    I had a series 1 Elite and the only problem I had was with the rubber grips. They fixed that issue with the series 2. Very happy I bought another one. The Bluetooth option is great for connecting to your phone or computer as well.

    Took a little to get used to. Had to incorporate the paddles one at a time because the grip is kind of awkward. Longevity seems to be a issue with daily use so get the geek squad protection for sure.

    I got what I paid for. Missing a USB cable. A right bumper that works most of the time. The rubber end on the stopper switch spontaneously went missing

    Upgraded my original Elite remote to this one and I am finally able to use the rear buttons. For some reason the original remotes rear buttons were to large/long and I would accidentally press them all the time. With the new remote they’ve improved on that a lot. Great remote.

    The Xbox Elite 2 controller is a major improvement over the first generation with refined components and built in battery. The additional thumbsticks, dpad and charging cable all stashed easily within the super nice carrying case...perfect for Xcloud streaming sessions.

    Love the ability to assign the back buttons for ease of gaming. The triggers can be adjusted on the Xbox during setup for sensitivity. Love it. Would buy again

    the controller definitely makes playing games much better, the customizability makes every game more enjoyable. I was on the fence about getting it first, but this is definitely worth it!

    Well worth it if you plan to use all the features. One thing i would strongly recommend is the geek squad warranty. Trust me on this one. Its worth the cost for peace of mind.

    For those who are serious about every conceivable advantage this is it. The adjustable triggers alone make it worth it. Everything else is a bonus.

    Great, but the new PS5 DualSense is better

    The elite controller is a huge upgrade from the regular xbox controller, but the PS5 Dualsense controller beats this one despite being much cheaper. Microsoft should upgrade this with another one with better haptic feedback.

    After going through controllers, I decided to upgrade to the Elite. Feels great in your hands and should last longer based on build quality.
