    Theres really wrong with this controller but i would say still get that 2 years protection plan from best buy since it does drift over time. I havent gotten that issue yet but it could drift so get that 2 years.

    Is you’re a gamer gamer this is for you. But if you’re a casual player then don’t even bother. Great controller for someone looking to do crazy gaming.

    The controller is a good upgrade from the series 1 controller. The controller is lighter and feels much better. It uses at usb-c charging cable I'm glad I upgraded phones to the Note 10 plus. I mostly play three games and being able to program three profiles to the controller is great. Playing with it on COD is great and really fun.

    Sturdy construction, quality feel. A lot more durable, IF you get one that was assembled well. I’ve had friends who bought brand new ones that had shoulder button issues in the first month.

    I love it! It didn’t come with all the extra buttons or joy sticks but I had extra ones. Elite controllers are great for building in Fortnite.

    Love the feel of this controller, and how comfortable it is. Paddles work great and very unique touch with the case being a charger for the controller so you can play wireless, do feel a slight drift in the right analog stick which is kinda disappointing for the price.

    The hair triggers are what I like the most about the changes that they made compared to the 1st series. The paddles are different but in a good way the feel better but a bit smaller. The grip and weight are great. Recharged battery built in, idk if it’ll be a good thing or bad but the charging options are pretty cool.

    Everything about this controller is quality. It feels INCREDIBLE. This is the best controller I have ever bought, to date. The buttons, triggers, and sticks feel very well made and the customization options are excellent. It's expensive but if you care about quality, this is THE controller to get for Xbox and mobile/computer gaming.

    I have only been able to use the controller a few times but so far has been excellent. The almost unlimited configurations for different games/player styles makes it very versatile. The button mapping is very easy and informative. I would/have recommended to other X Box players.

    I have the Elite 1 which I love. So to be so impressed by this was amazing. The extra trigger setting is awesome, along with the added resistance on the joysticks. Even adding the paddles underneath feel more comfortable. You wont regret getting this controller. The only down part is trying to use a stock controller feels weird.
