    I have had this for a few weeks now and have about 20 hours of use with no issues. Had the Elite series one, this one seems a little more sturdy. Time will tell, the Elite series one held up fairly well with heavy use. replaced the bumpers once and the rubber was coming off. I like the interchangeable sticks and that you can adjust them.

    This is a great controller! I use it for all of my Xbox gaming, but bought it for first and third-person shooter games. The adjustments I can make have been helping me game play for shooter games. The grip is definitely better and nicer than the regular Xbox controller. No problems with the controller so far.

    I have these congrollers and love them. When they go on sale for this much, I grabbed another. Just in case I ever needed one. That’s how much I like this controller.

    I loved the first Elite controller but the Series 2 blows it away! Very well constructed. The stick tension, 3 step trigger locks, shorter upper paddles, 3 profiles instead of two, and improved bumpers are just amazing! Definitely worth the price if you wanna up your game.

    This is a good controller but for almost $200 dollars the ABXY buttons tend to feel flat some times without a good bounce back. I would have a tough time recommending it for the price. It is better than the standard controller but not by much.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I’d give it a 5 if I hadn’t had to replace it 3 times. These controllers are prone to random buttons failing. Get geek squad warranty. When it’s working it’s a… game changer (I’ll see myself out).
