    This is absolutely the best controller on the market. There's simply no other controller out there that gives you this level of fine tuning, not to mention the build quality being great. Price is steep.

    I love these controllers and series 2 improves on the original in every way. Unfortunately, my left stick is now getting stickdrift but, that's why you buy the replacement plan.

    It’s hard to recommend this controller especially at this price. After about six months it developed significant stick drift, just like it’s predecessor. Since then, Microsoft has replaced it twice for me, which I’m grateful for since it was $200, but that window is now closed and when it inevitably starts drifting again I’ll be out of luck. If you can get it on sale and you don’t mind repairing it yourself, maybe it’s worth buying, but if stick drift is a deal breaker for you just walk away.

    Pretty good; I like that I can adjust the trigger pressure so that I barely have to tap it for it to press. Sometimes it lags, this may be due to the bluetooth connection. I use it with my PC, so that might be why ? otherwise, great controller

    This is a very high quality, hefty feeling controller. I really do like the paddles on the rear, however I do not use all 4 that were included. Also the charging case as the charging station is cool too.

    if you already have accessories from the normal Elite series 2 this is a great replacement to save a few bucks. However, I would not purchase if you don't have or are not planning to get the back buttons. While not that big of a deal I am slightly disappointed that the triggers and numbers don't have the same metal feel they had on the original series 2.

    Great controller to be able to switch from FPS settings to driver settings. I only run 2 of the paddles. and makes jumping and reloading much easier

    My thumbs used to hurt from clicking in the sticks when sprinting. I map L3 and R3 to paddles and my fingers are thanking me. I had the elite 1 and good grips pealed off. This one isn't supposed to have that problem.

    Great but bumpers break quickly.

    I love my elite controller and wouldn’t go back to regular one, but if you’re a heavy player I’d suggest getting warranty. The actual controller bumpers tend to break fairly quickly and I hope they build something more durable in the next gen. Also wished they add more colors/customization.
