    This is a nice controller and a great upgrade from the Series 1. It's a lot better and smoother and fixes a lot of problems from the first version.

    I have liked the elite controllera but the stick drift is still an issue for me. I returned about 3 controllers so far and wish they had a way to replace the modules. If they ever come out with an elite controller that allows u to replace the stick modules it would be a near perfect controller

    Would definitely recommend buying this controller even if you are not a fan of the paddles. Once you get used to them you will never forget back to a normal controller.

      Hey Steve,

      Thank you for sharing your experience with the new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. It's great to hear that you're enjoying the functionality of the back paddles, and we agree that it's difficult to go back to a standard controller once you've gone Elite. We hope you win a lot of matches with it.

      Happy gaming,

    This is a really solid controller with a nice case. The XBOX app lets you create three custom button layouts and save them to the controller. I also change the center button LED, so that each custom button layout has its own color.

    What a great controller. The trigger lock is perfect for FPS games. Greatest feel to the controller. A little heavier than regular controllers but you get used to it.
