    Paddles are great, long and good material. The case it comes with it’s cool, can hold the extra joysticks and directional buttons. Biggest issue was the accuracy of the joysticks. Very precise not what I’m used too from other controllers.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hey there,

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. We're glad that you're enjoying its paddles and carrying case, too. If it seems like the thumbsticks are too sensitive, you can adjust that sensitivity in the Xbox Accessories app. For more information, go here: https://support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/xbox-accessories-elite-series-2

      Hope that helps,
