    Must have controller when playing games as longer battery life, easier rechargability, paddles, and stick tensioner

    Awesome controller! Best controller for the money I bought a elite controller before and it lasted 4 years before it gave me any problems! So i am buying another one!

    Love how I don’t have to buy more batteries over and over. The grips help hold my controller better as well.

    Nice High End Controller but is it worth the Price

    The Elite Series 2 is a really nice high end controller. The Customization of buttons is super nice for series gamers while the build quality and general in hand feel are far better than the standard Xbox Controller. Also really love that it comes with it's own charging dock. But is it worth the retail price? In my opinion, No. Look for it on sale for around $139. I feel like that price is a little more in line with where it should be.

    Excellent weight. Seemingly durable(I’ve dropped it quite a bit but it is still early). Amazingly customizable and I can use it with my pc. Best purchase I’ve ever made.

    This is my third elite controller, and it works well. It feels good to use and does what it's meant to do. I docked it by one star because my past two have had the shoulder buttons fail, which seems to be a recurring problem for these controllers. I have yet to see if this issue has been addressed by Microsoft or if the same problem is still present.

    Worth the high price tag. The extra weight of this controller is Nice in hand. The customization of the back petals are great. The only bad part is the price.

    Huge improvement over previous Elite controller

    Best controller on the market. Buttons are extremely responsive. Trigger pulls now have two settings to shorten the pull resulting in quicker shots fired in first person shooters. Power button is a shorter push to turn on and off. It just feels like a high end controller. My old one has a thumb stick that would drift upwards when not in use, other buttons felt like you had to mash down on. This is more responsive, more clicky if that makes sense. If you owned the previous Elite you’ll love this even more. Carrying case allows you to charge while in case. Battery life doubled. This is a 10/10.

    Caught this while on sale and it's still holding up strong after a few months. Well worth picking up if you can catch it on sale. No stick drift yet, so fingers crossed.

    Great controller very sturdy and can adjust to your comfort it even comes with a little tool to loosen or tighten each stick and if you drop it they fall out instead of break it’s brilliant

    I’ve always been a fan of these controllers. Love that you can tighten down the sticks, change how far you need to press the triggers, and also save 3 different settings for games.

    First Elite controller, and the difference is noticeable. Power button clicks firmly, weight is heavier than normal controller, and triggers feel firmer. I feel the rear buttons are a bit of a gimmick (or I haven't gotten to set them up right) but for right now they get in the way. Definitely hoping it'll last more than my traditional controller, which usually fails because the right trigger ends up becoming sticky.

    Solid controller.. everything felt high quality and a lot of ways to customize.. the only reason i returned it is because i want to try a controller with paddles beside each other versus on top of each other...

    The controller is over all good the buttons need to be sealed more to keep dirt and dust out of them.
