    I’ve really enjoyed this controller so far. The quick customization to your game play style for any game in just seconds by switching parts and profiles makes the user experience that much nicer. The controller is well built and very customizable. Also really enjoy the charger and case.

    Great controller... has some quirks

    The controller is excellent. It is making a noticeable difference in my gaming. Training myself to use it has been a different battle. Noticeable issues are the occasional missed press. When the remote has been dormant for longer than 10+ seconds, it seems to need a second press to engage.

    A and B button miss inputs right out of the box. Absolutely no quality control at Microsoft. They just took some old controllers that didn't sell and slapped them in new packaging and called it "Core"

    Feels good. Customization is nice. A lot more solid feeling than a regular X controller. Hopefully the quality is better than the X controllers.

    I had the first Elite Series controller and it ate the batteries. This controller, with the built in battery, lasts a long time. Very happy with it.

    Having owned and used Series 1 for years, I was pleasantly surprised on how well Series 2 feels and performs. Only time will tell as the Series 1 tended to fail after months of use with the grips separating and I list sound output from the ports. So far so good and I am pleased with the improved version.

    This controller is incredible. My first pro and got it at discount. I don't even bother with my 3 other xbox controllers anymore. Great premium feel, back paddles are useful and love customizable features and great carrying case!

    A noticeable upgrade over the Series X default controller. Sturdier in hand, quieter button presses, full customization of stick and paddles, but most importantly, reduced input lag that has actually helped me get more kills in FPS games! I didnt think the price was worth it, but now that I have this controller, couldnt game without it!

    Love the controller but certain aspects don’t last long. I keep mine very clean and still end up with stick drift, sticky buttons, and bumpers that don’t work within 6 months.

    I was a little unhappy about this not coming with the paddles, but that is probably on me for not reading the description well enough. But selling them separately is an idiotic premise!

    Had to return the controller after I found one of the paddles wasn't functioning. This was not fun to deal with of course, but the exchange process was easy, and the controller feels great to use for console gaming!

    I had the previous Xbox Elite controller and really liked it. It’s rubber would wear off which I’m guessing may happen to this one as well. The reason I only gave 4 stars is because you can not change out the batteries on the new model. The whole controller has to be charged. I’d prefer to have a rechargeable battery pack and still be able to use normal batteries.

    Very expensive controller but huge improvement over the base controller. I love mapping buttons to the bottom but really only keep one paddle on the controller to keep it daily useable. Stick feel is great charges easily and with the charger built into the case it’s easy to put it up at night and have a fully charged controller when I’m ready to use it.
