    Would have been a keeper if not for the itchy palm

    I really wanted to like this controller, it felt very solidly well made, except for just one annoying thing: the rubber or latex or whatever material the black side grips are made of made my palms very itchy. Im not sure why. If it did not do that, i probably would have happily kept using this controller. Heres hoping microsoft uses a different, non itchy material for their future elite series 3 controller, if and when they release it.

    These controllers are great, until their not. I've owned several over the last few years and they typically stay good for around 8-12 months, at that point you will most likely get stick drift and/or one of the top buttons wears out. Overall its a good controller, but they arent built to last.

    My ten year old grandson is very hard on products and this one is holding up very well. Excellent product that I would purchase in the future and for my other grandchildren.

    Upgraded to this controller but I recommend buying the warranty, I play daily so the buttons damage a little before the 2 year warranty expires! Best purchase ever. I was running through cheap controllers every 3 months at 60 dollars a piece

    Way better than the original. Textured handles feel great, it looks like is a solid piece unlike the original that started to lose the glue after a few months of usage then the rubber around the handle would bubble up and come off the controller. The triggers have 3 levels of resistance. The control sticks can be adjusted too... Very useful. The battery lasts a while even after long periods of gameplay on Elder Scrolls Online. It's worth the money. But if your original is in perfect working conditions then save the money and keep using that one.

    Great controller; it feels sturdy in my hands and has the right amount of weight. The fact that it is customizable is a definite plus. It's worth the price.

    Great controller for the money very easy to use use.The only thing I didn't like was.The analog sticks and the directional pad have pieces that don't snap real tight and they fall off easily but if you pay attention to that it's a great controller

    This is by far the best looking and most simplistic controller to use. The hair triggers are a phenomenal design to enhanced your gaming experience. All the customization with the paddles, thumb-sticks, etc is a plus.

    This XBOX Elite series 2 core controller pairs well with PCs. I tried using my PS controller and it gave me a hard time. I would definitely buy another one.

    I am a Scuf user. Got gen1 Elite controller 2 or 3 years ago and hated the paddles. Went back to Scuf. Wanted a new Scuff, but they were out of stock for Xbox. Decided to go with Gen2 Elite and was impressed. Paddles weren't as sensitive as the Gen1s. That's was my main gripe, love the improvements from the 1st elites. If they change the paddles to be on the back like the Scufs I would stay with the elite controllers. But will be buying a new Scuf soon, but the elite will definitely stay as back up.
