    Great controller to have, comes in handy. However it tends to wear fairly easily. The buttons/connections wear out and can’t be used after some time, forcing you to use the built in paddles. Then the paddles wear out and you can’t use them. If you buy this controller I HIGHLY recommend getting the protection plan for it.

    In my opinion, it is the best controller out in the market. I’ve had both the dual shock and a custom scuf controller and I still love the series 2 controller. Their magnetic paddles and removable parts are great designs.

    I had the first elite controller and this is a far superior product. The textures, plastics and finishes are just better. The buttons are clickier. The additional tension features on the sticks are amazing. Just buy it with a warranty.

    It’s a GREAT controller...for as long as it works. Over time you WILL experience stick drift on either or both sticks. You also may experience your bumper buttons double activating when pressed once. It’s random, but when it happens (like switching weapons in fortnite) it’s frustrating. I think I have my shotgun out and I start healing in front of the enemy. Every since elite 1 and 2 controller I’ve had has had problems. Could take weeks, could take months, but it happens. Thank god for geek squad. They have had my back every time. <3

    Solid controller. Pros: - rechargeable long lasting battery - paddle sticks - exchangeable sticks Cons: - weight - can tend to cause some hand strain given location of paddles ( for me at least)

    Packaging was good. Product came as described, good quality. Only issue was with delivery through FedEx. It was delivered to a different address, luckily the person walked it over to my house who accidentally received it.
