    Battery life and customization are appreciated, while the controller’s weight and in-hand feel are much more comfortable than basic/standard controller.

    My first console was the Xbox 360 amd i loved that thing. But havent had a console since then. Ive been playing pc for a long time and I had a PS4 controller that I bought from a friend and connected through Bluetooth. But its nothing when compared to this. Better feeling, ease of use, just love it. Just make sure to get rhe app to have it work right in your pc

    Not a really good gamer, so anything that helps is a plus. First time owning elite series. The controller feels very solid and haven't had any problems like the complaints I have seen online (A button sticking, etc). I think it's helped and my only complaint is I'm not quite used to the paddles--they make it hard to get a good grip without accidentally pressing them. That means I'm accidentally switching your primary weapon to melee while under fire in a FPS match.... :/ I don't plan to disable or remove the paddles because I want to get used to using them. I'm ditching my 2015-era Xbox One for the XBox One-X so let's see how this performs with the new rig!

    Its good, but the quality with the buttons are hit or miss. I believe there was a lawsuit against M$ over button issues.

    These are so hard to come by so I bought one just incase my elite 1 broke again. Decided to open it and use it because I was having issues with a new headset and wanted to see if the controller was the problem. Went ahead and played a game of COD Warzone and haven't put it back in the box. Grips feel great and they fixed the issue i had with the elite 1 when you used the quick setting on bumpers for shooting games you wouldn't get much of a response if you tried to drive a car for example GTA5 or COD warzone. Only complaint is the paddles aren't as large as the elite 1s so i swapped them out and been using ever since.

    my all time favorite controller, well worth the money, everything about it is premium, the only bad thing about it is that it will eventually get the stick drift, I've gone through 3 elite controllers but I keep coming back, best to get the warranty, if people are asking why I think its the best controller even tho it has a major flaw, my response is this, a lot of other controllers now have the same issue, the difference is that this controller is just built better overall

    I really do think Xbox is making these controllers better than how they launched with the black ones, it’s solid, has amazing battery life, pretty much get 40 hours out of it per charge which compared to my ps5 controller, that’s night and day, love how you can change the Xbox logo color in settings as well!, great triggers for FPS games.
