    The controller is awesome! I love the ease of swapping joysticks, and the use of paddles. The adjustment of the trigger pull is so cool and the hair trigger click adjustment makes my shooting accuracy much better. Don’t forget, you can adjust the tension of the sticks which is surprisingly useful.

    When i tell you this remote is exactly what any gamer wants i mean it. I have plenty of remotes and i also have the playstation pro remote when i say this dominates the playstation pro remote its because it has 4 back paddles interchangeable magnetic thumb sticks if you have any doubt go with the xbox elite

    While I love how clean this looks in the white color, I love the feel of this second generation. I didn’t necessarily need the paddles in the back and I already had a charging solution so I didn’t mind just getting the core version.

    It’s a great controller but the QC could use a lot of work. I got the Geek Squad protection this time to protect myself.

    Would highly recommend. The clickiness of the back paddles is very satisfying and the ability to change your controller on the fly is very useful.

    Definitely wish there were more settings for the joystick tensioner but overall it's a great controller. The grips are nice and the feel is very premium.

    Once I got used to the elite controller I feel like i cant go back to the regular one. My Elite 2 RB started to go bad after 2 years of 20+ hour gameplay per week. Got this one as it is cheaper and I already had the extra assessories. I did also purchase the Best Buy 2 year warrenty just in case. So far everything works great and I checked all functions in the Xbox Assesories app when it arrived. So far I would recommend this.

    Amazing controller !!! I have been playing Video games for serval years now and have gone through a lot of controllers. The Xbox elite controller has been by far the best. Longevity and ability to program your controller to fit your gaming style is amazing.
