    It is great controller, very comfortable, build quality is outstanding, customization is fantastic, but the most important for me - battery life is super. It is expensive - but from my point of view totally worth it.

    You know one thing that I personally love? Its Simple, something that makes my life easier. And I can personally verify that this controller makes my life easier. Not too brag or anything, but ever since ive purchased this controller I have been untouchable in games. From fifa, to call of duty, I mean even fortnite. Im dishing it out all day with these sticks. Ive most definitely experience an improvement in my overall gaming experience since purchasing so would definitely recommend.

    This controllers battery has a long battery charge and I like they use a C type charging cable. This second generation Xbox elite controller is a lot better than the first generation controller because they did Add more upgrades to it to customize it to your play style

    Controller is very nice and well made. You can program it to do whatever you want. It’s solid and a nice weight. My favorite feature is that it charges when you put it back in the case, no plugging it in. I use this controller exclusively now.

    More durable than the elite 2 though a little lighter and it doesnt come with the case paddles sticks and d pad, those extras would net you the same price for the whole bundle anyway plus colors. Ive been abusing this thing on multiple high intensity games for a while and no broken bumpers or anything. Sticks arent aligned right though. So micro adjustments are hard but using the tall stick/controlfreeks fixes this for the most part. Now my hand doesnt cramp playing claw and of course double the control over everything 9/10

    I did lots of research before purchasing and had it narrowed down to this controller and a Scuff prestige. After purchasing the elite I am very happy I went with it. The customization of the controls is great and the feel of the controller in your hand is just what I was looking for.

    Love the feel of this controller. The rubbery grips give a better tactile feel. Slightly heavier, but not so much it feels uncomfortable. Haven’t played with adjustments just yet but the options of swapping out buttons is a definite plus.

    I’ve had an elite controller in the past that had some issues (button sticking, mild stick drift even after adjustment). This one feels like they finally have it figured it out. I haven’t had any issues. I love being able to map buttons to the extra triggers and how responsive the controls are. Great for fast paced games (ARPGS, FPS, Battle Royales).

    Great controller! I've used it since it came out and has been great. The customization is easy, back paddles are very convenient to use, and the grip makes sure my sweaty hands don't accidentally drop it. My ONLY suggestion is to get the 2 year geek squad coverage on it. You won't regret it. I had some bad stick drift and a bumper not register all the time when clicked. Like all things you use often, they'll get some wear on it. Best buy makes it easy with the coverage.

    I had the original Series 2 but I wanted the White one since it’s announcement. They also announced that the elite Series is apart of the design lab on Xbox website so you can customize the way you’d like. Like advertised, it doesn’t come with the extra accessories like the original but if you don’t use them or had paddles and thumb sticks from previous ownership, you’re set. Update the controller once you pair it and you’ll be able to change the color of the Xbox logo.
