    I didn’t think the controller was worth it. I decided to buy it with a coupon I found. After using it for a few hours and getting use to the extra controls I am not able to go back to a standard controller. This controller has helped me tremendously. I recommend this to anyone trying to get a slight advantage in game. Also no more batterys!!!

    Love gaming with this. Stick drift is the only con. I usually get it right out of the box and it gets worse as time goes on. Get the warranty and you can replace it. Im on my 4th one

    I love the Elite Series 2 controller, but the QC issues are definitely a cause for concern. I've had to RMA multiple times (stick drift, unresponsive back buttons, double clicking bumpers), but I can't go back to the regular controller.

    The controller feels great and well built. The ease of swapping out the joysticks or removing paddles is amazing. But with all that being said i do not believe this controller is worth its hefty price tag. You can buy 4 or 5 regular controllers for the price of this, or even a console. Way too expensive so in the end decided to return it.

    I was hesitant to purchase this controller based off the reviews, but I’m glad I gave it a chance. I honestly cannot find a single flaw on this controller. I’m not sure how Microsoft or anyone else could top this. The price is absolutely worth it in my opinion.

    I'm wearing this review of somebody that has disabilities in their hand, and I have to say this is one of the most comfortable and versatile controllers I own. They have become a daily driver not only in the game on the Xbox but also on my gaming PC.

    Great controller. Make sure to get the 2 yr warranty with Best Buy though they’re notorious for wearing out but Best Buy’s policy is great cause you can renew your warranty with the replacements. I bought one when they first released and have probably been through 5 of them now because of how good their replacement policy is

    I tried other controllers including Scuff and I believe so far these controllers are better. They seen durable able to tweek the resistance some on each stick which is a plus. Connectivity to PC seem to be alot better than Scuff as well. I recommend these.

    My go to controller. High quality, triggers are adjustable (although i didn't really change them often.) Also the extra buttons on the back are nice, but haven't really needed to use them. Still love the case, the charging, and the feel of it. Expensive, but worth it

    Overall great high end controller, just be sure to be up to date on the warranty so you can send it in to have the wear and tear fixed. Stick starts to drift after a couple months of heave use which is expected, paddles start to stick, just make sure you send it before the warranty ends.

    This is the core model so it does not include the paddles on the back, they will need to be bought seperately. But for what i got it for, it works great and ill pick up the paddles another day.

    Best controller out there. Great weight, and good quality feel. Only complaint, that some will consider a positive, is the built in rechargeable battery. I prefer Eneloop standard batteries rather than non-user replaceable battery that certainly will degrade. The prices on this has fallen so it is much more reasonable price than the original MSRP.
