    Feels great in your hand and I like that I dont have to worry about battery packs. Bigest issue is that the thumbstick neef to be constantly re-tightened and that the extra buttons underneath can be pressed inadvertently. Still an upgrade from the core controller.

    I've owned it for a little bit now and I haven't had any issues with it, I use this controller a lot on my PC and my Xbox and it's great having a rechargeable controller that I know won't run out of battery.

    This is by far the best controller I've ever used. It's built really well and feels good in my hands. Having the trigger settings and removable buttons as well as 3 on the fly programmed settings takes this controller over the top. The price tag will make you consider not buying but after pulling the trigger I couldn't be happier with my purchase. The 40 hour built in battery and charging dock are another added bonus to this nifty controller. Highly recommend.

    This thing is a game changer. Having the back paddles for traditional button actions makes the controller competitive. You have the ability to never lift your thumbs off the joysticks. Increases reaction times for all mechanics of your gameplay. Solid build. Long battery life. Full access to detailed settings. You’ll find yourself building complex profiles for each game with this controller. Does so much more than just control your game.

    Great controller! The extra paddles underneath, the ability to shorten the triggers pull is a game changer, and most of all being able to set and button to a different one is a real game changer. Only reason its not 5 stars is the reliability. This is my 3rd one, since the LB and RB buttons can break easily. Thats why i gave it a 4 star

    This was my go to controller for a long time. The back paddles are my favorite out of any of the other premium options that include back buttons. The triggers have 3 settings, great for fps games for faster trigger pulls. And the dpad is nice and responsive. My only complaint about the controller is the thumb sticks. While they do have the amazing option to adjust tension which is useful, they also have the worst recentering springs I’ve seen on any controller. There always seems to be a little extra play in the thumbstick and it never really returns to true center on its on. Overall a good controller and a solid option. If they fix the thumbsticks on the next iteration it would truly be the best option out there

    The Best controller ever made for XBOX ONE ,my son and I bought the first XBOX ELITE SERIES when they first came out , we loved it and we were very satisfied with it ! The controller lasted a very long time , they were a little bit pricey but the more we used them i decided they were worth the money . The series 2 are even alot more better and worth EVERY PENNY I SPENT FOR THEM !

    Great controller and it is totally worth it. The battery last what seems like forever. I rarely have to charge and when I do it’s lightening quickly because of usb-c. If you enjoy gaming and not paying for batteries or silly pack then purchase this controller.
