    It’s an awesome controller for the price, I was just simply unaware it did not come with the extra accesorices and case, regardless the controller is still the same very premium elite 2 controller.

    I hesitated for the longest time as whether to pick this up since, yes, it is a bit pricey. However, I have no regrets having owned now for several months. Very premium feel to it from the grips, buttons, triggers...just all around. I have had family members who have gone on to buy it after having used mine. Quality also feels solid so I'm hoping it will give me a few years of usage!

    Feels like an elite controller. I was happy to purchase this at a discount. It works very well. Feels expensive and smooth. That is just out of the box. It has multiple triggers you can add as well as different knobs.

    If you would like the All in experience, this controller is for you! It comes with everything from the paddles to a case and charging stand. You could go with the core version, but those dont come with any accessories. Overall great controller and great experience!

    Best Controller ever made for xbox! A little pricey, but worth it, you no longer need actual batteries, and you can replace literally any gesture from any button for the paddles! Works excellent with Warzone. I used to mess up all my controllers from double pressing the joy stick to sprint, now with this controller, I don't have to use the joy stick button, and replaced it using the paddle! So much smoother and improves your gameplay !

    The Elite Series 2 controller is one of, if not, my favorite controllers ok the market. Its very comfortable to hold in your hands, and offers tons of customizability for many different games and play styles. This is a must for any xbox user.

    I had a hard time believing that a controller could possibly be worth what is charged for the elite. After having several friends insist on trying it out I took the leap. I liked it so much I got a second as a Christmas gift for a family member. It feels great in the hands. Is very responsive. Honestly this should be the standard controller. The regular ones feel like a joke after this.

    I was not expecting to love this controller as much as I do. My experience with different games and how you can have 3 different types of settings for different games is awesome. You can also have the light different color.

    I have owned two Elite 2 controllers in the past so buying this was a no-brainer. Love the red and black color scheme. It is definitely a great choice for anyone who is just looking for a replacement controller without paying full price for all the extra accessories

    Good improvement over the original but....

    The new Gen 2 Elite controller is much better constructed over the original Gen 1 Elite especially with the grips and new metal bumper frame but, with my new Elite out of box, the right and left stick feel slightly loose and the right stick is already suffering from a downwards stick drift and it hasn't even been broken in yet. Good controller regardless but, check the controller to be sure of any potential out of box issues.

    The Good, the bad, the ugly, the series two.

    After needing to replace my series one elite controller, I was able to get in an order for pickup for the series two. And while I haven’t encountered any drift issues, I have a sticky/defunct A button. So now I have one dedicated paddle after doing some remapping of the paddle controls to manipulate the function of the A button. It’s not ideal, however it works in a pinch, took some adjustments on my case, as I had not used the paddles on my series one. Lucked out on the left and right bumper/trigger buttons as they all work without a hitch. I do like how you can adjust the tension in the control sticks a major improvement over the series one, though I do see this eventually leading towards drift issues, especially since I have mine pretty much as loose as possible, FPS and the like, gaming pretty much faster/wider range of motion. To that end I did get geek squad coverage, should a drift issue arise. I can understand why the price may be a no go for some, but if you’ve got a Series S/X, then why not have a controller on the same par (more or less)?

    Def an upgrade from the standard controllers. Battery life is incredible and I love the extra inputs on the back. My original elite controller lasted almost 9 years, hopefully this investment lasts just as long.

    Perfrct for any gaming purposes and you have customize it to your liking as well by swapping/ mapping out your control stick choices and the extra four buttons on the back of the controller as well, and ofc the controller pack i got does come with the controller sticks and buttons accessories so dont worry.
