    Love everything about this controller, do wish could have more controller over program two or three commands to one trigger or quick access to start a recording, but no complaints I love the feel and weight so much I unfortunately hate playing with a regular controller.

    Pretty great controller. The adjustment in the joysticks is great and I've had zero problems with it unlike the previous generation elite controller. Also have found the controller to have zero stick walk unlike the cheaper Xbox controllers.

    Not worth the price. The controller is a good idea. But it is poor quality. Buttons don't register some of the time. Bumpers start to loosen up. Stick drift is common in every controller, as it is on this one. Better off getting a cheaper controller with paddles on the back. That way you can buy 3 of them for the price. Of this one.

    Completely customizable controller that has a solid feel in your hands. It looks amazing and performs flawlessly. Once customized to your liking, the game play becomes so much easier. It has taken my enjoyment of my Xbox One X to a whole different level. I highly recommend this controller.

    I’m giving this controller 5 stars based off of the actual controller and feel of it. I’ve been using this controller for about 4-5 years now and it is my favorite controller of all time. With that being said I highly suggest the geek squad warranty because I am very clean and careful with my controllers and I haven’t had one last more than a year. The buttons become sticky or stop working and stick drift is going to happen at some point no matter what. I love the controller, but the longevity is not what it should be for $200

    So much better than series 1. Little disappointed that there’s not two extra long joysticks as I use those on the series one. Overall feel is greatly improved grips are great the battery life is phenomenal and be able to charge it right in the case is even better.

    This is the best controller I have ever used. I already had one before purchasing this one, this one is a gift for my nephew. The only thing that I can say is that the price might not be in everyone’s price range but if you can afford it I would highly recommend it.

    Everything about this controller is awesome, unless of course you are me and the pads on the back are sensitive to you squeezing the controller from anxiety. Haha. Go get it if you can hold your controller lightly

    Perhaps it's just mental, but having the pro controller, that's wired to the consul, makes me feel that there's no delay, and the performance shows ( probably just mental, but I like it).

    Disappointed, had to return the first one as buttons came broken, and reordered a second, it worked, and I loved it, so I give it 3 stars, rapid hairtriggers, paddles are good addition.

    The customization this controller allows will take your gaming to the next level. The build quality makes it feel like it should cost much more than it does and I am still finding new ways to make it my own after several months. Don’t miss out!
