    As my title says, this controller is very comfortable in my hands. I have bigger hands so that was important to me. The weight is perfect and it pairs right up with Windows 11 without an issue.

    Much better than the 8 year old elite I had. Lighter weight, feels more solid and all the inputs feel more crisp

    This is an excellent controller. I like how customizable the controller is along with I like that you can change the color of the button. I also appreciate that it’s wireless and the overall feel of the controller. Overall, excellent purchase and addition to my Series X.

    Great controller! Has a wonderful grip feel and very long battery life. I had the paddles left over from a broken series one elite controller so they moved right over. But the thumb sticks don’t transfer so keep that in mind.

    On The Button

    This works perfectly. I upgraded to this because of the buttons on bottom. The only problem I have is... the buttons on bottom. They work so well that I keep them turned off so they don't get input from my handling the controller. It's good to know that they are there, should I decide to use them.

    Stick drift, buttons breaking from simple use (triggers and peices rattling) all the common issues from a classic xbox controller but in a more expensive package. Go buy a scuff controller with Hall Effect joysticks and mechanical buttons instead.

    This is the best controller I’ve ever used! I own the first edition of this controller also, but this one is much better. Feels better ergonomically, I love the rubber grips that wrap around the handles. The triggers also have a texture to them which is nice. My favorite feature is the internal rechargeable battery - lasts 40 hours on one charge...phenomenal! It’s certainly spendy, but worth it in my opinion. It will also work with next gen consoles

    This controller is one of the best I have ever used. i mainly use it for pc gaming when i dont want to use my mouse and keyboard and it does the trick for me. And it is not as expensive as the black elite 2.

    This is the best remote I’ve ever owned. No stick drift and smooth as butter! Plus the worker made me aware w my protection package this remote would also be covered for any issues and if it couldn’t be fixed theyd simply give me a new ine

    This is a great controller. Internal battery is nice. A single charge lasts a long time, the responsiveness is outstanding. I love the hair trigger option and the 3 different paddle setups for different play styles. Its so versatile and easy to switch between console, to pc, and even to my phone during trips. Comes with extra parts too. Definitely a good purchase

    The new Gen 2 Elite controller is much better constructed over the original Gen 1 Elite especially with the grips and new metal bumper frame but, with my new Elite out of box, the right and left stick feel slightly loose and the right stick is already suffering from a downwards stick drift and it hasn't even been broken in yet. Good controller regardless but, check the controller to be sure of any potential out of box issues.

    Best Controller ever made for xbox! A little pricey, but worth it, you no longer need actual batteries, and you can replace literally any gesture from any button for the paddles! Works excellent with Warzone. I used to mess up all my controllers from double pressing the joy stick to sprint, now with this controller, I don't have to use the joy stick button, and replaced it using the paddle! So much smoother and improves your gameplay !
