    I purchased this because the price was really good with the "member price". Now I do not care about color, but the red was cheaper than the white or blue, so that is what I purchased. I already had a Elite Series 2 controller that has some pretty severe stick drift in the right thumbstick, so I was able to get this and just use all of the accessories from that controller with it.

    Bumpers still need improved or changed to buttons

    Bumpers are better than the 1st version but Ive went through 3 of these controllers already. I would of thought since this was a huge problem with the first one they might have just went with buttons instead of bumpers. I know i hit them pretty hard sometimes but a almost $200 controller and V2 shouldn't have this problem.

    Very good upgrade from the first one. The removable charging dock from carrying case is a very nice feature you can either leave it in the case or take it out, very nice feel to the controller as well

    I like this controller but all the issues i read online caused me to exchange it. Its almost 200 dollars. Shouldnt have any problems for a long time. I did start to notice stick drift in the 9th day unfortunately. But it feels super good. They need to keep working on it to make it more worth it. At the end of the day its a 200 dollar controller. Not worth it to me

    Best controller for the money in overall quality. Having a Best Buy protection plan has been the better choice compared to Microsoft Xbox's warranty.
