    The series 2 is more ergonomic then its predecessor. The paddles are a little smaller making it much less likely to accidentally hit a button while setting the controller down, the rechargeable battery has great life, 3 settings for trigger pull for more control and also the joystick tension is adjustable. Buttons can be remapped to suit what u want to do. All in all.. Great controller.

    I game everyday for a long time and the controller has always gave me the best performance! I was really iffy about buying this one because the series 1 did not last and was messing up all the time. I got this with the 2 year protection and was happy with the feel and durability of the controller. recommend the protection because you never know when these things can go bad!

    I own the original elite series controller and this series 2 by far is the best Xbox controller yet. Built in battery so you can charge via charging dock via USB C and it has new customization on the triggers and the response time is excellent. It also has new grips on it and before the previous version used to peel after some time. If you are a true hardcore gamer I strongly recommend.

    Excellent controller. I bought the first generation when it came out and a Geek Squad warranty (which was, and still is with any gaming peripheral, a necessity) and had to replace it multiple times. This controller, however, they improved DRASTICALLY on the quality. Same great features as the first generation, just updated and perfected this time around.

    Simplicity is one of the keys. I had two other brands over the last decade and a half. This one isn’t as tiresome to use. It’s also VERY responsive. A great choice.

    I’ve had three of these now and each one has had the RB button fail. I love the weight and feel of the controller but I can’t say it’s worth the price with this major flaw.

    Fresh out of the box, it's an absolute beast, but tends to show its age after a year. If you're purchasing this, do yourself a favor a get the 2yr warranty as it's notorious for stick drift after continuous use.

    Great Controller, love how it comes with interchangeable thumb sticks, the grip is nice, and the plus is the charging pad. The weight is a little heavy but not bad.
