    This is a super great controller out of the many I have bought. Me and my boyfriend love this controller and the fact that you can match it to your own way that you like to have a controller is the coolest thing ever. I would definitely recommend buying this controller . It is definitely worth the money.

    Having the elite controller helps out with a lot of games by allowing you to keep your thumbs on the joy cons at all times. The only thing I recommend is getting the protection plan since the buttons will wear down pretty fast

    I’ve been using the elite controllers since the beginning of the first elite v1. These controllers are very sturdy, and add a competitive advantage while playing competitive games. Haven’t had any problems with either controllers, and will continue to buy future new and improved controllers from Microsoft.

    Thought I would invest in this product so I didn't have to use so many batteries. Great investment. It is exactly as described. Love the ability to change the buttons. It lasts a long time on a charge, when low, I just plug in the cord or recharge. Wish I hadn't waited so long to buy it.

    Out of the "High end" controllers, this one ranks best for functionality and ease of use. The extra bits for the button re-mapping and trigger stops, along with the joystick tensioner make a difference in game

    Love this controller! Switch from a different brand custom controller that started falling apart after 6 months! As soon as I opened this one I noticed the quality was much better! The ease of setting up your custom button profiles and switching between them is amazing!

    Version two is a step up from the original elite controller. High quality everything down to the rubberized feel. USB c makes this controller something that should last much longer than the original as this was a point of failure in mine.

    As an owner of the black elite 2 controller that had both bumpers fail and rubber grip start peeling after just one year of use, i purchased this in hopes of improvements made. The battery life seems a bit longer but the feel of the product seems a bit cheaper than the black elite 2 controller. If you already have the charging case and paddles, then this is a justifiable purchase, otherwise just spend the extra money on the older black elite 2 and i strongly suggest Purchasing insurance on it.
