    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

    A lot of problems with the elite 2. Bumpers go out and notorious for stick drift right out of the box but even with all that it’s still better than most others.

    Best Controller I Have Ever Used

    This is the best controller I have ever played with! The buttons are very responsive, the ability to change sensitivity on that trigger buttons is amazing, and the paddle buttons on the back feel great. I mostly play Fortnite and I use the most sensitive setting for my right trigger and the middle sensitivity for my left trigger. It’s taking me a bit to switch to using my back buttons instead of using the buttons on the front, but I’ll get there with more practice! The looks are great as well, but my favorite part is the magnetic charging station. I just lay the controller back in its case and it immediately starts charging! I don’t have to move it around first to make it work either. 10/10 would recommend. If it was $30-40 cheaper, I think these would be flying off the shelves!

    Arrived fast and packaged well. This controller is a huge step up from the OEM controller that comes with the console. If you're serious about your gaming and want to take your play to the next level, this Elite controller with mappable buttons is a MUST have.

    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.

    [Employee of bestbuy] The controller has been working great it exactly what I wanted, I’ve been using it for 3 weeks so far and playing with it has been fun. I would recommend if you want an elite controller without the other accessories.

    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.

    After using the Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller I can confidently say I will not be going back to stock controllers anytime soon. Another great investment for someone looking to upgrade their setup! I got mine on clearance because it was returned too. LOOK FOR THE DEALS!
