    It doesn't come with all the bells and whistles of the Elite Series 2, but it's still the best gaming controller ever made.

    Best controller to game with hands down

    This is by far the best controller I’ve ever owned.(yes including the PS5 dual sense) Only reason I didn’t give a 5 star rating is I’ve had multiple elite series controllers in the past, and there are always issues that eventually occur. Shouldn’t happen so frequently with hardware that costs this much, but it always seems to unfortunately. That being said, I absolutely love gaming with the elite series 2. It’s extremely useful, and now that I’m accustomed to it, I can’t go back to a standard Xbox controller.

    Not quite the revolution in controller design you're hoping for. But you can assign Keyboard keys to the buttons too, for those games that allow M+K and Controller play at the same time. I don't regret my purchase yet. Being able to reload or use a melee with the back buttons, in certain games is pretty awesome.

    Good, but expect stick drift

    Replaced multiple of these controllers that all exhibited some level of stick drift brand new from the factory. Microsoft elite controllers are known to have looser manufacturing tolerances versus their standard controllers. You can find many examples online of people saying their controller exhibited the same behavior. If the stick drift doesn’t bother you, it is otherwise a great controller.

    I was looking for a gaming controller for when I choose to play games that a keyboard and mouse would be a difficult thing to use on certain games. Saw this and I really like the buttons on the back and after using it after a while I don't even touch the button on the front cause the back ones feel more natural for me and very responsive. Definitely a good buy.

    Nice weight, very sturdy and comfortable to use. The only bad side is that these controllers unfortunately do not last! They are great controllers, but must be replaced about every year or so... I've decided it's worth to buy & replace because I actually really like this controller over any other basic wireless ones on the market.

    Its a very good controller, i like the trigger function and the interchangeable thumb sticks and d-pad. even the pack pedals are amazing and helps me play better without having to move my fingers. i would recommend but take care of it because the switch cover on the back broke off but it still works fine. Also its easy to lose pieces as they can fall off pretty easily.

    Good quality. Feels nice in your hands. I like being able to adjust the joystick sensitivity. My one complaint is it did not come with the back paddles and adjustable joysticks, but third party options were relatively cheap, but with the high cost of the controller I feel like it should come with.

    I absolutely love playing with this controller. At first, I was hesitant because of the price but after a while I feel like the price is more than a bargain. I can use it for my Xbox, my computer and my cell phone. I can customize it for movies, individual games and streaming, soo much more. It's insanely customizable. The weight and durability are amazing. Gaming just isn't the same without it. By far one of my favorite purchases of all time. Don't even get me started on the battery life... It lasts for like 20 hrs, sometimes more.
