    No batteries required was a great selling point. Buttons are smooth. Seems sturdy.

    Buttons started sticking on my xbox x controller already so i went with the elite. I really like how you can easily swap joysticks and add buttons. It makes my COD aiming a bit easier and faster. Can customize settings directly from xbox settings. So far this is my favorite controller I've had.

    Best Controller in My Opinion.

    One of the best controllers I have ever used. The 4 paddle option makes it so easy to customize movements and re-mapping everything to my way of playing the game.

    I think this control made back paddles mainstream and for that it has its place in history. But now there are better more reliable options on the market. If you don't need the back paddles the regular Xbox controller actually has lower (better) input latency than this controller. 7ms vs 14ms, defiantly makes a difference when playing anything online competitively. I would only buy this control for its comfort in hand factor and for playing single player games now days. Also lots and lots of QC issue with button actuation.

    This controller feels great in your hands and the response is outstanding. I really like the customization options. All of the buttons can be re-mapped so that you can make the controller work best for you. The charging station / carrying case is a great option as well. Just drop it in an it connects pretty much every time. If you're serious about gaming with the X-Box this is the controller for you.

    Elite S2 Controller is one of the best, if not, THE best Xbox controller out there. The controller itself is insanely comfortable and the paddles are super helpful if the time is put in to use them. The adjustments for the sticks are odd, but useful in many high level games that any gamer should be able to do regardless of controller. Great piece of hardware for any serious nerd out there trying to dominate some games. Enjoy :)

    Nearly as good as the previous gen. I like how you can have more than 2 profiles (3 loaded at any time) but the controller is narrow than the previous gen one and, as such, the upper paddles require you to curve your fingers to access them.

    Best controller I've ever felt.....after you have it in your hands you won't want to touch the regular one ever ever again...... Only flaw is a faint weird sound from the top of the controller when it vibrates... I usually play when everyone else is asleep so with the sound down all the way and nothing going on and you can hear a ping ping you it rumbles........ Trust me you probably wouldn't notice it.....9.75

    It is a great controller, but for myself at full price it makes no sense. If you game a lot and want customizable features it is perfect.

    The series 2 elite controller was a major upgrade from the series 1. My series one had many physical defects, ( rubber gripping peeling off, bumpers breaking, analog stick rubber peeling off) but with the series 2 I’ve experienced zero issues. Controller feels great and really helps in all games with the paddle configurations along with trigger modifications. Love this controller and totally worth the money!

    This is my second elite controller. Had the original version when I was console gaming but have switched to pc but haven't gotten used to the whole keyboard/ mouse combo yet. So far no stick drift and love the trigger locks and programmable buttons. Feels better than the wolverine ultimate I used to game with

    I don’t understand why this is not part of the the console… these are so easy to use! And just like the new Astro A50 headphones, I don’t have to mount it far away, near the console, but can mount the charging station next to my gaming chair and start a game from there, or charge it more conveniently!

    This controller is fantastic the ability to adjust tension helps tremendously in FPS games. The ability to toggle if you want to use the paddles is helpful for watching Netflix. Compared to the first model the paddles are significantly smaller. The smaller size helps with hand fatigue imo. Definitely would recommend this product, but maybe consider the warranty due to the issue of quality control, and potential stick drift.

    This is my second time buying this controller and it’s definitely my favorite. My husband and I like that you can take it a part and customize it to your liking. The only downside of it is it’s price. It’s a bit on the pricier side and I have seen other options for controllers that you can also customize but they are wireless. If you’re willing to spend this much I would get it!
