    I was really hyped when this controller was announced @ E3. I couldn’t wait to upgrade from my gen 1 Elite controller. Maybe I should of waited longer... This controller has got to be the most expensive junk I have ever used. If you are a competitive gamer I.e. play PRO AM or above this thing could cost you everything. Don’t be fooled by the 5 star reviews, No disrespect but a lot of the reviews for this are from average to medicore gamers, Impressed by Battery life. Let’s start with the fact that the sticks had terrible drift right out the box. Number 2. If you play competitive chances are you want your button presses to register, NOPE!! It’s literally a 50/50 you get button registry. Number 3 isn’t that big but the internal battery can’t be removed. It’s gotten to the point now, I play with my Gen 1 or my Scuff for reliability. Really hoping they fix this thing the potential was really there. It’s feels really good in your hand and trigger pulls feel nice but, hey at least you can play wireless for 3 days without a charge. *Microsoft Priorities smh.

    This is a really solid controller with a nice case. The XBOX app lets you create three custom button layouts and save them to the controller. I also change the center button LED, so that each custom button layout has its own color.

    Better than the first iteration in many ways but still has its issues. Feels great in hand and the rechargeable battery is a must have past due added touch that the controller badly needed! I had immediate issues with my right bumper though the bumper buttons break very easily and are poorly made. I was really surprised how fast the bumpers gave out and I feel like it will happen again soon

    I tried playing claw practiced for a few months but just never could get the hang of it (call me lazy for giving up) I saw this controller and it became the answer to all my problems and even made more other stuff even better. It comes with multiple joy sticks I use most of them for different games I normally only switch the D pad to mess around but I'm sure someone has a use for it. Not a serious gamer but definitely upped my game to a whole new level love it. Only issue is one of the joy sticks loosen and can spin but I tightened it and haven't had a problem since.
