    It’s so much better than a regular control due to the weight mainly. It’s heavier than a regular remote which I really like. I don’t use most of the bells and whistles this thing has, but no more changing batteries was enough for me to shell out for this controller, everything else is gravy.

    The controller is very well built. The ability to customise every part of this controller from tension in the sticks to multi configuration of the front and back controls separates this controller from others. As a long time medium hand size Scuf controller user I was skeptical. I won’t go back. 5 hour a day gamer giving this review.

    Due to all the negative feedbacks on the series 1, I didn’t buy the 1st one. This time I took my chance hoping that the 2nd is much improved. It is an awesome controller. MS addressed many issues reported from the 1st one. I am loving it so far! The only downside is the price. Yes, it’s not cheap and with this money, you can buy a new console with little bit of extra.

    This controller is pretty hard to use and it definitely isn’t for most people. If you have the money and feel like paddles would be best for you then I would definitely recommend. But, if you are more of a casual player I would say try looking for a cheaper controller.

    My 13yo son has been gaming since he was 2years old, so if a product doesn’t meet his expectations, he will stop using it. When he asked for this controller, I honestly thought it was another “worthless” buy. But I was wrong!!! He absolutely loves this controller and boasts about all the perks this controller provides! Def was worth every penny! (:

    Alright so for the price I say it’s pretty good. I actually got it at a slight discount so that’s a bigger win for me in my opinion. The controller is solid the extra stuff it comes with is awesome and the fact it’s rechargeable is perfect. I haven’t had any issues with it so far. I would recommend it!

    This is one of the best controllers for series S. You can adjust tension . Very strong thumb sticks. If you decide can add additional accessories for more options. Upgradeable.

    Fits my punisher pc setup perfect. Love the grips for my palms and I’m glad it doesn’t have triggers on the back. You can add them if you choose the thumb sticks are nice. I don’t notice sweaty hands using this either

    Good controller, but buy the extended warranty through best buy. It's worth the price, as I've gone through several elite series 2 controllers due some build quality issues.

    Haven’t had it for long but works great. If you want a scuff type controller that works perfect and is programmable on the Xbox through the settings page. Highly recommended. But definitely get the geek squad warranty as other people have said it can break and Microsoft doesn’t corporate well with the 1 year warranty it comes with through them.

    Great product if you play a lot. The recharge feature alone was worth it for me. No more changing out batteries. Adjusting the hair triggers and fine tuning the sticks is a great asset in helping to get that slight edge in FPS. I Recommend the controller. Price is a bit high or I would have scored it higher.

    Hands down the best controller for the Xbox

    Pricy, but worth it if you spend a significant amount of time on the console. Sized and weighted perfectly 9may be small for those with large hands, though)! Paddle controls can take some getting used to and will occasionally cause issues with unintended hits on a given paddle. Swappable user controls and configurability are outstanding!
