    Bought this as a gift for my husband. You should get the Geek Squad protection with it. With the way my guy plays, I have a feeling we’ll need it one day. Love the replacement buttons and the fact that you can leave it in the case to charge wirelessly. No more buying those rechargeable batteries! My husband loved it

    Overall, I am enjoying this controller. My only problem with it is that the paddles don't give me a steady stream of shots in my games. Even when I hold the paddles all the way down, it still has a significant stutter effect when I'm shooting my weapons in The Division 2.

    Great service. Great people who are always trying to get the right product for you. I was in a market to get a new TV. The staff was super helpful explaining the pros and cons of each model. Came home with a perfect TV!

    $200 for bootleg QC

    This is my second Elite 2 since its launch and this one also has different issues from the first I had to exchange for quality issues with the triggers. This one has an RB that sometimes doesnt register or registers two inputs instantly. As well as an X button that has become spongy over time, Which has never happened before on any controller Ive had, Its not cheeto or dorito ingress. And multiple attempts at compressed air has yielded no improvements, I can only chalk this up to manufacture defects. As to the one this replaced, It had an LT that would get stuck on 0% depression until "Broken" through with unnatural force. As if some component within was brushing against the trigger housing. $200 for a premium product with magnitudes worse QC than the standard issue controllers. And this is just a repeat of the Elite 1. Microsoft outdoing its premium product quality flops yet again. At least the rubberized grips dont slough off after a few months like the first one did.

    This controller is what every gamer wants. Great design, programmable buttons, and great grips. Not to mention it’s rechargeable! If you can get past the price, this is an excellent controller. I use it for every game, but it really shines in competitive shooters because you can shorten the triggers and map certain actions to the paddles.
