    Great controller. So many customizations in the Xbox accessory app. I love the different size thumb sticks and the D pad that’s included. Love the paddles, even though there was a slight learning curve for me on those. I like the fact that you can create a profile for different games and save it your controller. The controller doesn’t feel cheap and feels good in your hands. I do recommend you get the extended warranty due to the fact that controllers do have issues due to the amount of use they are put through. Great controller and a nice addition to your console.

    Worked smoother than an XBOX One remote. Appears to be of higher quality and more durable which is important.

    My son loves how easy this controller is to navigate between different functions. The battery charge lasts forever it seems, and the ergonomics are comfortable.

    This is a really great controller! The battery is amazing. I opened it up and started playing with it, and it took 4 days of heavy playing until I had to charge it for the first time. The controls feel great, and I love how the sticks can be changed out. The paddles are amazing, and will greatly increase your success in playing fps games.

    Just replaced my xbox elite 2 after about 3 years, and since having one, i only needed the core. Once having and elite its hard to go back. However they are fragile. First one is almost unusable now from 1 bad drop

    The right bumper goes bad, this is my 3rd elite 2. I get a year out of them on average. At least now it's a bit less $ without all the triggers and sticks of which I have several sets of. Sending them to Microsoft for repair is a nightmare, and they send you someone else's they fixed. I'd rather save the time and aggravation and just buy a new one.

    Besides some of the rubber coming up it's been a solid controller. Probably the best one I use in my whole life. With the Xbox companion app you can map the back buttons and pretty much set up the controller how you want with customizable sticks and d-pad. I've been able to use this on my S7 tablet also

    This "Microsoft - Elite Series 2 Core" wireless controller is the best I got in my hands so far. Absolutely smooth and precise handling. You can adjust pretty much anything you want to optimize your gameplay. The two triggers can also mechanically be adjusted to your needs. Outstanding quality!

    Nice solid controller like msot of the elite series has been. Gotta be super careful never to get a drop of water on it or itll be done for. The texture on the grip isnt my favorite in the least. Used this for a couple years, but glad i got the Envsion Pro for my PC.

    I was leery to pick up another expensive controller since the v1 grips peeled on mine. It has been a few months of average use and I see much improvement. It feels great in my hand, grips are a little light but I’ve had no issues with it slipping. Battery life is good and I enjoy the new charging station. I really don’t use the back buttons all that much so I won’t speak in their function. The triggers are smooth but again not all games recognize the short trigger pulls. Overall it’s a great controller that is more of a luxury item over a need. If you have the funds, go for it. If not, you won’t miss a lot
