    Confusing name - not the "premium" version.

    This one was a bit of a letdown. I upgraded from the original Elite controller because that one requires a USB dongle to connect to my machine and was hoping for the same experience. This one feels cheaper, has some weird issues with connectivity, and overall disappoints in the aesthetics department. Otherwise, it's a decent controller and I'd recommend these over third-party brands any day.

    I honestly love everything about this controller with regard to the features and way it changes how I play. However, I am needed to replace the controller again after having button issues and stick drift issues. I always take great care of my tech so these widespread mechanical issues are a damper on an otherwise great controller. Definitely get the Best Buy replacement warranty for this one.

    I had the series 1 elite controller, but the series 2 is a huge step up. Integrated battery, extra customization options, and a wireless charging option - I was sold
