    I was hesitant to purchase this controller based off the reviews, but I’m glad I gave it a chance. I honestly cannot find a single flaw on this controller. I’m not sure how Microsoft or anyone else could top this. The price is absolutely worth it in my opinion.

    Best controller out there. Great weight, and good quality feel. Only complaint, that some will consider a positive, is the built in rechargeable battery. I prefer Eneloop standard batteries rather than non-user replaceable battery that certainly will degrade. The prices on this has fallen so it is much more reasonable price than the original MSRP.

    Good controller with good external build quality and feel. Always get the warranty as this controller is known to have issues with stick drift or buttons getting stuck. Great while it works!

    The Elite Series 2 controller is one of, if not, my favorite controllers ok the market. Its very comfortable to hold in your hands, and offers tons of customizability for many different games and play styles. This is a must for any xbox user.

    Very good controller! love the customization for the controller especially the triggers and tension for the thumbsticks. Really helps with FPS games. Also like the fact I can have multiple profiles for the controller so the paddles can be for different buttons on each profile or off. Overall happy with this and the case is also a bonus, Must have for Xbox and pc users.

    Overall great high end controller, just be sure to be up to date on the warranty so you can send it in to have the wear and tear fixed. Stick starts to drift after a couple months of heave use which is expected, paddles start to stick, just make sure you send it before the warranty ends.

    Great pad, but it didnt come with the extra triggers and pads I was expecting. Was surprised that it came with an XBOX app to adjust many of the settings! Real great feel and longer battery life than a std controller.. AND BLUE!!!

    The built-in battery pack and grips are great. Charge lasts 1-2days with 5 hour play. The sensitivity slide bars below don’t seem to make a big difference. I would have liked the paddle controls as an option.

    I really like this controller because they fell nice in your hand but the quality is questionable. I bought an open box and everything worked great except for one button that you needed to press hard to register anything. Make sure you test all the buttons if you buy this. Button can be remapped to their rear buttons if you want to do that.

    Best Controller I Have Ever Used

    This is the best controller I have ever played with! The buttons are very responsive, the ability to change sensitivity on that trigger buttons is amazing, and the paddle buttons on the back feel great. I mostly play Fortnite and I use the most sensitive setting for my right trigger and the middle sensitivity for my left trigger. It’s taking me a bit to switch to using my back buttons instead of using the buttons on the front, but I’ll get there with more practice! The looks are great as well, but my favorite part is the magnetic charging station. I just lay the controller back in its case and it immediately starts charging! I don’t have to move it around first to make it work either. 10/10 would recommend. If it was $30-40 cheaper, I think these would be flying off the shelves!

    Picked this up a replacement for my last elite pro which I bough about 5 years Earlier. Saved myself the money on having an extra case as the extra paddles and knobs work on the new controller.
