    It's the base elite so no back paddles included, if you've used one you already know it's one of the best. The rest comes to personal preferences, I however choose this until I find something better.

    The removable paddle,d-pad, and thumb grips are nice and the trigger locks are cool. But 2 months in and i got bad stick drift. Customer sevice for 1 year warranty that comes with it is arguably the worst part of this whole thing . That alone makes the controller not worth it honestly. I like the feel and weight and the portable charging dock with the controller . All in all decent controller but i think im a try the scuff controller next

    Great controller! I like the customization of the button layout and joystick movement options. make for the best gaming experience. Good placement for paddle buttons with XL hands doesn’t feel awkward. Great Buy

    Really like all the new added features. New grips feel great controller as a whole feels fantastic. LT & RT Have new lil grip textures feel pretty good nice lil addition. The new thumb sticks are better than the old ones, but my only complaint though is it only comes with one tall thumb stick. Also wanna mention the tightening of the thumb sticks is really cool. Having 3 controller profiles for different games over the old 2 nice addition too. The carrying case with the ability to charge while in the case is very awesome it can also be charged outside case with a lil stand like thing (doesn’t need the lil stand) it can still charge and play like v1 even though not too happy with the battery being internal not removable on v2. Very nice to have such a long usb c wired cord too. Came with 14 day ultimate game pass (Minecraft Dungeons just came out on gamepass :) overall very satisfied with purchase!

    Great controller. Love all the extra buttons on the backside. Makes playing Fortnite much easier. The only change I would make is having a mic on the controller like PlayStation does. other than that it definitely has a high end feel to it.

    In my opinion was one of the best controllers I've used. High build quality for sure. Again my opinion. I've bought quite a lot from Best Buy and they have never let me down.

    Best controller. Totally worth it after breaking so many. I got the protection plan. But they have worked very well. I have 3 of these and so far so good. The gameplay experience is great as well. Customized game settings are really nice.

    First and foremost, the build quality is exceptional. From the moment you hold it, the Elite Series 2 exudes durability and sophistication. The matte finish feels premium in hand, and the rubberized grips provide a reassuring hold during even the most intense gaming sessions. It's evident that Microsoft has paid meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring that every component feels solid and well-crafted.

    Amazing controller, I always forget to charge my controller and this never dies. The usb c charging makes it quick and the customization is incredible. From a gaming standpoint my wife still says I still suck at COD but it’s much better in my opinion.

    although i don’t use all the paddles in the back, using even 2 is a big game changer. also being able to change the button sensitivity is great!

    I absolutely love this controller, it elevates my FPS play style to new heights especially with popular titles like Apex Legends. If you play it, you know what im talking about. Im talking near perfect beams, key mechanics easier to execute due to the back pedals (B-Hopping), and ease of customization not only through physical changes, but the plethora of software changes that literally adjust the way you aim and shoot. Im not a pro gamer, by any stretch, but since I've had this controller. I went from 1-2 kill games to 5-10 kill games. Im a warzone player too, beams go both ways my friend. Sony what are yall doing? Where are yall native pro controllers?
