    Bought this for my son. From what I gather from him this controller is excellent compared to the non elite series. One of his favorite features is the built in battery. He said if this one ever goes kaput he would want another one just maybe a different color.

    Must have for gamers. This core elite series 2 doesn't come with case or paddles but is a replacement for the elite series 2 controller. In my opinion I would buy the extended warranty so when thumbsticks or bumpers wear out you can easily replace.

    Bought this as a gift for a friend and they absolutely love it. Remappable back buttons, adjustable tension sticks, and you can cycle between full throw triggers and hair triggers. Its good value for the price.

    Works amazingly with many different options for customization. Additionally you have the ability swap out your joysticks for different play styles to reach the optimal results you desire. This controller will also maintain a charge for significantly longer than other controller's.

    Best of the best. I had the original Elite controller (and still do.. 4 years and going strong). When I got the Series X Console, it seemed like a miss pairing to use a generic controller with such a beautiful console. Series 2 Elite builds on the strengths of the original... refined paddles, digitally selectable profiles, additional trigger stop options etc. it also has a great feature of being able to charge the internal battery while it in its case. A++ device.... that price tag tho....

    Looks and feels great. Did not contain the hotkey bars I was expecting that came with the previous models. Still, I was able to take my old ones and use those. Other than that, it’s great!

    I love the xbox elite controller and the way you can customize the controls and tailor it to the game your friends playing. Aldo bought an accessory pack on amazon so i can custom the d pad, triggers and joystick. Only complaint is the price it is pretty pricey.

    The best controller on the market. I’ve had 2 of the original Elite Controller and this improved on it in every way. Better battery life, a case with built-in charging cradle, better (long lasting) grips, multiple thumb sticks, and thumb stick tension? They literally checked every box I could’ve asked for. It lasts longer too—none of that drift issue plaguing the first generation. I have used this every day since it came out and the only issue I’ve had was hand cramps from playing too long!

    The Elite controller is unmatched. My gameplay has increased. From a quicker trigger to more responsive joysticks. I would recommend to buy two.

    Excellent controller. It’s replacing the standard controller and the horrible SCUF controller. My recommendation is to stick with OEM items.

    The Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 is a premium gaming accessory that delivers both in terms of performance and customization. With adjustable-tension thumbsticks, interchangeable components, and a suite of customizable profiles, it offers a high level of personalization to suit various play styles. The build quality is robust, featuring a textured grip and durable materials that enhance comfort during extended sessions. While it's priced at a premium, its features, including the ability to fine-tune sensitivity and remap buttons, provide a tangible advantage for competitive gamers. Overall, it’s a top-tier choice for serious Xbox enthusiasts looking for precision and adaptability.

    I've had the worst luck with XBOX controllers. They are by far the most unreliable controllers on the market. I am extremely careful, gentle with my controllers what frustrates me the most. This controller does have a tendency to frequently disconnect from my XBOX. Sometimes I have to completely power off my console or reconnect by pairing the controller again. To my stupidity, I did not get the protection plan on this controller, so I guess I am out of luck. With XBOX my controllers usually last 1-2 years with no wear and tear at all. Actually, my controller that came with the XBOX lasted months before not working and it was just a backup controller that was hardly used. With the money that I paid for this controller if it does not last I will definitely be switching to Playstation 5. My Playstation 4 controllers are over 5 years old and work perfectly fine. I will say the quality of the controller is great and it feels great in the hands. It also has some well-balanced weight to it which feels good as well. Buttons and pad are adjustable and it does come with a nice carrying case.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
