    This is my 3rd Elite series 2 controller. The first two had issues with the bumpers (one right after the one year warranty, the second one almost at 6months). The controller itself offers great utility but for whatever reason the bumpers fail to stand the test of time.

    This should have been a day 1 purchase, even before any games had been installed on the Xbox series x. It feels infinitely better than the lame controller that comes packaged with the console.

    Completely love the feel of this controller. Easy to hold. Very heavy compared to others. Works great for cross platform with the eight bit duo. If you have a program properly to be recognized as the different series, Xbox controller works well for Sniper games.

    I've really been enjoying this controller. The rechargeable battery was something I'm glad this came with. I like the old 360 thumb sticks which this comes with an assortment of different ones. The D-pad pictured in the advertisement is nice for fighting games but you can switch that out too. The only real issue I've had is with the paddles on the bottom. You'll need to train your muscle memory to accept them. Overall, they are the better way to play. Do yourself a favor and disable the x y a b buttons in the menus on the XBox/PC. The controller is heavy compared to the standard ones. It's solid and the grip is awesome. You'll need to relinquish that death grip most people play with in order to get accustomed to the paddles. Another thing is that the paddles are great for reassigning buttons like the Thumbstick - To - Run assignment most Call of Duty games have. Sea of Thieves does this. Again it's relearning how to walk, run, and jump. When you finally get it, your K/D ratio will increase dramatically, ie you are no longer taking your thumbs off the movement sticks to hit buttons. Some of the more advanced features are not explained like cording several buttons together for special commands.

    Great controller for small hands

    Works like a charm. Tested with Windows PC, SteamDeck, and NVIDIA shield. Flawless connection. If you want to enable the levers you will have to buy the additional set for the paddles. This is only the controller itself. Works well with small hands, I am somewhat doubtful if this is very comfortable with large hands.

    Pros - it is a great feeling controller with a lot of options. It takes a little getting use to the paddles underneath, but once you do you will not want to go back. Cons - it seems to not be as quick to respond as it states. I play a lot of CoD and it seems to have a slightly slower response time than a $180 controller should have. Overall - I like it. I wish it were a bit less expensive, but it is a nice controller.
