    Weights good, the grip is better, interchangeable sticks and d pad is better, and the paddles are amazing. If you can learn to use them naturally in the way you can map them to different buttons. You can become a great player

    One of the best controllers for gaming on Xbox/PC Good for if you need either a replacement for an older elite controller or if you already have the extra attachments

    Got on sale and open box so decent deal, bumper went out and had the controller replaced under warranty with a new one about a year in, new one works great so far, not sure if it’s worth the extra money compared to the original pro but does a great job regardless

    Great price verse the upgraded one , we had the upgraded one with the case and extra accessories but when it broke and we needed a new onw my son decided on this one instead since he never used the case and all the accessories that came with the other one anyway so the price difference was worth it for us , the only thing I would say is that it would be nice if all the colors were available in both options

    Better than the default controller!

    The Red Microsoft Elite Series 2 Controller serves as a budget-friendly alternative to the premium Elite Series 2 model. While it lacks the additional accessories included with the standard version, it features a plastic-coated body with rubberized grips, rather than the full rubberized texture found on the premium model. Despite these differences, this controller is a noticeable improvement over the standard Xbox controllers. For a slightly higher price, it offers an impressive battery life and the convenience of built-in recharging. If you're looking for an affordable entry point into the Elite Series 2 lineup, this is a solid option. However, I personally prefer the texture and included accessories of the default Elite Series 2 controller, as they provide a more premium and comfortable experience. Overall, I’d rate this model 4 stars: it’s a great step up from the basic Xbox controllers but falls short of the comfort and quality of the black Elite Series 2 controller.

    Works as expected. I love the color. I had my last Elite controller for 4 years no stick drift. Only replaced it because the grip started peeling off.

    You know one thing that I personally love? Its Simple, something that makes my life easier. And I can personally verify that this controller makes my life easier. Not too brag or anything, but ever since ive purchased this controller I have been untouchable in games. From fifa, to call of duty, I mean even fortnite. Im dishing it out all day with these sticks. Ive most definitely experience an improvement in my overall gaming experience since purchasing so would definitely recommend.

    Love the way this thing feels in my hands. I don't use the extra buttons so it's nice how you can remove them. The thumbsticks feel nice too and you can swap them out for different ones.

    Out for all the Xbox controllers I've had in the past this remote has been known to last 2 or more years without having stick drift. The buttons do not get stuck or lag while playing online.

    Best controller on the market, just make sure to get warranty in case of stick drif or other issues since the controllers aren't cheap.

    If you aren’t rocking an elite Xbox controller; you’re not reaching your full capacity as a gamer. This enhances every aspect of how you game. Just accept it and buy it

    The controller is great. It’s heavier compared to most other controllers, which is something I like. The trigger stops are nice for most games I play. Along with the four buttons on the back you can use to map buttons to.
