    A good controller

    Controller works well with Xbox 1. Controls are firm and do not lag. The device fits my hands comfortably. Being wireless helps provide more mobility while playing. Feels like a quality product.

    The controller is great- at first the paddles were stiff and wobble a little, but it has gotten better. It does collect dust easily but just got to wipe it off. Still really good and I love it!

    I LOVE MY CONTROLLER! The only downside is when you drop your controller, the pieces go flying everywhere, this is bad if you have a wired set and are clumsy! Feels very luxurious.

    This is the best game pad ever made. Fully customizable and it comes with extra buttons. Make sure to get the warranty. Like all pads, this will break with heavy use.

    The controller itself is the best controller I've ever used. Customization is excellent! The problem is the build quality. I've had to GSP multiple of these controllers because of things like stick drift, stick failure and multiple button failures.

    Heavier than the series 1 controller

    This series 2 elite controller does not have a removable battery like the first one did, you get a charger to plug it in via usb or you can just lay it in the case and it charges just by having the controller laying in it's own case. It's case it hardwired when charging. Also, it weighs more than the first one, so keep that in mind if your wrists start to hurt. Overall it's a nice controller, let's see if this one can hold up to play time unlike it's predecessor! It's compatible with the "new" xbox that is supposedly coming out soon.

    I’ve had the original elite, multiple scuff controllers, and the razer Wolverine. I’ve had this controller for a few months now and is hands down the best of all in my opinion extremely pleased with this purchase.

    Fantastic controller. Worked perfectly out of the box, despite what some have said. I thought the original Elite controller was the best I had ever used until I got this one. The Series 2 is superior in every way.

    I don't know how I played without this controller for so many years. The short throw trigger and adjustable stick tension make for a remarkable difference in gameplay.
