    Never knew what the hype was for these expensive controllers until i finally bought one! The grip is better, and the material feels more premium! If you are hesitant on buying this controller dont wait go ahead and buy it!

    Controller is the best out there except for the fact that the thumbsticks will start to drift in a few months. Definitely get the replacement plan. Hall effect sticks just don't feel the same.

    Always replace these things within 2 years due to some type of failure of the buttons, but that's for they make their money. Feels very nice and I love it just hate that it's a money dump. Would sell for around 100$ is still recommend for fps controller users.

    The elite series 2 controller is the best controller for xbox (and pc) that your money can buy, the only downside being is it doesn't come with the entire package for swapping parts in and out like the original elite series. Sturdy construction, very good grip on the palms and the buttons are extremely responsive.

    Best controller if you are using steam on your PC I would advise to get the protection plan, xbox controllers can stop working for no reason (according to some reddit posts) or stick drift and this one is no exception something that has not happened till this day with my ps4 ps5 and switch controllers on my pc, mines has not had issues so far, but I can say by far its the best controller I own

    This controller has weight to it. Very solid controller, had to return once because of button sticky issue. But no problem besides that.

    This was my first elite controller and it really made a difference! Learning to map the buttons how you want is difficult at first but once you do it and adjust, you will notice a difference! My game play has been better and a lot of my online friends have noticed a difference. The grip makes it always a comfortable hold even during intense situations. Adjusting the trigger is amazing especially with shooter games, I have had people think I had a mod because my trigger finger with a pistol was incredible. Honestly these controllers are expensive, but well worth it in the long run if you are an avid gamer. Please buy the warranty with Best Buy, it's worth it in the long run.

    My son loves this controller! He was very excited to get this on Christmas! And he hasn’t broken it yet like he did his last one from constantly dropping it. He actually takes care of this one because he can tell the difference in the quality
