    The best controller you can get for PC or Console gaming. The heavy duty feel demonstrates the sturdiness of the controller. The adjustable trigger sensitivity works flawlessly. The price point is perfect for those who already own an elite 2 with the additional paddles, and thumb sticks as this product doesn't come with them, but works just the same.

    The overall build of the controller is very nice. The added paddles are not my thing and I end up hitting them on accident more than not due to the size of my hands. Bluetooth doesn’t work for sht in windows 10. Drops connection every couple of seconds which is why the low score. Had to get an Xbox wifi adapter to fix the issue. For the price I should have to do that.

    This controller is much better than the original Xbox controllers. It’s heavier, has grips for your palms and much quicker analog stick movement.

    Great buy if you are replacing a older existing Elite series 2 controller and have the additional attachments. Works as expected. Love the feel. Would love it to be a little lighter as the Elite controller is one of the heaviest controllers on the market. Very responsive.

    Definitely not an overall improvement from the first generation. Battery life is better, more mapping options, but past that, the buttons feel flimsier than ever, the buttons and bumpers will start to stick no matter how well you take care of it, and they decided to make the removable parts not interchangeable between the generations, just as a power move, don't see any benefit to that

    I enjoy the ability to set up profiles for different games that you can swap between. Granted its only three slots but it is easy to swap them out within the app in the settings. Definitely recommend to a competitive gamer out there to give you an edge in the field.

    We got this to replace an elite controller that our kids dropped. This is every bit worth the money if you like to gaming. It takes a moment to get use to the paddles but once you do there’s no going back. Worth the money. Having the ability to select different settings for different games and have them programmed is epic!
