    No regrets, it’s worth the investment. Great grip, weight and the extra buttons behind the controller are really helpful for CoD!

    This controller is reasonable and works well with my A40s headset. I really enjoy the option of wired or wireless. It makes a difference. Especially, playing FPS games.

    I upgraded from the Elite controller version 1... I love the textured grip where your palms rest, as well as the additional accessories you get vs the Series 1. For example. there's now a 360 style pop on joystick that's noticeably bigger/rounder than Xbox One's and I LOVE IT! I've missed the bigger/larger sticks so getting this back is welcomed. I just wish they'd make the 360 larger sticks with the textured grip on the rim of it like the Xbox One's sticks so I could have the best of both world's lol. No complaints though!

    Best controller I've ever used. 4/5 because I've had to send it back TWICE because of issues. MS is pretty quick (7ish days on average from sending back to receiving your replacement) and I cannot play on other Xbox controllers anymore, and it makes the cool PS% dual sense feel like it's just lacking features. I HIGHLY recommend you buy the 2 year replacement plan from BB. For hassle free replacements.
