    Sure it is expensive but if you plan on using it for a lot or for a long period of time then it is worth it. It just feels better than the standard controllers and I believe it gives more control during gameplay.

    Great controller to be able to switch from FPS settings to driver settings. I only run 2 of the paddles. and makes jumping and reloading much easier

    Gotta be honest...if you have/play an xbox, its THE controller. Unless you go the Scuf route. Its a little on the pricey side, though.

    I like that is heavier and not as slippery as the standard controller. The series 2 is improved but if you're a heavy gamer it will still wear out. But that's what the coverage is for. Also, love that is rechargeable.

    This would be my 4 th elite. Had hopes for the new gen elite but its just a failure. If youre playing any fps game ,this controller would last maybe 4 or 5 month. Stick drift, button failures and back buttons not responding. It was a head ache especially when you play competitive

    The Elite series 2 is a great upgrade over its original model. It feels more tactile and comfortable to hold due to the increased amount of grip. The USB C port is also a great addition that it had over the original.

    Its a really nice controller. Make sure you play with the app on pc or xbox to get the most out of it. Its got quite a few options to play with and the ability to have extra profiles is really nice.
