    I purchased this controller about a month ago and what a difference in gameplay. I no longer use the buttons during play instead am using the paddles which for me works much more efficient. The quality of this is amazing and better than any other controller I had. I was always a fan of PlayStation controllers until someone told me this controller will change my mind in many ways for gaming. If you are a hardcore FPS I recommend this controller all day long.

    Its been a month and Ive def noticed some wear and tear but over all its functional still. Id give it 5 stars cause its such a good controller but for 200 dollars id expect it to be a bit more durable so ill give it 4.

    It works well but the A button is intermittent already after only a couple of months of light use (8-12 hours a week). No issues with the grips yet like the first elite. The elite series 2 joysticks do work so that's a plus.

    The elite 2 separates itself with the extra paddles on the back. The layout and feel of these extra paddles are much better than other controllers. The programmable profiles are a nice feature as well. If you are a heavy gamer I would opt for the warranty.

    I have used the controller several times now, but the weight is something I have to get used to. There is a bit of learning curve with the extra paddles on the back. The price was excellent, but to be fair, I did get it as an open box item.

    Best of the best. I had the original Elite controller (and still do.. 4 years and going strong). When I got the Series X Console, it seemed like a miss pairing to use a generic controller with such a beautiful console. Series 2 Elite builds on the strengths of the original... refined paddles, digitally selectable profiles, additional trigger stop options etc. it also has a great feature of being able to charge the internal battery while it in its case. A++ device.... that price tag tho....

    The used controller was very accurate. The controller was in excellent condition. It had all the parts that come with the controller and was clean and ready to use. I will always trust bestbuy with its open box items and they are always in correct condition

    I've had the worst luck with XBOX controllers. They are by far the most unreliable controllers on the market. I am extremely careful, gentle with my controllers what frustrates me the most. This controller does have a tendency to frequently disconnect from my XBOX. Sometimes I have to completely power off my console or reconnect by pairing the controller again. To my stupidity, I did not get the protection plan on this controller, so I guess I am out of luck. With XBOX my controllers usually last 1-2 years with no wear and tear at all. Actually, my controller that came with the XBOX lasted months before not working and it was just a backup controller that was hardly used. With the money that I paid for this controller if it does not last I will definitely be switching to Playstation 5. My Playstation 4 controllers are over 5 years old and work perfectly fine. I will say the quality of the controller is great and it feels great in the hands. It also has some well-balanced weight to it which feels good as well. Buttons and pad are adjustable and it does come with a nice carrying case.

    Nice controller, not worth upgrade from series 1

    The build quality of this controller is solid, there are a few quality of life improvements added such as rechargeable battery, better grips and a button to adjust the profile that's in use (instead of a switch). If you're looking for a nice Xbox/PC controller this is a solid buy, if you have a Series 1 controller I wouldn't recommend the upgrade unless you get this on sale.

    Best Xbox Controller

    Love everything about it -- except the new rubber padding that was extended over the handles. My old Elite controller they gripped really well; the new material feels waxy and slippery. Other than that, there's nothing to complain about. Comes with rechargeable battery and recharges by putting back in the case. Adjustable joystick tension, better paddle controls, and a host of other improvements make this the best conrtoller out there. If only it felt "grippier'....

    Definitely recommend. I’ve had a couple of these controllers over the years and will keep one as long as I have a Xbox. The controller weighs just a little bit more but it feels great actually feels like it has value. Battery life is very nice as well.

    The best controller on the market. I’ve had 2 of the original Elite Controller and this improved on it in every way. Better battery life, a case with built-in charging cradle, better (long lasting) grips, multiple thumb sticks, and thumb stick tension? They literally checked every box I could’ve asked for. It lasts longer too—none of that drift issue plaguing the first generation. I have used this every day since it came out and the only issue I’ve had was hand cramps from playing too long!
