    Bought this for my son for Christmas. It was his favorite gift. He loves the long charge cord it comes with, too.

    The elite controller is the best controller I ever had with the paddles to add to it make it even more elite.

    My son had been asking for this controller for a while and though I don't quite understand all the different things it does he was thrilled when he opened this up on Christmas. It was his favorite present and he has been enjoying it since.

    I purchased this item as a replacement for the Elite Series 2 Controller that suffered from sever stick drift. Since I was past the warranty period I figured why not? Great feel and weight. Definitely worth the purchase. I was able to use the paddles and charging case from the Original Elite Series 2 controller.

    Efficient, accurate and comfortable to hold. I like the triggers on the underside of the remote for quicker response.

    I bought this for my son after going thround 5 other microsoft controllers. Ive had the elite 2 for a couple of years now with no drift and since I had already paid the elite price with replacing his… this made more sense. The color combination was a nice addition— now my daughter wants one in pink

    I’ve used a lot of different controllers. The elite 1 was great, but the elite 2 is definitely better. The different analog sticks are very convenient and comfortable. Grips nice on the controller. The in game settings that you can adjust are phenomenal and helped tremendously in games.

    Outstanding open box buy, it was everything I hoped it would be. It elevated my game to levels I haven’t seen since I emulated Dirk the Daring and saved Princess Daphne from the evil dragon Singe.

    One thing to consider....

    One thing to consider about this product is that the thumb sticks will wear out over time after each use, resulting in a common issue in controllers called "stick drift" which is currently inevitable. Microsoft has yet to manufacture perfect thumb sticks that will not cause this issue. Other than that, everything else about this controller is perfect.

    Would recommend for competitive gamers, for casuals who are just looking for a controller I’ll say this is expensive for your needs. Crazy helpful in certain games where you don’t want to constantly take your thumb off the analog stick. Great customization options like response curves, trigger and analog deadzones, trigger locks, analog tension and you can set custom profiles for specific games.

    I have had the xbox elite series 1 before and was disappointed with how much it broke, but this series 2 is a beast. Im a clumsy person so i tend to drop my controller at least once a day. Ive had this controller for over 2 years now and havent had any major issues.

    I’ve had these controllers a lot over the years. I love the textured thumb sticks and textured grips around the controller. One of the best controller on the market for Microsoft. Highly recommend this controller
