    By far the best xbox controller you can get, easy to use and customize to your liking. The stiffness of the triggers is a game changer in any games, makes you ads and shot so much faster. Once u buy this controller you’ll never buy a regular controller again. Ive bought 4 so far and will continue too.

    Elite 2 controller core for the win

    Definitely worth the buy if you previously had an elite controller. If your old expensive elite 2 controller broke and need a replacement? Buy the core and take the parts off your old controller and voila, you have a fully functional elite 2 controller with all the bells and whistles at a fraction of the price. Don't forget the protection plan for when you get stick drift.

    This is by far the best controller you can buy for Xbox. It is so customizable, comes with a built in battery that last supper long and they even included a charging case for the controller.

    It’s an overall solid controller. The reason for the four stars is the wear and tear. Sticks get dick drift after a year of heavy gameplay and considering the price I believe it should be at least two years for any part malfunction

    This thing has some heft to it, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying hours of play. Easily the best Xbox controller available, and that is considering the Scuf Gaming and Battle Beaver options. I love the build quality and the ease of use with the trigger stops and paddles. I can swap in and swap out paddles, the directional pad, thumbsticks, and macro's quickly and easily thanks to the clever design of the whole controller. I also like that I can adjust the thumbstick tension. The carrying case with the ability to use a charging pad from within is a nice touch.

    Not bad works like any other controller and is very comfortable. But i am experiencing some analog drag on the left stick. I dont know if it is a product issue but hopefully the company knows this issue with their products and will fix it.
