    Love having more options to customize. I feel the price is a bit high for the value of those buttons. Battery lasts long and charges easily. The remote is well made.

    Same size as the series X controller. This is the elite 2 without the extra sticks and D-pad.

    Controller is very comfortable. When playing the controller somehow would select As i pressed the Y button and changing the screen view. I have been playing this same game for years with "regular" MS controller no problems. Configured the button not to be used. This was a mistake when it changed my view i could not change it back! Although very comfortable and seemingly well built will be returning the controller. Thank you for the Best buy total membership for extended returns. Very over priced for what you get. At least in my opinion.

    I wondered if this controller would be worth the money. It is absolutely worth every cent. Heavier than the original but the headphone jack, extra buttons, and charging capabilities are fantastic.

    Saw a bunch of reviews on this product and was worried about durability due to the Elite Series 1 controller being poorly built, however, this seems to be sturdy and put together well.
