    What an amazing controller! It is fully customizable and you can switch and put the buttons that attach magnetically in any way you like. The triggers have grip as well and the remote is built with high quality materials. It is a bit heavier than other controls but its worth the money

    Quality issues plague this controller

    Do not buy this controller. It has extremely common issues where it will drop inputs *constantly*. I'm on my second controller and it's still doing it, this time worse than the first -- the first dropped just the A button, this one drops A and Y (and more frequently). This controller is $150 and is worse quality than any $20 controller I've ever used. The paddles on the back are an awesome idea. As is the D-pad with the diagonals. And the ability to re-map buttons. But the controller is very literally unusable for any game that requires any amount of precision. If you can't spam buttons, or need perfect timing for anything, you can't use it. I tried to exchange it and get a new one and that resulted in just getting another, more broken one. Now my return window has closed, so I'll have to send it to Microsoft for warranty. And very likely repeatedly, until I just give up. There are reports of people doing this more than 8 times and still getting unusable controllers. Learn from the mistake of myself and others, don't waste your money on this useless trash. Get any other controller and you'll be much better off.

    When first buying this controller it was great, lasted a year and a half. When I go to exchange It with the warranty it lasted 2 months and buttons are not working correctly with no damage done to the controller. Waist of warranty money.

    Inalready had the original v2. Decided to buy another and was able to get it for cheaper without all the accessories which i already had. So this is a perfect buy for those who alreay have one and all the accessories.

    Love the new colors. Same performance/feel as the original Elite 2 but with a little more style. Highly recommend but based on my experience, it’s best to have the TotalTech or geek squad plans to protect it.

    Controller feels great in the hands, has grips on the outer wings, controllable triggers as well as 4 programmable buttons on the back of the controller that are essentially easier ways of hitting X Y A B. Would definitely recommend!
