    I own the Series 1 and it’s nice but this one is great! It’s super comfortable and smooth. Love the internal battery and the fact that you can charge it while it’s in the case.

    I bought the controller since my old series 2 was broken so i bought this one and it is definitely worth it. Besides the color not being the same there isnt much of a difference controller wise.

    Best Xbox Controller There Is

    I have nothing bad to say about this controller. I realize some people in the past have had issues with their controllers breaking down. I have not been one of these people. I owned the Series 1 and loved it. Not with the Series 2 it has only gotten better. I think it's leap to say that it is drastically better, but it's defiantly better. I think the grips are nicer than the Series 1. The paddles feel tighter, which I like. And having the ability to adjust the thumb sticks is very nice. This is a solid, well built controller. But I will also say that if you hare happy with your original controller, you do not have to spend the extra money on one of these. This controller is a "want", not a "need".

    For what u paid for (used) it’s great! Unfortunately I was expecting to come in its original box but didn’t, which it’s still ok. It came with everything, the controller was spotless and scratch less too! But, as I expected for a used item, the left trigger had some registering problems on its lowest setting, besides that the rest of the controller works perfectly.

    First elite controller I’ve ever bought, and i now i dont think i can use or go back to a regular controller anymore. Firm, has some wight to it, definitely a premium feel. Would recommend it to everyone, it gets some getting use to having the paddles in the back if you’re using all of them but, you get used to it in no time

    It's awesome how you can customize the buttons and sensitivity. The battery life duration is amazing . The price could be better. I don't think the price is worth it really .

    Elite 2 controller core for the win

    Definitely worth the buy if you previously had an elite controller. If your old expensive elite 2 controller broke and need a replacement? Buy the core and take the parts off your old controller and voila, you have a fully functional elite 2 controller with all the bells and whistles at a fraction of the price. Don't forget the protection plan for when you get stick drift.

    Expensive but awesome controller

    First things first this is an expensive controller and there a lot of other things to spend money on. But if you have the funds or are looking for a gift for an Xbox gamer, this is an awesome controller package. Everything has been built from the ground up to be the best (within reason) way to play on Xbox. The interchangeable parts, the quick settings for how different parts like the d pad react to your input is really well thought out, the nice bonus here is the really nice case it comes in, the usb c charging capability and the charging dock that can either be in the case or outside the case.

    I didn't expect much difference from the Xbox One controller I've been using for my PC setup, but going through so many AA batteries made me consider this one. Not only is it rechargable, but the 4 buttons on the bottom are life changing for gaming. If I had this when I was playing Elden Ring, it would have made a WORLD of difference. Not having to take your thumbs off of the movement and camera sticks is incredibly useful. TLDR : GET IT!
