    A must have. Great quality, the heft of the controller adds to the ease of use. Adjustable settings are unique and add to the customization experience. Just a bit on the pricey side.

    Great customization and comfort. This controller may be the best product Xbox had released outside of the console.

    No other controller compares to the versatility of this controller. If you want true gaming at an elite level, this is the one. Don't worry about the price, the experience pays for itself.

    The Elite Series 2 is a great follow up to the original elite controller. Microsoft has seemed to listen to all the Series 1 feedback and improve upon that. I didn't think it were possible, but the Series 2 feels even more solid than the original.

    Switched from a PS4 scuf. This controller is more durable and lasts longer. The 1 year warranty is worth the purchase as well.

    I would like the A,X,Y,B to be quite a bit more responsive and not so nitpickey about how they are pressed. The overall feel and ability to customize how the controller plays are absolutely superb.

    The controller weight feels amazing, the battery life is plentiful, and the finish is great. Been using non-stop and had zero issues. Its a wonderful replacement to the first elite which i still have and have been using for years. No complaints.

    This is the best controller out there today. I’m using it with the infamous Xbox series x and it is great! The high price tag is a lot to swallow, but if they dropped the price to $125, I think that is the right target.

    Works good, I like all the features and abilities with it but they could work on the quality a little bit more, seems like the buttons aren’t as responsive as they should.
