    So much nicer than stock controller. Custom profiles are a game changer. Takes some getting used to utilizing the paddles but they come in handy in shooters and from software games (dodge roll, jump, heal). All of the materials and options are very nice to have. I recommend buying the service plan as many reports online state the controller can become faulty.

    I purchased this remote despite some of the negative reviews I’ve read about it. I’ve owned it for a little over a month now and have used it almost daily. From my experience I’d give it a 9/10. It feels really good in my hands, slightly heavier than the original Xbox remote. I like the fact that you can charge it inside of its case when it’s not being used and the case is really sleek and durable. The battery easily lasts a few days without charging. The only issue that I’ve had with it is that it has drifted 2 or 3 times so I know that it does exist now. It hasn’t happened often, and it’s not a continuous issue so far but it has happened and you immediately notice when it occurs. Besides that I do enjoy this remote and would definitely recommend it if your into shooters like COD, Apex, Halo, ex…my only suggestion would be to pay for the extended warranty.

    Hands down the best!! Out of all the controllers I’ve used the elite series 2 beats them all! Vastly improved from the series 1. Heavy feel in your hand, superior battery life, fully rubberized, interchangeable control sticks which the tension can also be adjusted, trigger tension can also be adjusted. 4 additional triggers can be added although I don’t use them because the way I grip the controller I accidentally press them sometimes, so you can conveniently remove them or only use the ones you want. Multiple users can be saved to the controller for different configurations as well. Highly recommend paying for the geek squad protection plan, as it is a replacement plan. So if ANYTHING at all ever goes wrong with it they will replace it with a brand new one. My sticks started drifting so I brought it in and they replaced it with no questions asked, they were out of stock so they just shipped it to my home and had it in 2 days.

    So for so good! For the most part I like the length of time between charges and the options to modify the various functions of the controller. It is a little heavier than the standard controllers that come with the game system, but once you play with the controller for a while you will get use to the weight. I know the price point is a bit much for some. While I read several reviews speaking as to some having problems with product quality I choose to purchase the maintenance package with this product. Considering how much it would cost to replace it for any reason. Will update this if things changes.

    Words can't express the quality of this controller. It blows any of the other wireless controllers away with its solid construction. It has metal buttons, interchangeable joysticks and D-pad. You can fully remap the controls plus you get the 4 extra trigger buttons to use if wanted which is sweet. The internal battery is a beast! I charge my controller maybe once a week now versus every day. It really lasts 50 hours+. The grips on the controller work great, plus it's the same size as the standard controllers so it feels right in your hands. Last but not least it comes with a well built, rugid carrying case that can charge the controller while it's inside. This controller is a must have for any passionate gamer! You will not be disappointed!

    I had gotten an opened-box all black one for roughly $60 plus $35 warranty. Easily the best controller for any shooter game or even a regular gamer that needs buttons that are easier to press. My opened box one was missing the usb-c cable but that wasn’t a big deal. The controller functions like it is brand new. Easily the best controller I have owned and when this warranty is over and the controller breaks down the line I will 100% be buying another one!!

    Elite Until Broken

    The Xbox Elite Series 2 controller feels like quality the first time you hold the controller. The grips are comfortable, the interchangeable sticks and D-Pad make you feel that the controller is designed for anyone. The paddles add even more customization than the average gamer knew they needed. With features like this how could this controller be rated any less than a 5 you may wonder. Well lets just say that the experience is "Elite" until the controller falls apart, literally. The Series 2 was my second go at the Elite controllers from Microsoft and at first I fell in love again and forgot how my original elite controller broke. However after nearly a year of using the controller my left stick's button (LS) was no longer operational. I made due by making my paddles the LS and RS buttons and have grown accustom to utilizing those. Then the second fault occurred, my left bumper no longer registered. Now I could've just thrown in another set of paddles to get me by, but the paddles aren't meant to replace broken components. So at the end of the day, the controller truly is a fantastic experience and changes the way I viewed controllers. However I am 0/2 with working Elite controllers, I had insurance on the controller via GeekSquad so I did swap it out for a new one. Just buyer beware on the fragile nature of the controller. Highly Recommend Geek Squad insurance.

    I really like the hefty weight the controller has, and I can't play without the paddles anymore. However, after about a year of use the right bumper sometimes drops the input. while one of the paddles feel stiff. On top of if I squeeze it a little to hard it cuts off. And it randomly disconnects. I really love this controller. I just wish it lasted a little longer for the price tag

    I really love the elite controller. Thanks to Best Buy and the Protection Plan I was able to replace my broken controller. Plus I got this on sale. I do love the weight of it and the paddle buttons on the bottom for extra buttons. The D-pad has a nice feel and so does the joystick. I do like the battery life. I myself never ran out of power. It comes with a case that you can sit your controller in and connect the USB-C cable so it can charge inside the case. I love that I can pair this with my PC.
