    Great controller but this is my second replacement because of stick drift and top bumper buttons not responding unless pressed really hard.

    This is an amazing remote to have, especially with shooter games. You can make adjustments that cater to your own personal playing style.

    This controller, although fantastic when purchased. It started to break down on me a month in to using it, where it would not turn on unless I connected the controller to a power source, even after charging. For the price, issues like this should not be happening at all $180 plus protections plan. The sad part is that without the issues, this would of been the best controller for x box hands down. In fact, I returned it and miss it. I hope Microsoft comes out with the Elite 3 with better software/hardware because I would purchase them in a heart beat if improvements are made.

    The Xbox Elite Series 2 controller is the Xbox one controller at it's best. The weight and feel of the controller is superior to the default Xbox One controller. Can't go back after using this

    Pros - Great fit and feel. Easy to use. Long lasting charge. Easy to setup. Cons - still not as hardy as it should be - stick drift happens within a year. Buttons break / wear out within a year.

    This controller feels great! The texture grips help keep your hands on the controller! The rear buttons make it better for multiplayer games so that you can also be slightly ahead of your enemy!

    Bought the series 1 and had to get the series 2. Takes competitive to a whole new level. Being able to use more that just thumb and index when using a controller, makes a huge difference.

    Upgraded to this controller after my regular one died. This one is great. The paddles make for quicker gameplay and the battery lasts all day easily. Plus it feels more solid than the regular ones.
