    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.

    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!!!!

    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.

    Its such a nicely made controller I no longer use the regular ones. It does have a very small amount of stick drift over time but nothing like the old controllers. Highly recommend.

    Amazing controller for your xbox or computer. Comes with a charging stand or you can directly plug into the controller. Paddles are removable and all the buttons can be remapped using the xbox or computer software.
