    My overall favorite controller. The weight, the paddles and feel of the grips make this, for me, the overall best console controller to use.

    Most Comfortable Controller You’ll Find

    Most comfortable and customizable controller I have ever used. I bought this on sale for $130, and don’t feel that I overspent for what it is. I probably would not purchase at full price, as there are better options in that price point. I’m using on a PC, and it takes a bit of customization to get it right. But there is absolutely no lag when paired via Bluetooth.

    BEST CONTROLLER

    Great solid controller. Has perfect weight comes with charging case that you can charge controller IN!!!! Over all worth every penny if you play Xbox or pc at all. I have used a lot of controllers in my life and this by far exceeds the rest. Also, has extra paddles for the back and extra buttons in the case. Buttons are metal not plastic so it makes a huge difference when playing and they remove effortless by magnets.

    The only thing stopping me giving this a 5/5 is Microsofts poor QC on these controllers. The bumpers or buttons will end up always going out on you. Other than that they're excellent controllers

    Excellent controller. Had the original and decided to upgrade to the second version, no disappointment at all. Quality feels better and the sticks are durable. Customizing the controller paddles/buttons is ready to do from the app in your Xbox console

    Lots of customization options available and more comfortable than the standard Xbox controller. I think mostly competitive players can appreciate its features but still worth while if you know what you dislike about the standard controller. Biggest issue is you can't easily swap the battery, which is disappointing considering the cost of this product.

    Solid and great customizations. It lets you adjust so many pieces and especially for racing games and throttle control.

    By far the best controller that I’ve bought. I’ve had the normal PS4&5, Xbox one, Astro C40, Scuff, and even nycon controller. This blows them out of the water with the customizability and quality. I’ve seen reviews saying there’s stick drift after a while (I’ve had it for about a month so I cant speak on that) but I highly HIGHLY suggest this controller to anyone who’s serious about gaming.

    I have been using the Elite series of controllers since gen 1, it is nice to finally have a cheaper purchasing option than the $180 original gen 2 with the case and charging base.

    The Elite Series 2 is a souped up controller with additional small paddle buttons that can be configured for any action. The controller is definitely expensive. The main reason I got it is for the quick trigger buttons. You can flick a switch so that you barely have to press the trigger button before the fire action occurs. It gives me an added edge in Call of Duty to get the drop on opponents!

    Its such a nice high quality controller. The only thing I dont like is the Dpad. Not ideal at all for fighting games. But very customizable and great for casual games otherwise.

    Great controller if you have some extra money lying around to splurge. Personally, it was a bit much for the cost, and I find it better to just grab a strike pack for the paddles and use an original Xbox one controller instead of the new one (afaik they don’t make them for the new controller right now). TLDR: get it if money isn’t an issue and you want more than two paddles, otherwise buy strike pack

    I have a mix feel for this, seems like it’s beyond my Xbox one x, I’ve notice a little lag with input from time to time, but when it’s plug it, it’s perfect. There’s a lot you can do to tune it over the first series. Maybe there’s a update in the future for the lag issue or perhaps the X Series will be able to keep up. Of course if had a choice I would have brought another series 1.

    Luxury, Not Value

    Not a great value proposition for the casual gamer but if you're into it you'll ignore logic and buy this. The paddles on the underside take some getting used to and may actually be an annoyance to those used to the regular style controller. Good build quality. D-pad is an upgrade. Does the cool outweigh the price? Your call!
