    Amazing controller for hardcore gaming

    This controller is like something from a sci-fi movie. The case that it came in itself charges the controller. It's built like a tank, very sturdy, but light weight. Easy to hold for those long hours of gaming. I highly recommend buying this for the gamer in your life.

    I own the Razr Wolverine wired and I thought that was an amazing controller but this one hits it out of the park. Feels great in the hands, love the customization and the fact I can charge it while it’s in its case.

    It's an excellent controller, easy to use. I do recommend that you purchase the geek squad repairs services. I've had mine for a little over a year and have some stick drift, other than that still fully operational. It's a bit complicated to fix yourself.

    I absolutely love elite controllers. I buy them for both myself and my son. Bought a set of gen 2s to replace the gen 1s we both had. I can't game with a normal controller after owning an elite. The new changes to the controller were also very nice.

    Xbox Elite 2 controller 1 month review

    Honestly I was skeptical at first, but the controller fits very comfortably and has a hight build quality. Stick drift is definitely still a thing, but with the stick tension adjustment it was easy to find a balance, unlike the original Xbox controller. You get what you get as far as tension goes. Overall great product, things I wish it had; hall effect joysticks and a better price tag (high cost).

    Real good but breaks overtime. On my 4th one and just the bumpers break after time. Not to much stick drift.

    This controller replaced a white one we had that broke. My son still uses this controller every time he plays his game. I don't know too much about gaming but my son speaks highly of this controller. BUY THE WARRANTY!

    The Xbox Elite Series 2 Controller is a remarkable masterpiece that redefines precision and customization in gaming. Designed with utmost attention to detail, this controller exemplifies excellence in both form and function. The customization options are unparalleled, offering an array of interchangeable thumbsticks, paddles, and D-pads. These let you fine-tune your controller to suit your playstyle, giving a competitive edge in any game. Furthermore, the addition of adjustable tension on the thumbsticks provides enhanced control and responsiveness. absolutely would recommend this incredible piece of hardware!!

    The controller is great! However, I mainly enjoy the weighted part of it. Controller gets ridiculous stickdrift after just a few uses.

    The ultimate upgrade for my Alienware R16 setup

    Best controller on the market, period. I use this for almost all my gaming on my Alienware R16 and the build quality is night and day compared to a standard controller. The adjustable-tension sticks and paddles make a huge difference in feel and precision. If you’re serious about gaming on a PC or console, it’s worth every penny.

    Used to play on my pc. Had to buy a Xbox wireless receiver didn’t work with built in Bluetooth. So if using on pc you will have to buy one. But other than that, it works really good. A must buy. I have about 150 hours so far gaming, no problems.

    Build appears to be sturdy and quality at first use. Paddles are responsive and made of metal so they won’t break. HOWEVER….. the left thumb stick has been known to get loose while in use. And the I started experiencing stick drift after 4 months of use. I recommend always buying the replacement warranty because you will need to use it.
