    Great controller, lots of customization available for mapping and trigger sensitivity. Has a built in rechargeable battery that seems to last forever. I can start gaming in the morning and 12 hours later it still says it’s at full. I also like that you can charge it in the case with either the usbc cable or the magnetic dock. Only time will tell how long the battery will last as it ages but so far it’s the best controller I have ever owned.

    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!!!

    This is my third elite controller. I had one for my pc and xbox but i love it so much that i bought a second rather than going back and forth. Then I bought one for my son because he kept taking mine. These controllers are solid and well crafted.

    2 months in and I'm happy with the series 2! The smaller paddles make a big difference when your using the 4 paddles. The big seller on this model is the full grip and does it help when your playing a hot session on a FPS. So far not button or paddle problems and everything charges according. Charges last about 2x long that the previous controllers. Overall a better buy. My only grind is the previous elite controller felt heavier but that's a personal grind.

    These remotes are amazing . I like that , they have a little weight to them and you can change out the toggle switches to pads or flat plates . Great job on these.

    This is the controller whether you are a casual gamer or a serious gamer this is the controller to purchase. Perfect weight interchangeable sticks and pads wire triggers with hi end metals! Includes charging port and a hi quality feel also no lag! Comparable with PC and Xbox one and Series X or S. Buy it you will not regret the purchase, it from Best Buy get points and buy the insurance plan for peace of mind.

    I was hesitant to purchase this controller based off the reviews, but I’m glad I gave it a chance. I honestly cannot find a single flaw on this controller. I’m not sure how Microsoft or anyone else could top this. The price is absolutely worth it in my opinion.

    These controllers are awesome but the build quality is terrible. After a few months the grips are coming off again. Ive had a few of these and the same problem still remains.

    Really like this controller. Comes with different stick options. Really like optional taller stick (wish it came with two instead of one). Also has the ability to adjust the tension on the sticks with the included tool USB C connection. Includes nice case and charging dock. Battery is built into the controller so not replaceable. Battery life is excellent!

    It’s one of the best controllers I’ve ever owned but it only lasted just under two months. I’ve already ordered a new one but the drawback is that I had to spend 60$ to get a new warranty. Most of the the time my Best Buy doesn’t seem to carry these In store so you have to wait for shipping. Overall I don’t see myself ever using a different controller. But if I have to spend 60$ every two months I may have to look at other options l.

    I honestly recommend it only if you already bought the other elite series controller that has every accessory already included buying it by itself would be a waste but for me already having all the other accessories this was a really good purchase

    Overall this controller has been amazing. It has super high quality parts and is a step above the standard controller. I did have an issue with mine within 6 months but was able to send it into Microsoft for the warrently and gets replacement device easily. Overall very happy with my controller and will be buying another if I ever need to get a new controller.

    Overall great high end controller, just be sure to be up to date on the warranty so you can send it in to have the wear and tear fixed. Stick starts to drift after a couple months of heave use which is expected, paddles start to stick, just make sure you send it before the warranty ends.

    I bought this to replace my Razer Wolverine Ultimate Controller. I had no issues with the Razer controller, but it just wasn't for me. I am amazed with the amount of fine-tuning you can do with this controller. Above and beyond anything the Razer controller could do. The analogue tensioner is a very nice addition. It is probably my favorite feature along with the controller charge dock. If you are looking for a high-end controller, look no further.

    Only reason this controller doesn’t get a five star review is that it tends to develop stick drift or faulty bumpers. It’s worth it to get the protection plan to be able to replace it.
