    Our nephew loved his birthday gift! Not to mention, the young man that helped me at the Merrillville location was so friendly and helpful!

    i really enjoy this controller because of the extra buttons and the ability to change out parts. but what i dont like or understand is why they would sell this without the dongle to be able to use it bluetooth on your pc? so if you purchase this for your pc make sure you purchase the xbox dongle as well or you have to use it plugged in and not wireless.

      Hey there,

      We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox wireless controller for the most part. The great news is that the Elite 2 has built-in Bluetooth support so you can sync it with any Windows 10 PC that supports Bluetooth without the need for an additional adapter. For more information on how to connect via Bluetooth, go here: https://support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/accessories/connect-and-troubleshoot-xbox-one-bluetooth-issues

      Hope that helps,

    Love being able to customize and controls work well. Do not like that you have to buy additional package for paddles and customization. Returned one because of stick drift. This one has minor stick drift already. Works well with my Xbox Series X.

    I love this elite controller. It has some weight to it but feels great to hold onto. This is my third one, because once you get one, you will never go back to the other.

    Don’t expect this controller to make you the best player but it does give you the tools to get better. The build quality is what really sets this apart from the regular controller. Plenty of customizations options, battery life/charging stand eliminates the struggles of finding a battery pack with a charge, the controller looks great. Overall great upgrade

    definitely worth it. this remote is so customizable. from the joysticks to the d pad and even the triggers. not to mention the different profiles that you can mess with on the xbox to assign the buttons to whatever you want, plus xbox has already announced that it will be compatible with the next gen console, so you're all good there too. Must have!!!

    I think this control made back paddles mainstream and for that it has its place in history. But now there are better more reliable options on the market. If you don't need the back paddles the regular Xbox controller actually has lower (better) input latency than this controller. 7ms vs 14ms, defiantly makes a difference when playing anything online competitively. I would only buy this control for its comfort in hand factor and for playing single player games now days. Also lots and lots of QC issue with button actuation.

    My right joystick started to drift after about a month of use :( The weight, paddles, attachments, and accessories are all well made and felt great to hold however!

    I really like this controller. It feels very premium, and it has helped me with my gameplay due to the paddles. They were a little tough to get used to at first since you have to grip the controller slightly less firm, but once you get used to it, it feels very natural. The thumbsticks are also very smooth and precise.
