    This controller is absolutely one of the best ithat I have used. The controller is totally cusomizable for any game. The weight of the controller along with the size is almost perfect for all users. I would rcommend this controller to any seriuos gamer.

    Version two is a step up from the original elite controller. High quality everything down to the rubberized feel. USB c makes this controller something that should last much longer than the original as this was a point of failure in mine.

    I’ve bought the elite controllers for a while now and I love them. They feel great in my hand and is pretty simple to set up the paddle to whatever input I want.

    As an owner of the black elite 2 controller that had both bumpers fail and rubber grip start peeling after just one year of use, i purchased this in hopes of improvements made. The battery life seems a bit longer but the feel of the product seems a bit cheaper than the black elite 2 controller. If you already have the charging case and paddles, then this is a justifiable purchase, otherwise just spend the extra money on the older black elite 2 and i strongly suggest Purchasing insurance on it.

    My son says it's the best Xbox controller he's ever used. It seems a little heavier but the button options are great and it's nice that the case can be used as a charging dock.

    I have had both the series 1 and series 2. The series 2 is in my opinion much better. I also have the PS5 dual sense edge which is their version of the same type of controller and this one is much more consistent and I have never had issues with it. I just bought a new replacement after the one I bought when they first came out finally stopped working. Would recommend if you like the xbox controller design.

    The best controller I’ve ever had! I love the adjustable trigger, perfect for fps or more laid back trigger use. I don’t use paddles much but after taking sometime to adjust they definitely come in handy

    I'm blown away by this controller. First time user of an elite controller and I'm not disappointed. All buttons work well and smoothly. I love the trigger adjustments. Although I'm a bit confused when it comes to the paddles and how to set them. Its definitely worth buying.

    Great controller, a little heavy but that's what you get when you have all the abilities this controller provides and it also has a built in rechargeable battery. Defiantly the best Elite Controller that Xbox has made. Makes other controllers feel cheap.
