    I had a standard xbox controller and you can feel the quality difference. The built in rechargeable battery has a impressive uptime. I also really like the swappable sticks and the adjustable triggers. Very nice unit and well worth the money!

    Throw your Scuf controller in the trash. Go for the Elite Series 2…much more nicer and does everything the Scuf does..plus it doesn’t make a $400 paperweight like mine did. GET THE 2 YEAR GEEK SQUAD WARRANTY because you can experience some issues but they will swap it right out.

    What's better than an Xbox one elite controller? An Xbox one elite series 2 controller. More options, more programs, they fixed the issue with the paddles getting in the way of your fingers wrapped around the bottom of the controller. 3 programmable settings for 3 different games instead of 2 with the previous controller. Price us crazy high tho, add in the extended warranty and that's alot of costco pizza i could buy

    Lots of customization options available and more comfortable than the standard Xbox controller. I think mostly competitive players can appreciate its features but still worth while if you know what you dislike about the standard controller. Biggest issue is you can't easily swap the battery, which is disappointing considering the cost of this product.

    My son had been asking for this controller for a while and though I don't quite understand all the different things it does he was thrilled when he opened this up on Christmas. It was his favorite present and he has been enjoying it since.

    Love the controller, it is amazingly effective and feels great. However, I had to purchase a second one after the first one started having problems after a year. Love it though so bought a new one at full price. Would only buy if you won't be hurting after your 200 controller starts to break down in a year. Use it for Halo, COD, and Skyrim.

    I absolutely LOVE this controller. There are negative reviews for it though with buttons sticking and bumpers breaking but tbh I just think some people don't treat their belongings very well. Ive had no issues and love how easy it is to use. The back paddles do take some getting use to but once you do its very hard to go back to anything else. The battery is rechargeable through USB c and its good for about 40 hours.

    Some Stick Drift out of the box

    This is a solid controller, but I wouldn't say elite. There is a little bit of drift on the right thumbs tick. This can be reduced through the Xbox Accessory App. but from what reviews I have read, this is a fairly normal issue with these controllers. I would say it is worth the Black Friday $100 price point but would recommend going a different way at higher retails.
