    Great controller. The added weight, adjustable tension on the joysticks, and overall feel surpass the standard controller. Highly recommended to gamers who want a more substantial controller.

    I bought this controller in excellent condition open box. I don’t think I would consider it in excellent condition, but the controller itself is amazing. I love the back detachable buttons, and the weight of the controller Is on the heavy side, which gives it a premium feel. It definitely feels like a $200 controller. If you’re a hard-core gamer, I recommend buying it. You can map out the buttons on the accessories app on your Xbox very easily. You can also create up to three profiles. I don’t recommend it for the casual gamer.

    Its what you need. If you need a reliable simple and comfortable controller this is it. Officially licensed and backed by a big company, anything goes wrong(which it does it being heavily abused during online gameplay) then you have xbox 1 year warranty. Feels nice in the hands. Also has rechargeable batteries the way it should.

    Love the set up options, you can really customize this controller. I don't like the texture as much as I did the first Elite controller, but this one is OK. Internal battery has been great so far, holds charge for a long time. Adjustable tension on the sticks is a cool feature. They are very pricey I think though.

    Lot's to be said: Quality is way better than the original, and the back panels are awesome. Yet you can only use the XYBA buttons with the back padels. If a PC player, you cannot have different controller profiles. Lastly and major: I have not had one controller last more than two years and I take care of my equipment. Usually, the joystick or the back top trigger becomes unresponsive. Also, of the 4 or 5 I have had at least one top button becomes lagged, usually "A". In the one I have now the right joystick does not click. No melee for me :(. Overall much a better controller than the original but if a gamer be prepared to have some hardware issues. Get warranty!

    Best controller I’ve ever owned. Unbelievable battery life, different analogs to swap out depending on preference and adjustable tension on the thumb sticks, as well as paddles in the back. No idea how this controller can ever be outdone.

    If you are sick of removing your thumbs from your joysticks when you are in the middle of a battle, you would enjoy this controller. For me, I play a lot of first person shooters and this has helped me elevate my game okay. Im able to continue to battle with out removing my thumbs from the joysticks. The build quality is really nice and feels well built. There is a bit more weight to the controller because they use more metal parts. The only issue I have noticed is stock drift still plaques the controller. At this price point I would love to see hall effects joysticks. Other the. That the controller is worth the money.

    I use exclusively this controller to play games as it has a great feel to it, the battery lasts a long time and having the options to add triggers to any game is great.

    Responsive and Sturdy. Trouble with camera stick locking forward which seems to be a common occurrence in the series 2, otherwise would give 5 stars. Battery life is fantastic. I didn't experience any drift. Joy stick options are great, helps with precision movement on aiming etc...

    Got to say it feels solid, plays solid and the customization are a great thing. Even if getting a little sore in one position switching to a different thumb stick helps eliminate it for me. Great battery life and having bluetooth capabilities is nice for on the run playing. The nice charging stand and even port in the case is a nice touch to being able to charge it protected.

    My son was using a Razer Wolverine Ultra for his Xbox Series X and really like it, but one of the buttons started to stick so rather than break it trying to take it apart, we decided to purchase this Elite Series 2 Controller. I got lucky and found an open box controller in what appeared to be unused condition for nearly half off of the new controller price. Within a couple of days of using the controlled my Son had it all figured out and really likes it. If you have used the Razer controllers before the only major difference is the rear triggers on the Elite Series 2 are closer to the grips and are very sensitive to the press. Otherwise, it works well!

    Excellent controller. Feels slicker than the elite 1 at first but when you actually use it the handle area gets the perfect grip from heat. Perfect for competitive game, ei Call of Duty to get the button config just how you want it w the paddles so you dont take youtlr thumbs off the sticks

    Honestly, I didn't have high hopes due to the hype, but it absolutely lives up to it! Great weight in the hands, each button click and trigger pull feels solid, and the grips are fantastic feeling. GET IT WITH THE CHARGING CASE!
