    Nothing feels better than this. Solid build and reliable, long lasting buttons. Overall can't go wrong, unless your prefer a PS controller.

    Every button has an authoritative, reassuring press, but lowering to 4 stars because it's not quite as durable as you'd think. The vibration motors have begun rattling the chassis juuuust enough to where it's noticeable, and the rubber, textured grip has come loose up near the shoulder buttons. While in a different league entirely to the base controller, the Elite 2 is truly great... for ~8 months. Low-great, high-good thereafter.

    It's an amazing controller, but it is expensive.

    I game primarily on my pc, but I also primarily use a controller. I know, blasphemous. But for me using a controller is the most comfortable gaming experience. This is the king of controllers. Peak controller. No comparison. It's plug in (or wirelessly connect) and play. 99% of games support it. There really hasn't been a single flaw that I've run into. It feels fantastic and the build quality is something you'd expect a $180 controller to have. Obviously if you have $180 to spend on a controller, there really isn't too much competition, and rightfully so, as this thing has reached peak controller. I recommend it, but really only if you want the best of what controllers have to offer, and can afford it.

    The price is decent with this controller but when you look at other competitor controllers with paddles like Scuf which go for (200+) the price is fair. Its a huge improvement from the first elite controller. Better thumb stick options now with higher tension and Xbox 360 size thumb sticks. Battery life on this controller is amazing I can play for days without charging. Paddles on the back take more force to engage which feels a lot better while using. Only downside and this is nitpicking is that the tension needs to be a little higher on the 3rd setting to replicate the perfect 360 controller. Also the 360 thumb sticks don't have enough grip. But I highly recommend also buy the 2 year warranty. So that if you receive wear and tear or any other issues you can replace it.

    I enjoy the option to set color schematics and sensitivity levels. I use Control Freaks on joysticks and they work perfectly.

    Theres alot of negative stigma around this controller. But out of the box, absolutely no issues. Its the Cadillac of controllers. Its feels great, the sticks snap right back to the middle and best of all no stick drift. I definitely recommend the geek squad coverage because if something does go wrong in the next two tears, they can replace it with a new one. No regrats. And use the case to keep it clean, that the biggest maker of stick drift.

    Confusing name - not the "premium" version.

    This one was a bit of a letdown. I upgraded from the original Elite controller because that one requires a USB dongle to connect to my machine and was hoping for the same experience. This one feels cheaper, has some weird issues with connectivity, and overall disappoints in the aesthetics department. Otherwise, it's a decent controller and I'd recommend these over third-party brands any day.

    A little on the pricey side, especially for how old this model is, but on sale it is definitely still one of the best Xbox/PC controllers you can get. Lots of customization options, and the included charging stand is a nice added bonus. I've tried other controllers, but this one is hands down my favorite.
