    This remote does everything and more for an Xbox player. You can cutomize trigger sensitivity and save setting straight on the remote. If your an Xbox user this is a must high and I highly recommend it. Charging dock is an awsome add too.

    Great bang for your buck compared to a highly priced Scuf. Having the ability to remap the back paddles to any button is amazing. I play COD mainly and the only downside is the left thumb stick(L3) and RB doesn’t respond after constant use. Yes you can remap the back paddles to one of those two inputs. But I don’t think the wear should be as quick as it is.

    This elite controller is excellent! Love the color to match my gaming setup. The paddles and adjustable triggers from previous elite controller series are fully compatible with this series 2 controller.

    I always felt the Xbox controllers felt to be good quality, but the Elite controller takes it to the next level. This definitely feels like great build quality. The paddle shifters take a while to get used to, but once you do it really helps take your gaming to the next level.

    This controller is the best and worth the money. The extra for triggers underneath allow for more versatility in games controls. Only downside is the controller feels tiny in larger hands.

    It is a great controller, but for myself at full price it makes no sense. If you game a lot and want customizable features it is perfect.

    Good controller, but buy the extended warranty through best buy. It's worth the price, as I've gone through several elite series 2 controllers due some build quality issues.

    My 2nd faulty controller

    My original purchase was May 15, 2020. This will be my second time returning a controller in 2 years. This one I received after using my replacement warranty July 17, 2021. I purchased a 2 year warranty each time. It’s very upsetting because every time I have to return this faulty product I also have to purchase a warranty that’s going to cost me about $59 which is ridiculous. Each time it's issues with the controls. The first time, it kept drifting during gameplay. Now with this remote it's the left thumbstick that won't respond pressing up and if it does respond, it's very delayed. This is a $180 controller. I've never had to return a $60 controller. I keep giving them more money because I know I'll need a replacement. I would not recommend this unless you want to get stuck in a loop of continuous replacements and warranty purchases of $59 which is the cost of a regular controller which will last you years. It’s definitely not a one-time purchase item. I am very disappointed by this product because when it was working, it was great but it has less than a years use. It's just not made well--at least the ones I keep getting. Maybe it's just Best Buys stock, I don't know. But this is it. Last return, no more warranty purchases for me.

    I am moving on up in the gaming sector that is. I have not a clue what I’m doing gaming wise however I am very content giving myself the best opportunities to succeed or and find ease in learning new skills with sharp curves and decades beyond my current entry into gaming. I’m excited.

    Bought it as a gift to somebody & somehow the controller still had a small drift. Something I didn’t expect with such expensive controller. Past the return date so nothing I could’ve done anyways
