    I’ve had these controllers a lot over the years. I love the textured thumb sticks and textured grips around the controller. One of the best controller on the market for Microsoft. Highly recommend this controller

    Better in most ways, but some trade offs…

    The elite series 2 is better in many ways than the Series 1, but does have some trade offs. You can read about the updates on the Msft website. So I just tell you what the negatives over the series one are. First the battery isn’t replaceable, so ones it’s capacity starts to go down, you’re out of luck. The other difference I’ve found is the textured grips are definitely not as sticky as the series one. Sure the texture looks and feels the same, this feels more like textured plastic than textured rubber. It’s more noticeable the longer you use it.

    After needing to replace my series one elite controller, I was able to get in an order for pickup for the series two. And while I haven’t encountered any drift issues, I have a sticky/defunct A button. So now I have one dedicated paddle after doing some remapping of the paddle controls to manipulate the function of the A button. It’s not ideal, however it works in a pinch, took some adjustments on my case, as I had not used the paddles on my series one. Lucked out on the left and right bumper/trigger buttons as they all work without a hitch. I do like how you can adjust the tension in the control sticks a major improvement over the series one, though I do see this eventually leading towards drift issues, especially since I have mine pretty much as loose as possible, FPS and the like, gaming pretty much faster/wider range of motion. To that end I did get geek squad coverage, should a drift issue arise. I can understand why the price may be a no go for some, but if you’ve got a Series S/X, then why not have a controller on the same par (more or less)?

    Controller is excellently customizable, easy to use, but slightly over-priced compared to comparable controllers in my opinion. Only really negative is the paddles aren't as good as some other controllers - had to rearrange them to feel better for play.

    It’s amazing quality with all the bells and whistles, but probably not good enough to warrant an almost TWO HUNDRED dollar price tag. You will feel buyers remorse for awhile, but very good quality - it’s Xbox’s best controller ever made, period.

    This is the best controller I’ve gotten in a while! I was hesitant to spend the money for a controller but it was definitely worth it as it is so easy to customize to the kind of player you are. The detachable thumb sticks and paddles are easy to customize for crouching quickly and moving fast in the COD game. The case is sturdy and charging is simple and fast. From what I can read you’ll also be able to use this controller for the upcoming Xbox system so worth the purchase!

    Throw your Scuf controller in the trash. Go for the Elite Series 2…much more nicer and does everything the Scuf does..plus it doesn’t make a $400 paperweight like mine did. GET THE 2 YEAR GEEK SQUAD WARRANTY because you can experience some issues but they will swap it right out.

    Good controller, expensive and with a flaw

    Overall the controller is quite good, albeit very expensive. The shorter paddles that require more pressure to activate is a huge much needed improvement. The 3 levels of trigger locks is nice as is the 3 different on controller profiles. As for the adjustments of the thumb stick stiffness, I don't think this is a feature most people will use and is more of a gimmick. The biggest issue for me is the grip material used on the controller. The grip material actually slippery. This is something that everyone complains about. I don't understand why Microsoft used a slipper material. If you can handle the slipperiness of the controller it is an excellent controller. For me the slippery grips is too much for a controller of this price and is why I will be returning the controller.
