    Really high quality feel and everything it comes with and how you can adjust triggers and thumbsticks. You can also program the computer for custom profiles for button /paddle mapping. You can also choose a custom color for your center xbox logo to be and change brightness of the light and now order custom colors. This is an amazing controller. One of my few non-buyers remorse purchases for a video game PC player. It definitely made me better by not having to move thumbs from sticks.. must buy if you are in the market for premium controller.

    Had an issue with the Xbox controller elite they replaced it hassle free and now I’m using the new one without any issues love the braided usb c cable btw it’s a really long cable incase you want to unravel the whole cable but really no need for my use. The charging dock is also the traveling case and you have options with changing out the thumb sticks. Now it was a bit getting used to with the back p1-p4 and you can change the R1 and L1 tension.

    Great if you like to play Call of Duty. Can adjust everything for your liking in the settings. Definitely helps to adjust trigger functions and the back buttons for full customization. Also swapped out both sticks for more comfortable game play.

    I have been using this controller for over a year and still works like its brand new. Internal batteries so you just chage it after playing!

    best controller i’ve used for an xbox out right now. it has a weight to it which makes it feel more like a quality controller and the accessory swapping feature is a must have! durability could be better but i almost expect to go through controllers at a slightly faster then average rate because of how competitively i play.

    These look and feel Amazing. They were on sale. The controller isn't that much different from other controllers when playing an actual game. Playing shooting games like: (Battlefield 1 Battlefield 4 Battlefield HardLine Battlefield V Battlefield 2042 Call of Duty MW Ghost recon Wildlands The Division Rainbow Six Siege) did meet my expectations with this controller. The thumb sticks are short, rough and not enough push moving the solider to ho fast this way or that way. Maybe time will tell if this controller adopts to me.

    RED SERIES 2 ELITE

    Great controller. I've been using the elite series 2 controller for years now. Saw this red one on sale during Christmas so I bought it to swap with my normal black one. I always test them after updating and every button and switch worked fine, with no stick drift. Swapped the sticks and Dpad buttons to give both of my controllers a unique look. I use my paddles frequently to play so I can't even use standard controllers anymore.

    When you first pick it up you can feel how much better this controller is than a standard Xbox controller. The removable back paddles, adjustable trigger pull lengths, the interchangeable thumb sticks and D-pad, and the textured rubber grips all bring this controller to a level that’s hard to put into words. Yes, the price tag is a bit steep but with what this has for my gaming, I’ll continue to buy them as needed. I removed the bottom two (longer) back paddles because they were in the way based on how I hold the controller, but I don’t feel it has hurt my gaming and I don’t really miss them. They are very easy to remove as well. Reprogramming the back paddles is also wet easy. I highly recommend this controller!

    A Controller Worth Owning

    I have been using this controller for years and it is worth the investment. My only real complaint is that colored variants of this controller do not come with a charging case (it only comes with a cable) and the extra customizable components. If you plan to buy a color that is not black (the black model is more expensive because it comes with everything), you will have to buy the other components separately.

    I didn’t think the controller was worth it. I decided to buy it with a coupon I found. After using it for a few hours and getting use to the extra controls I am not able to go back to a standard controller. This controller has helped me tremendously. I recommend this to anyone trying to get a slight advantage in game. Also no more batterys!!!

    The piece was in very good condition with all original parts. Works perfectly and overall a very fun addition to my gaming setup. Would recommended for slightly competitive casual players specially for games that require multiple binds or could use multiple binds.

    The X Box Elite Series 2 Core has a very sturdy feel; ergonomically and functionally. Accuracy is improved and the self contained battery has excellent endurance. After buying an Elite Series 2 two (2) months ago, I’ve bought another and this Series 2 Core.
