    Elite 2 controller is awesome. Doesn’t come with the paddles so if you don’t have those, you can’t use it to it’s full extent. It is definitely worth the purchase though

    Learning curve at first but once you get the hang of that it completely changes your game play for the better. You can make it so much easier and the different sticks hep more than I thought and how you can change the vibrations and sensitivity of the controller just amazed me. Would recommend for anyone

    My brother in law loves it, but it didn’t come with the customizable back bumpers like the black one. Be aware of that, as you have to buy them separately

    Great controller and when combined with the 2yr protection plan its an incredible value. Worry free gaming for years and with a top notch game pad. I do wish they would have kept it the same size as the series one though as it is easy to bump LB RB buttons.

    Xmas purchase for son in law as he had a corded controller. He plays on line and his old controller was not as fast as it could be as it was a couple of years old. He really loves his new cordless controller and he enjoys his games a lot more now.

    Its so premium in everyway. The look at feel of this controller is fantastic and the customizability options are nearly endless. I dont own an xbox and I have only been using it on PC and so far it has been working flawlessly.

    This Microsoft Xbox one x elite series 2 is much better than the original. The buttons are smooth. The triggers/paddles are on point. And programming is easy. The controller feels great in my hands making it easy to play for hours without hand fatigue. Want a great Xbox one experience, buy this controller.

    If you’re serious about shooters, you have to have a controller like this. Only issue is they wear down fast. Get the warranty

    Extra functionality does not compensate for bulk.

    The extra paddle functionality is a nice touch. Not the best in ergonomic design. It is a bit bulkier than what I prefer. A bit more stream lined design in the area of the finger-to-palm grip.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I was deciding on this controller or a scuff. Ultimately this won out for the price and personal preference on the location of the back paddles. I bought this controller to play COD and make use of the hair triggers and back paddles. Best decision I’ve made in a controller.
