    It's an amazing controller, but it is expensive.

    I game primarily on my pc, but I also primarily use a controller. I know, blasphemous. But for me using a controller is the most comfortable gaming experience. This is the king of controllers. Peak controller. No comparison. It's plug in (or wirelessly connect) and play. 99% of games support it. There really hasn't been a single flaw that I've run into. It feels fantastic and the build quality is something you'd expect a $180 controller to have. Obviously if you have $180 to spend on a controller, there really isn't too much competition, and rightfully so, as this thing has reached peak controller. I recommend it, but really only if you want the best of what controllers have to offer, and can afford it.

    It’s a fancy Xbox controller. Paddles on the back and interchangeable sticks. Now has a rechargeable battery built in and a charging stand. So far works great. No complaints.

    Amazing for my Windows gaming PC. Sturdy, easy to charge, and fully customizable control is great for all of my gaming needs. Vibration can get a little out of control, but you can adjust to your liking.

    This is simply the best controller in gaming, and the quality is much improved over the original version of the controller. I think Xbox has a gem of a product and will continue to innovate and improve.

    I bought an Xbox Series X system. Really love it but the controller seemed a bit weak. The buttons were loose, the joysticks were not real tight, and no texture to the body. A friend recommended I buy the Elite Series 2. Oh my gosh!!! The buttons are way better, the joysticks can be tightened or loosened, great texture with no slippage, and extra buttons on the backs. Everything can be programmed and you can setup three different profiles. And I got it on sale!!!!
