    I got this Remote Controller for my Xbox. However, after getting my gaming PC recently, I found that it works well with it. I especially like the back paddles and the fact that you can customize them to whatever button you want. The controller feels solid and comfortable on my hands. I do not think I will be going back to any other controller after using the Elite 2

    Had to purchase this controller twice and here is why. I bought the “Open Box” the is supposedly checked by the Geek Squad. The first controller the right shoulder button was dead. I mean i can check this using the Xbox diagnostics.. so clearly no one at the Geek Squad checked this unit. The next open box in “excellent condition “ was missing the charging cable and not in the retail box. The Best Buy refurb is a joke..avoid it and shop Amazon… they actually check their devices.

    This controller feel great in the hand qnd is easy to use. This completely changes everything when you play competitive games and helps even thinga up a bit in the "cross platform" world. Between never having to pull my fingers from the thumbsticks and the hair triggers you shave enough ms off your actions to give you a greater chance against the PC guys... I dont miss the mouse and keyboard anymore now.
