    I like all the customizations that can be done. I like that it's a little heavy so I can't accidentally throw it in the air.

    It's an excellent controller, easy to use. I do recommend that you purchase the geek squad repairs services. I've had mine for a little over a year and have some stick drift, other than that still fully operational. It's a bit complicated to fix yourself.

    This controller is like something from a sci-fi movie. The case that it came in itself charges the controller. It's built like a tank, very sturdy, but light weight. Easy to hold for those long hours of gaming. I highly recommend buying this for the gamer in your life.

    I absolutely love elite controllers. I buy them for both myself and my son. Bought a set of gen 2s to replace the gen 1s we both had. I can't game with a normal controller after owning an elite. The new changes to the controller were also very nice.

    Excellent controller. Bought one when they were first available, but got stuck drift within 35 days of use. This new version is holding up very well and feels tighter.

    Game changer!

    This controller has been a literal game changer. I’m only disappointed I didn’t buy one sooner. You really notice how much better it is once you get it all set up and then switch back to the standard controller. My KD is way up since I changed to this controller. With FPS games thousandths of a second can be all the difference. This makes you faster and more precise and with the paddles you no longer have to take. Your fingers off other controls giving you the advantage.

    I never have to use the regular buttons. Fully mapped them to the back paddles and the two extra shoulder ones. Fits well, comfortable, battery lasts decently long. No complaints.

    I bought this for my son’s 20th birthday. He is happy with it so far. This will be his 3rd one because the joystick keeps going out on them. So hopefully that doesn’t happen with this one.

    Very nice upgrade to the standard controller. I like how grippy it is and the paddles are nice to use. The only thing I miss is not having a share button on this controller. Maybe the series 3 will have it.

    Thought I know that eventually this controller will develop stick drift, there isn't a better alternative. This is hands down the BEST controller for pc and Xbox. You will not find a better one.

    Great controller if you have the money to waste on it or you are truly a gamer and will benefit from the slight difference in the mods it is capable of performing.
