    Worth the extra coin if you want a superior controller for Xbox. Nothing else comes close.

    This has been a great purchase for an update to my Xbox console. Definitely has given me a nice edge on game play with fps (COD) games.

    I have used the Original Elite and the Series 2 for years. By far the best controller on the market for me. Everything is extremely high quality, and i believe there is no comparison. Even the weighted feel, feels premium and durable. Its hard to find paddles on other controllers that are as comfortable as the Elite, especially with 4 paddle. So much customization you can do to give you every gaming advantage.

    Overall Improvement over Series 1

    I used an Elite Series 1 controller for 6+ years before finally deciding to replace it just after Christmas last year. The Series 2 feels improved in ergonomics and refinement, and all functions feel more crisp in comparison to the Series 1. I've been using the Series 2 for almost nine months now, and it's showing no signs of cosmetic wear. The only minor issue I've noticed is that I have a little bit of play in the left joystick, maybe 2-3% of the overall travel. Typically this is not an issue due to there being a deadzone in most controls, however, I'm not able to get extremely precise with it. Overall, very happy with the purchase and will likely buy a Series 3 after a few more years of using this one.

    Better than Scuf

    I've had this controller for about 3 weeks nlw with no issues at all. I have also owned at least two scuf controllers and each scuf controller had issues at least 1 week aster use. This controller sensitivity is excellent and the adjustable triggers makes it great for Call of Duty and Warzone. The back paddles uses an app to configure them how you would like and is a very easy to use. This controller quality wise is better than any scuf or console controller i have ever used. I use this for my PC and dont own an Xbox Series X or S although for PC this controller is a beast. For quality this controller beats anything out right now. I know that PS is coming out with its own controller with back paddles, but from early reports is going to be significantly more expensive than this controller. If the Elite controller ever starts experiencing issues, i may give the PS controller a try.

    My grandson dropped it the first day, and buttons fell off -- but the surprise was when the buttons easily reattached magnetically.

    Best controller ever owned -- and most expensive

    After using this controller, I can't go back to a regular one! The weight, the texture, the feel is just amazing, and the paddles are great. It oozes premium quality... The interchangeable parts are very useful, but I find myself still using thumb joystick extenders. And the battery lasts SO LONG (easily all month with light use). Is it worth the INSANE price though?.... eek, probably not. This is a guilty pleasure, to be sure. There are also major build quality issues with this controller. Both sets I've owned have had issues with the 'A' button not registering unless pressed perfectly head-on. Considering that's your 'jump' button in most games, you can imagine how annoying that can be. There are lots of posts about this on the internet, and advice on how to fix it using tape/etc. Not something you expect to have to do for such a high-priced, premium piece of hardware.

    It's great, but overpriced

    I like it a lot, but I feel like it was overpriced, even though it's being sold as a premium product. I really like the extra buttons on the back, and the fact that you can reprogram all the buttons. The extra long thumb stick is nice for extra precision. It feels good in the hands. It's heavier than the stock controllers, but not so much that it gets tiring to hold. The adjustable trigger travel distance is cool for shooters where you have to react quickly. The rubberized hand grips feel nice and keep my hands relatively cool. It comes with a nice zippered travel case with a built-in charging dock that can be used while it's in the case, or it can be removed from the case and used separately to charge the controller. I don't plan to take this anywhere, but I keep it in the case, next to my TV. I leave it closed, but unzipped, so it's still easy to access, but it keeps it from getting dust on it (I don't get time to play as often as I would like) Overall, if you play a lot of Xbox, it's probably a worthwhile investment.

    A decent controller!

    I bought the Microsoft Elite Series 2 wireless controller to play some games on my PC and Xbox. It's a pretty good controller, but not perfect. The design is sleek and comfortable, and the buttons are responsive and customizable. The battery life is also impressive, lasting for hours on a single charge. However, I have some issues with the durability and the price. The controller feels a bit fragile, and I'm worried it might break easily. The price is also quite high, especially compared to other controllers on the market. Overall, I think it's a decent controller for gaming, but not worth the hype.

    I think this is a great controller, until it breaks. I've had about 10 of these and the series 1 in total. BUY THE REPLACEMENT WARRANTY. It's worth every penny. The usual things that break are the left bumper button and usb connection if you choose to plug it in. It's fantastic until it breaks, I just with the quality control was better on these, but I love the feel, the weight and customization compared to a stock xbox controller

    Not a bad controller. Has some weight and was good condition for a return. Only has one bad back paddle button i just found out when i started using the paddles. No instructions with it but found them online. Will bring it in at some point for the button fix with geek squad when im in the area as its hours away to closest bestbuy. Price for these controllers are ridiculous new thats why i went used with the warranty.

    You dont know what youre missing until you start playing with this controller. The paddles are a huge help for FPS games. The carry case, attachments, and charging docks are amazing add ons. The controller feels SO good and sturdy. The grips are amazing and great for holding on especially if you have sweaty hands.
