    Excellent Controller so far. I hope it lives up to its reputation. I'm an avid gamer and have gone through many controllers. So far this is up there, however I think I preferred the arrow Dpad buttons.

    Got this for my son for his birthday. He's a big Fortnite gamer and wanted something that would improve his play. He also loved the color as well.

    Great upgrade from the basic wireless Xbox controller. I believe it was worth the money. Feels great in my hands, and I like having the option of using paddles now. There's also the ability to change the D pad, as well as the knob's with different option's which come in the package, along with a nice protective travel case.

    If you really into gaming and want a better handling feel and configurability, then this is the only option for you.  The materials are much nicer than the standard. The triggers and buttons have a much more better feel. The extra configurability Menu is a great plus as well.

    Time will tell on the grips but it’s already way better than the 1rst version with the built in battery and included chargers and a good battery life. While not as precise as I like in the joysticks they are very good. Triggers are great with more adjustability than previous version. Overall I’d say much better deal than version one even though it cost more, if the grips don’t fall off that is, which they shouldn’t.

    I love this thing. I never thought I would spend money like this on a a controller, but I had some xmas money to burn so I did it. This feels very sturdy and well-made. The added, removable, and programmable buttons on the trigger side have been great for games that have a lot of button pushing. This controller is customizable with magnetic thumb knobs on each side plus the directional pad. No regrets on this purchase.

    Hi all, really liking the ergonomic feel of the elite 2. Love the accessory app customization option settings. Solid metal feel with pedals. Love how I can change the trigger sensitivity for FPS. No battery issues for long gaming session. I have the case, when playing set the elite 2 in there and it charges.

    Best controller on the market. I would recommend getting the service plan though. Unfortunately these still get stick drift!
