    works great. Bought it for my 13 year old son. We didn't think he needed the one we bought for my 24 year old son which was all customizable. This one works great for an amateur gamer. We just want one that lastes

    If you want to be in the game, then the elite series 2 controller is for you. I did have the black one and the rubber is coming off it. I had it for 3 years with moderate game play. So, I picked up the blue one for a very reasonable price. Once you go elite, I doubt if you ever go back to other controllers. If you can, get one and get it on sale.

    Amazing controller, not one issue I’ve encountered from other reviews. Controller feels great, buttons are responsive and I love the versatility of changing the sticks and it’s tension! Would recommend for future buyers.

    Great controller. The colors are way better when holding it in hand. The top buttons and triggers are a very nice metallic shade of red. If you don't like the new d-pad, you can switch it out cheaply and easily with traditional cross-type ones since the d-pad and analog joysticks are magnetically attached.

    One of the best controllers I've owned this far. The weight makes it feel amazing in your hands and the button customization on this version is awesome! I've bought two of these just for how much I love this controller!

    Improvement over the series 1

    The grips feel way better and it feels like it’s just better made than the previous series. The battery life has been amazing. I’m a streamer and play a good amount but so far this controller has been nothing but great. I wish it came with 2 of the tall thumbsticks instead of 1 and the paddles on the back are smaller than the series one but luckily I just transferred the larger paddles over since I had the series one. Thumbsticks however are a different size attachment so you can’t transfer those over. Like I Said so far the controller seems like a big improvement but we’ll see how the durability holds up and I wish they gave us another large thumbsticks and the paddles were slightly bigger.

    I think these are a great alternative to the Elite Pro. If you're just looking for a nice rechargeable controller with the ability to upgrade what you choose. Still, the Pro has all the bells and whistles and that nice case! I doubt you'll be disappointed with either/or.

    Love it. Lame it doesn’t come with all the bumpers for the extra buttons. That “kit” is another $50 or junky stuff on amazon
