    Big difference noticed when playing with an elite series controller vs the standard xbox ones. Handles have some grip to them that feel nice when hands get clammy

    Much Better than the TB stealth Ultra

    I swapped from the Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra controller, and haven’t regretted it a bit. My only complaint is that I lost my capture button because it was replaced with the profile swap button, and I have no way to remap it. But the ability to use one of the paddles as a function key, allowing the other buttons to have dual uses, depending on if the function button is pressed or not, made it not that big of a deal.

    Bought this as a replacement to my old worn series 2 controller and it is great, just make sure to keep your back paddles.

    Love this controller and for me it was totally worth the extra money. (vs the standard xbox controller.) Before, I was going through xbox controllers every 9 months or so. (I replace them once a button starts to fail) For me, this controller has lasted over 2.5 years. I did start to get cosmetic damages (glued-on grips were starting to come apart) and battery charging problems started about 18 to 20 months in- but before I would be on my 3rd or 4th controller in that same time frame! button re-mapping is awesome! and the bottom triggers changed the way I play (but it did take some time to get used to) I used to have a problem with hitting the thumb stick buttons on accident and moving the shoulder buttons to the bottom made things faster and easier. The controller is pretty much done now, but its still doing its job (it needs to be tethered for power and the grips need to be replaced) I hope it holds out till version 2 comes out.

    Great Entry Point for Pro Controllers

    The price is competitive comparitave to other pro controllers on the market. The customization options offered in the bundle are nice. Have not had an issue with drift or any buttons not working out of the box. With normal play, the controller should last about as long as a normal comtroller would especially if you keep it in its case. The case allows for the dock to be connected to the usb and charge the controller while protected inside. The Xbox accessories app works nicely when mapping different profiles for the controller as well. If you have concerns with the controller malfunctioning, buy an extended warranty.

    Love how you can Customize your buttons to the back paddles easily through the app and plenty of joysticks and able to tighten the joysticks and accessories to find the one you like. Did get stick drift relatively fast but I do use it a lot.

    Great controller if you have arthritis issues

    I was hesitant about the price of this controller, but I am so, so, so glad I went through with buying it. I suffer from hand and thumb issues, and wanted to try a different controller. This Elite Series 2 was recommended by almost every site I researched, and by multiple arthritis forums. My other option was to cut down on my Xbox play time, but right now it helps keep my hands and mind busy during my layoff from work due to quarantine. The features that I (and my hands!) appreciate the most are the extra paddles on the back, and the ability to customize the tension on the joysticks. That was a lifesaver for my poor hands! I prefer the tension to be on the tightest setting so my thumb joints don't have to stretch so far to manipulate the joysticks. I also further adjusted their tension in the controller customization in the Xbox Accessories app on my xbox. It is only day 2 that I have had it, and it's gotten a few hours of use, and I absolutely love how accessible and customizable it is. It is a bit on the heavy side, but it is the only mark against it in my book.
