    I Though The Product Was A Waste Of Money At First But Boy Was I Wrong. This Controller Is Made With The Gamer In Mind Its Made From Premium Materials and Overall Just Feels Like A Better Piece Of Hardware. You Can Add The Paddles To The Back Change The D Pad Change How Low You Can Press The Triggers. This Will Be Your Last Controller

    The controller feels and looks great, but can only be charged with a wire. The battery cant be removed, which means if it fails the controller is a goner.

    I love this controller, the paddles are shorter than the series 1, so no more accidental presses if you set it down on the couch or something. Only small problem I had, was the rubber tips on the trigger adjustments kept falling off. Never affected performance or anything like that though.

    This is my second elite 2 controller. The first one broke in less than one year and I didn't buy the best buy warranty. This time around I did. These controller have nice features but they tend to fall apart quickly.
