    This is a colorful and durable gaming controller. It is very responsive to my pc games. Comfortable in the palm of my hands, and it was simple to get up and running quickly.

    By far best controller I own. It was worth every cent. The battery life is exceptionally long and the texture on this controller is unbelievable. Once you buy this controller you will never go back. This is top tier and if you don't have one, I recommend saving money to get one you'll thank me later.

    This is a very good controller. It took my gaming to a new level. It has a switch on the underside that shortens or lengthens the pull of the triggers. A really great feature. You also have the option to change thumbsticks that come with varying lengths and shapes. And it’s done magnetically. It also has 4 paddles underneath the controller that can be mapped for different functions...I found this too advanced for me. And perhaps the best feature feature is the way it feels in your hands, it’s much more comfortable than the one that comes with the Xbox.

    Now when i first saw the price i was shocked and almost turned away. But then i saw that there is NO battery pack and its just rechargeable. For this reason alone i bought it. I was pleasantly surprised however, the quality and feel of the controller is probably the best xbox even PlayStation controller i felt. It doesnt have the haptic feedback/adaptive triggers of the ps5’s controller, but as far as the xbox goes, if you have the money or this is on sale, id highly recommend it.

    This is a great feeling controller. The functionality on the controller itself and also what you can do in the Xbox accessories app is nice. But if you play a lot, especially games like Fortnite that are demanding on the bumpers, they will fail in about 8 months. I've ran through 3 of these in about 16 months. ALWAYS get Geek Squad protection on these.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Controller is very high quality, all buttons and triggers function as they should. The magnetic change of sticks and D pad is a nice touch that feels secure and I have yet to have one come loose mid play. Case is nice quality and the ability to charge while inside is a nice feature. Price is higher than I would prefer but for a nice controller I can see the justification. Features are perfect for FPS titles but have yet to see a need on other games. If you mainly play FPS and want a quality controller I would recommend this.

    Feels very nice in the hands. Battery life is more than enough for a couple days without charging. Bluetooth works flawlessly, and it easilt switches from conoles to bluetooth. Buttons and triggers feel good, and the texturing is comfortable whike still allowing for better control.

    High quality and feels great in my hands. One star off because I think there the paddle position is close enough that occasionally I’ll press the bottom paddle if my grip is off at all. Also a star off because it came out of the box with stick drift, which is a common complaint with this model. Great overall with minor imperfections.

    Huge improvement over previous Elite controller

    Best controller on the market. Buttons are extremely responsive. Trigger pulls now have two settings to shorten the pull resulting in quicker shots fired in first person shooters. Power button is a shorter push to turn on and off. It just feels like a high end controller. My old one has a thumb stick that would drift upwards when not in use, other buttons felt like you had to mash down on. This is more responsive, more clicky if that makes sense. If you owned the previous Elite you’ll love this even more. Carrying case allows you to charge while in case. Battery life doubled. This is a 10/10.

    Worth the high price tag. The extra weight of this controller is Nice in hand. The customization of the back petals are great. The only bad part is the price.

    Best controller I ever had ... I meant that , I never wanted to spend the amount of money for a top of the line elite series 2 but this fit my exact need and played better than anything ever before . I hit the perfect sweet spot . Not to mention , Best Buy had a sale at the time , so it was a beautiful experience, top to bottom .

    Nice High End Controller but is it worth the Price

    The Elite Series 2 is a really nice high end controller. The Customization of buttons is super nice for series gamers while the build quality and general in hand feel are far better than the standard Xbox Controller. Also really love that it comes with it's own charging dock. But is it worth the retail price? In my opinion, No. Look for it on sale for around $139. I feel like that price is a little more in line with where it should be.
