    For this price it better be. Build quality feels solid, used it to beat Jedi Fallen Order recently and the adjustable thumbstick tension and trigger adjustments are nice touches for sure. I've used the pedal triggers but mostly I take them off, I haven't had that much of a use for them save for one game so far, Devil May Cry 5 and in that it was nice. The app is pretty straightforward as well.

    This controller is great however the upper right paddle came in defective. You have to click it down pretty hard for the upper right paddle button to register not like how you would regularly click it. I can hear and feel the click and everything, but it just doesn’t register. Other than that, this controller is an excellent choice

      Hi there,

      We're sorry that there's an issue with the upper right paddle on your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. If it's still within Best Buy's return period, we recommend exchanging it for a new one. If that's not possible, you may also contact Xbox Support for assistance under the controller's 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,

    I've had several custom controllers from other companies and they just don't hold up and they are actually more expensive if you want to get on the same level as this one. I strongly suggest you get this product if you are looking for custom buttons.

    I love this for customizing game play. This allows you to tailor your controller to each came. Only three slots can be active at any one time, but you can make many profiles for different games. It even have the option to turn of the profiles so in reality you can have standard, and 3 customized slots with the push of a button without going into settings.
