to the high cost, but after using it a few times I love how easy it is to use and how you can customize your settings. This controller makes game play much easier and more enjoyable

    Overall this controller has been amazing. It has super high quality parts and is a step above the standard controller. I did have an issue with mine within 6 months but was able to send it into Microsoft for the warrently and gets replacement device easily. Overall very happy with my controller and will be buying another if I ever need to get a new controller.

    Since I have an elite controller, my competitive level went so high. It’s difficult to get use to the pads, but when you do, you destroy noobs. You must buy the geek squad protection, so you can exchange it if it’s not working

    Play a lot of games tried a lot of controllers and this is the Ferrari of them for Xbox right now I own both consoles and tried many controllers and I personally enjoy this one the most and love the options you get to customize your sensitivity’s for the triggers etc and the three different trigger locks are nice and magnetic buttons can’t go wrong! And bonus the case plugs in and controller charges like a wireless charge is also dope

    Extra functionality does not compensate for bulk.

    The extra paddle functionality is a nice touch. Not the best in ergonomic design. It is a bit bulkier than what I prefer. A bit more stream lined design in the area of the finger-to-palm grip.

    The Elite Series 2 is probably the best controller I’ve ever had. However, the one big complaint I have about it is that the D-pad feels very loose. I guess it’s because it’s just the nature of it being an interchangeable part, but the D-pad should feel more high quality than it is for the price of the controller.

    The Elite 2 controller is good, but flaws remain.

    The Elite 2 controller be the greatest XBox controller ever, but it suffers from the same flaws and weaknesses as it predecessor. The sticks mechanisms break down to wear and tear gaming within six months of use. Eventually the push down click on the stick intermittently stops functioning and you're screwed if the click is a vital action in a game, like sprinting or running. Creep is starting to rear it's ugly head in the same stick. And just this week one of the bumpers began intermittently stopping function or it's sticking. All of these issues should've been corrected with the Elite 2. But instead of upgrading the quality and durability of what really matters most they put more R&D into the exterior cosmetics, which I like. It's actually feels really good in your hands. I LIKE IT, but I want to love the Elite 2. It's just not what a Gen 2 premium controller that demands $30 over Gen 1, but doesn't deliver in the wear and tear department. Will I buy another, of course. And this time I'll buy the freakin' insurance. It was a Gen 2, I thought I would be better.

    I bought this controller so that I could remap buttons to the back; The idea was to make it easier on my arthritic hands. Worked great, the overall feel of the controller is top hat. My old controller now feels like a slippery piece of Styrofoam.

    I was looking to take my gaming to a higher level with some of the new FPS titles that had come out ie: Apex Legends / COD and I wanted the ability to preset and learn to keep my fingers on the buttons to mitigate the time I spent unable to complete important actions like aiming or reloading. The grips on this controller are amazing and the ability to swap out parts so easily is a huge plus. I've used this daily since I bought it and have seen little to no wear or lag in the aiming dead zone.

    These controllers bring your gaming to the next level. I bought these for my sons, who play Fortnite against their friends, and they are dominating. It is built incredibly well and has excellent battery life.
