    From my grandson - I love the elite series 2 controller! The case it comes with works really well and is very high quality and protective. It's very convenient that I can charge it in the case. The charger is very long to and can be used while playing. The buttons and customizations are very cool too. It adds a different feel to gaming when using the extra buttons and customizations. 10 out of 10 controller!

    I will say I actually got my money's worth. Buying this elite controller has stopped me from buying a new xbox controller every 3 to 4 months. It is kinda sad that a basic xbox controller comes with so many faults that it starts to drift after a while. If you want reliability and durability, save some money and get this one.

    Best Xbox Controller. These are made sturdy compared to the plastic ones that come with the Xbox. The customizations with the back panels and you can even change the color of the center X.

    Incredible controller. This has elevated my gaming experience ten fold. Absolutely no issues which was a concern for me due to the previous model being somewhat underwhelming for the price point. However I can confidently say as an avid gamer (4-8 hour sessions daily) I have ran into no problems at all and will continue using this product.

    This controller has withstood my wrath thus far, only downside is if your motherboard is a certain age the USB Bluetooth adapter for Xbox controllers becomes necessary. Otherwise, if you're playing wired then you're good to go

    Nice controller. A little pricey for a controller that lasts on average a year for me and my family. Not that it is bad, just for me paying that much every year kind of sucks.

    My husband plays video games a lot so the remote gets used and abused. The remote usually last him about 8 months until it starts to have issues. So GET the warranty. For some reason he loves this remote and will only buy this remote. I don’t play video games so I’m not sure how durable remotes are suppose to be, but he’s gone through a few of them. The warranty isn’t cheap but it’s cheaper than having to buy a new remote every so often.

    Great controller feels much better than the old elite controller and you can charge it inside the case. Its a bit pricey though you do get a slight edge on people with regular controllers. 4 stars only because I feel like its over priced. Watch out for analog drift heard it happens with these controllers.

    Great upgrade to the basic controller, all the parts are easy to change and swap out. Puls the case can store the extra parts and charges the controller, no more having to plug it in just place it in and its spot and it starts to charge
