    A controller like no other.

    I've held a few controllers in my hands, from the stock xbox controller, to the elite series 1 and 2. Let me say the most enjoyable controller for my gaming experience has been the elite series 2. With interchangeable thumbsticks, trigger stops to reduce the range of motion in FPS games, and paddles placed very well on the back of the controller, the elite series 2 certainly feels like it elevates my gameplay. I would certainly recommend it.

    If you really into gaming and want a better handling feel and configurability, then this is the only option for you.  The materials are much nicer than the standard. The triggers and buttons have a much more better feel. The extra configurability Menu is a great plus as well.

    Improvement over the Series 1 Controller

    So far, this seems like MS took the shortfalls of the Series 1 controller and addressed each one. This fits my hand better, has more personalization, and is rechargeable. I am concerned that the battery is not replaceable, not only for longevity, but on those long gaming sessions. Time will tell if the battery will outlast my ability to game for extended hours. Bought the extended warranty just in case this has similar problems with the bumper buttons or joystick drift over time.

      Hey there,

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. We're glad that it's been an improvement over its predecessor for you, and that you're enjoying its updated design.

      The internal rechargeable battery has been designed to perform without any degradation in capacity for two years, so it should hold up to those long gaming sessions. If you do find yourself in need of service for it, please contact Xbox Support for assistance here: https://aka.ms/AA4w2z7

    The used controller was very accurate. The controller was in excellent condition. It had all the parts that come with the controller and was clean and ready to use. I will always trust bestbuy with its open box items and they are always in correct condition
