    I absolutely love the Microsoft elite series controllers. I have a black one that I use. Also, this white one looks even better. It doesn’t come with the battery or the case but you really don’t need it. I love the way the stick works and it comes with all of the buttons and switches to the other one for the price you cannot go wrong with this I absolutely love the way it feels in your hand. The grip is nice the white does get dirty a little easy but it’s still looks great.

    Never knew what the hype was for these expensive controllers until i finally bought one! The grip is better, and the material feels more premium! If you are hesitant on buying this controller dont wait go ahead and buy it!

    Controller is the best out there except for the fact that the thumbsticks will start to drift in a few months. Definitely get the replacement plan. Hall effect sticks just don't feel the same.

    Generally I like it but I found the adjustable trigger on the two shorter settings can sometimes be unreliable. I've had many times I pulled the zoom trigger in Call of Duty and it started to zoom then didnt, leading to lost kills. Not sure if thats a general problem or just my unit. I got this on a good sale, otherwise its too expensive.

    The Xbox Elite Series 2 controller is the Xbox one controller at it's best. The weight and feel of the controller is superior to the default Xbox One controller. Can't go back after using this

    Ive had it for about a month now and love it. I have a small collection of special edition controllers id switch between but now they’re purely for display. This Elite Series 2 feels super premium and is a solid controller. I play with only the bottom 2 paddles attached and map them for reload and weapon swapping in FPS games and hand brake or shifting in racing games. Trigger stops are awesome and i love the different D-pad and stick options.
