    This is the best controller I have ever used. It feels great in the hand. The life battery is amazing. The interchangeable parts make this controller very customizable to your liking. Just to note, I have not had any drifting or button pressing issues. I may have lucked out but beware that those are things people have complained about.

    Solid FPS wireless controller

    The customization is really nice with the additional 4 back buttons. Thumb stick selection is nice, but a tall stick with a fat head would be better for FPS games for accuracy. Build quality seems sold, and weight feels premium. Wish it came with a wireless dongle. Picked up one up which adds to the total cost, and have only connection 1 drop so far. The D pad sucks. It is not responsive for fast paced games that use this like 2D platformers. I switch to a PS4 controller to play them. I use this for COD Warzone & picked up the warranty as reviews of it failing seem a little too frequent, and COD is harsh on controllers. I prefer the shspe & size of the PS4 & PS5 controllers a lot more, but the lack the buttons on the back. Removing those from the back is easy if you only need 2, or have larger hands and bump the wrong ones too much. It's definitely a med to large hands controller. Software works, and set up is easy

    The Xbox Elite Series 2 is a high quality controller with lots of customization for settings weather your on Xbox or PC. I’ve used other pro controllers but I like the feel and durability more with the Xbox Elite Series 2!

    3rd elite controller. This is my 2nd core. After about 18 mos, all xbox controllers experience stick drift if used regularly. This one is no different. The adjustments these allow help diminish the effect over time. Love them and won't use anything else.

    Elite Series 2 is good but could be more durable

    Microsoft makes a good produce with this as the additional buttons on the back (the paddles) allows you more range of activities within games. the weight and the feel of this is very good. the only reason why I don't give this 5 stars is because as with the Elite Series 1, the Elite Series 2 ends up malfunctioning after heavy usage. I do not slam or throw my controller so I know it isn't from mishandling. with my current Elite Series 2, I've been using the Left and Right Bumpers a lot (with NFS Unbound) and the Right Bumper is not less responsive than it initially was. If Microsoft starts using more durable materials then it will be an easy 5 star rating.

    I suffer from essential tremors, which means that 'normal' controllers cannot stand up to the involuntary twitches that make up my daily life. This controller was bought to replace the generation 1 equivalent, that developed drift, and so far has made me a happy customer. No need for replacement batteries, as the rechargeable battery is built into the controller!

    A great controller. As a casual gamer I’m not a fan of the faceted (round) d-pad not having any tactile markers or bumps, so I had to buy an aftermarket “+” shaped d-pad accessory. If you also get the back paddles for this controller they are placed well but require some playtime to get used to, especially if you are accustomed to squeezing the grips.

    Definitely worth it, has a little more weight to it , sleek look. Love the protective case it comes with to charge inside, the gripped skin on it is great if you’re hands get sweaty. Paddle boards on back are awesome so you don’t have to take your fingers off toggle sticks... 100% worth the buy if you want the best playing experience

    Overall this controller is as it is marketed “elite”. The controller feels premium. Holding it side by side with a standard xbox controller this one feels way better. Totally would recommend.

    I was skeptical about spending 150 bucks for a controller. After a few weeks, I don’t think I could go back. The ability to customize all the buttons, the addition of the four paddles, the feel, and long battery life makes this a worthy purchase. Took a few days to get used to the extra buttons, but well worth it. Highly recommended!!

    Due to all the negative feedbacks on the series 1, I didn’t buy the 1st one. This time I took my chance hoping that the 2nd is much improved. It is an awesome controller. MS addressed many issues reported from the 1st one. I am loving it so far! The only downside is the price. Yes, it’s not cheap and with this money, you can buy a new console with little bit of extra.
