    This is my second series 2 elite. So i advise being careful, because the joystick can be prone to drifting. Other than that it feels wonderful in the hands. It gives an extra level of precision and feedback. That once you've gotten used to it there is no going back.

    Decided to get this controller after getting my brother one for Christmas. Sturdy, well built controller with tons of features. Absolutely love the adjustable triggers for shooting games and the adjustable tension in the analog sticks!

    This has been a great purchase. I bought it for my teenage son and he actively uses it for gaming. He is rough on controllers and it has been solid.

    I LOVE THIS CONTROLLER! It is a great quality product worth what you are paying in the long run just by saving you money on AA batteries! I completely recommend this and buying the warranty as well, because you never know what could happen but it will and they do a good job at replacing your stuff with their warranty. I fully recommend!

    This controller is very comfortable and I love the back paddles on the controller which comes in handy when playing competitively. Would definitely recommend this controller if you play very seriously.

    This controller is awesome. The price is high, but the materials and build of it make it feel very expensive and worth every penny. It's a little heavier, the buttons feel way better, and it's easy to set up. Worth every penny.

    I was a on the fence when deciding to purchase the Elite Series 2 because I've seen tons of feedback about stick drift but Im glad I went through with the purchase, with a few tweaks in the settings to make the stick not so sensitive I've experienced no stick drift. The build quality is top notch and a huge improvement from the first series!

    I like the durability and easy adjustments but its a bit heavy. Not too bad for the price. I just wish the bottom paddles were placed differently since I'm used to playing on a Scuf. I find it too easy to accidentally press the paddles with how I grip the controller. Over all a great controller!

    This is my weapon, there are many like it but this one is mine! I literally can’t play any game without this controller. Buy this and you’ll never play with another controller... ever. I have had this for almost 1 year and there was some very small stick drift but Microsoft sent me a new one under warranty. Recommended.

    Great controller, love the grips and looks cool. Only complaint is it disconnects randomly. Seemingly when I’m playing zombies and then I die. Microsoft hasn’t issued a patch yet but I’d imagine it’s a software issue as it’s not a range/obstruction issue cuz I’m 5 feet from the dock/Xbox.

    Bad build quality

    I bought this after having to Elite Series 2 controllers fail on me in less than 3 years and decided to try the cheaper Core version to save some money. It didn't go well. The right joystick was loose, and the cap not screwed on tightly and the stick spun freely. I was able to hand tighten it but didn't exactly feel confident at that point. I connected the controller and discovered the right stick was drifting badly out of the box, over 17% percent on input tester. Beyond that, the sticks just didn't feel nearly as good as a standard Elite Series 2, the right stick felt like it was grinding on the shell, not the smooth feel of the original, and the joysticks just overall felt cheaper. The whole controller just felt cheaper in general, and I decided not to pick up another one upon returning it. I'm just going for a cheaper controller at this point. I'm sick of having such bad build quality on $130+ controllers.

    Solid controller. Like the new adjustments to the joysticks and the 3 adjustments for the triggers. Feels sturdier than the v1. Has connectivity issues. May just be a bug with the new xbox. Overall its a great buy if you are serious about gaming or just like to adjust the controls.

    Took me a day or two to get used to, but now I will never go back using a regular $59.99 xbox controller. It's a great remote, especially when you can charge it and not buy batteries. The price is a little too bigh but usually, they have them on clearance, which then brings it to a fair price for what it is
