    I love these controllers, this is my 4th one. The controller has some weight to it, it doesnt feel like a cheap piece of plastic. I play a lot of FPS games and I wear the remotes out after about a year and a half of gaming. They probably should last longer but i enjoy using them and i think for the amount of wear i put on them, its worth the money every 12-16 months. Its also nice to pick up just the remote when i dont need all the extras.

    Absolutely loved everything about this controller. Weight feels great in hands, super comfortable, and customizable buttons/sticks to suit your preferences. I owned this controller for 2 months, when suddenly the sticks started drifting. I didn’t drop it, I keep good care of it, but this still happened. I should have done my research. 2 months for almost $200 just doesn’t cut it. Stick to the cheap ones, at least you expect them to be junk.

    Best Controller

    This controller is by far the best one. I have a Series 1 and I like it but, the grip portion will come off. But so far I have been using and making the Joy Stick adjustment and it is awesome and you feel and see the difference on the accuracy of the movement. I like the fact that I can charge it and use it for 40 hrs, I haven’t tested it the 40 hrs, but I like being connected when I play FPS.The back paddles feel better at their current location, better than the series 1. Let see after time how this controller operates.

    I love this controller & i love the warranty that best buy offers for it. I only give 4 stars because of little things ive noticed. They do eventually get stick drift but again warranty, & then theres the issue ive had with 3 in a row of the rubber grip starts to peel up after a little while. Another personal gripe is i have big hands & it wouod be nice if the spacing for the paddles was better. It is very difficult to use all 4 with larger hands. Atleast in my experience.

    This is literally the best line of controllers.. The weight, the feel, the functionality.. AMAZING!! I love the elite series on what they should deliver. 2 Star rating is because i have 3 Elite series 1 controllers that all have common issues. (Drift, bumper, peeling grip) I had read a lot of these things were addresses with the Series 2.. Nope.. Still a hot steamy pile of crap.. Purchased in October and this has the worst case of drift I've ever had.. The right bumper is super sensitive, one push and it thinks it's two. The grip hasnt peeled so i guess theres a pro.. Also have the Geek Squad Protection but they have been out of stock now for like 5 months so im stuck using this or one of my normal controllers..

    This was a gift purchase for my son, he is pretty anti-xbox controller but I convinced him it is more comfortable than being tethered to the PC with his PS5 controller. He enjoys it and no stick drift as of yet.

    Great controller!! but for the price... this controller feels expensive. Great quality materials and funtionality. I love the interchangable thumb sticks that are magnetic. Great response feel. The thumbstick tightness adjustments are great for those percision shots in fps or 3rd person. The buttons and triggers work and feel great. The adjustable triggers are a great component fpr different genre of games. The charger design is amazing with the in case or oit of case ability to plug in. The D pads are great. Im not a fan of the circular D-pad but i changed it out for the cross and it works great. Im glad all these components came in the purchase. Bluetooth works great on PC, android, xbox, but you need a 3rd party connection for ps4. Could not get to work with ps5. The only downside i have with it is it does not have gyroscope capabilities. A niche complaint for those obscure games. All around one of the best controllers I've ever owned.

    Definitely a step up from series 1

    This is a great improvement from the original elite controller. The grip is extended from just the backing to the front, back, and triggers. The multi-stage trigger locks were surprisingly more helpful. The controller also has more software settings and setting “slots”. Two biggest improvements to me are the new paddles which are a bit smaller making it less cumbersome to use all four and of course the integrated rechargeable battery pack takes the cake. Definitely a top shelf controller!

    Great choice of you want extra paddles for playing games, would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for stick drift within a few months depending on what you play and how often I'm sure. Fix that and it would be 5 stars for sure!

    Great controller, but insurance is necessary.

    The quality of the gamepad is unbeatable. So unbeatable that I’ve opted to replace 3 different ones now (buying the insurance each time) because the button receivers on these eventually go bad. My first one lasted me around 8 months before the RB receiver went bad and started failing intermittently. Second one lasted me about 8 months before a faulty LB receiver went bad and it had to be replaced. My third one lasted around 6 months before the left stick button’s receiver went bad and had to be replaced. Overall - awesome controller and I refuse to use any other game pad… just make sure you buy the insurance. Hopefully a series 3 will bring receivers that last the long haul a bit better.
