    Very nice upgrade to the standard controller. I like how grippy it is and the paddles are nice to use. The only thing I miss is not having a share button on this controller. Maybe the series 3 will have it.

    I like all the customizations that can be done. I like that it's a little heavy so I can't accidentally throw it in the air.

    Thought I know that eventually this controller will develop stick drift, there isn't a better alternative. This is hands down the BEST controller for pc and Xbox. You will not find a better one.

    Best Xbox controller for the S system. It's a little pricey but definitely worth it. I have dropped it many times and not a scratch or dent on it. Got grips and extra buttons to customize. Definitely getting one for each of my kids

    This controller functionally is great! However; this is my third iteration as the left and right bumpers wear out over time and even though they click, the input is not detected by the game. I primarily play Rocket League and use those bumpers frequently.

    The price is up and quality is down on these elite remotes. As i was not paying attention when i was doing a warranty exchange and was only given credit for a core elite so im out the 70$ difference. My mistake i guess

    Game changer!

    This controller has been a literal game changer. I’m only disappointed I didn’t buy one sooner. You really notice how much better it is once you get it all set up and then switch back to the standard controller. My KD is way up since I changed to this controller. With FPS games thousandths of a second can be all the difference. This makes you faster and more precise and with the paddles you no longer have to take. Your fingers off other controls giving you the advantage.

    Great controller if you have the money to waste on it or you are truly a gamer and will benefit from the slight difference in the mods it is capable of performing.

    It is an elite 2 without all the extras. Great for replacing broken elite 2. Im not a big warranty person but i highly recommend getting the warranty. Saves you about $70 (if you buy the warranty again after turning in broken controller) and saves you the headache and stress of getting a new controller. If you start getting stick drift, button stop working, controller stops charging, battery stops holding a charge, etc, take it to bestbuy, redeem the warranty, they give you the new controller, buy the warranty on it for $50, and you are back to gaming. (Warranty is 2 years, its a new controller)

    I’ve had this controller for over a year now almost 2 years and use it almost every day on my computer, not once have I experienced issues with drift or buttons failing, the quality is really nice feels very solid and the interchangeable buttons to swap is a nice feature and I love the triggers adjustments you can do

    Great for shooting games like call of duty. I just don't like that it starts to have issues within a year. Button will start to stick or could get stick drift. I would recommend to purchase additional insurance.
