    The Elite Series 2 is probably the best controller I’ve ever had. However, the one big complaint I have about it is that the D-pad feels very loose. I guess it’s because it’s just the nature of it being an interchangeable part, but the D-pad should feel more high quality than it is for the price of the controller.

    I absolutely love the elite series 2 controller. The only thing I can say is, GET THE WARRANTY!!! I highly recommend it, these things do break. We use them alot and even though they should last longer, they do not. The bumpers start going on them, joy sticks drift alot, mine drifts out of the box lol. Just get the warranty and u will love your controller, if you don't you will be out 180 bucks sooner than you would like.

    These remotes are amazing . I like that , they have a little weight to them and you can change out the toggle switches to pads or flat plates . Great job on these.

    This controller is one of the best on the market, and for well reason. I’ve owned this remote for roughly 2 months now and has given me little to no problems. The only thing that I have noticed with the remote is sticky buttons but after a few gears of war sessions and COD it broke the remote in. The charging mechanism of the remote and even just the case it comes in is amazing and the quality of the remote.

    I love this controller. Connects to my Xbox and my tablet! I have not connected it to my computer yet, but that is the plan too. I am getting used to the paddles, but the overall feel is nice. It is not as heavy as my old controller with a rechargeable battery in it. I am a big fan and may buy a second for myself. My son had a first generation one and upgraded for Christmas. He really likes his as well.

    Great controller! 2 months in and no stick drift. Very tacky grip which is an upgrade from original elite 2. Purchased the scuf triggers and made a world of a difference with the response!

    Great Controller, but wears out relatively quick

    Only reason this controller doesn’t get a five star review is that it tends to develop stick drift or faulty bumpers. It’s worth it to get the protection plan to be able to replace it.

    Best controller out there. Great weight, and good quality feel. Only complaint, that some will consider a positive, is the built in rechargeable battery. I prefer Eneloop standard batteries rather than non-user replaceable battery that certainly will degrade. The prices on this has fallen so it is much more reasonable price than the original MSRP.

    It works great, but a little over 2 months and it keeps shutting on and off. I think its the C port cable. It keeps saying reconnect controller.

    This controller so far has been the greatest experience with a controller I’ve had. The grip is outstanding, the customizability of it is extraordinary and the weight really gives it that premium controller feel. Definitely recommend this controller. I don’t think I have anything negative to say besides every now and then I have to clean the controller to clear up any dust, which is nothing, an easy cleanse every week or so and you’re set.

    History of remotes I've used: Razor wolverine ultimate Razor wolverine Xbox elite 1 Various standard xbox remotes The Elite 2 far surpasses all of these remote with its customizable triggers and analog sticks. The new and improved paddles on the back make for better ergonomic handling while they are attached. The improved bumpers are a great step up from the elite 1 which I have broke in more than one occasion just from wear n tear. Buy and enjoy!

    I mean, what a difference is playing with this controller. I finally decided to spend some money to see if i would notice a difference from a regular controller and man! Difference is an understatement. I will never play with a regular controller again in my life. If you really enjoy video games , you deserved one of this

    Just buy it! It’s a great controller with back levers you can program. It has a number of profiles you can save on the controller. Three profiles you can rotate to quickly. It’s very responsive and has quickly become my favorite controller!

    Amazing overall however, the durability is not quite there for the price. On my 2nd controller due to wear and tear or button smashed inside controller in 3 years. Otherwise, it's very nice feeling and works great

    If you are a fan of the newest standard controller that ships with Series X|S and are wanting something more from your controller; this Elite Series 2 might be the tool to improve your game. I'm a Halo player and it's fun to be able to map, save, and switch Slots depending on which Halo game I am playing. Muscle memory is key, and this controller has left me satisfied for the future.
