Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller, lots of customization available for mapping and trigger sensitivity. Has a built in rechargeable battery that seems to last forever. I can start gaming in the morning and 12 hours later it still says it’s at full. I also like that you can charge it in the case with either the usbc cable or the magnetic dock. Only time will tell how long the battery will last as it ages but so far it’s the best controller I have ever owned.

Pretty good, not great for price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing too special. If you have the money and really could use the additional buttons or customization, then you would appreciate all the features. I wish the rubber was a little more grippy. I haven't had any issues with mine and hoping I dont, but have heard of others having issues. I think for what you are getting, its a bit pricey.

HIGH QUALITY, GREAT FEEL, VERY CUSTOMIZABLE
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just hold this controller once and you’ll immediately feel it’s worth the money, truly. Everything from the grips, to the weight distribution, to the tactile experience of the buttons, triggers, and paddles, all feel absolutely premium. Regular Xbox one controllers will literally feel like junk in your hands from now on...sorry. Of course their are numerous ways to customize it. The brilliant magnet design allows attachments like the joysticks to come off like a dream yet stay firmly attached during aggressive use. The ability to literally dial in the joystick resistance, with the included tool, is just wonderful. I have even removed a joystick and changed the related tension mid-game it’s so easy! The different heights and designs of the joysticks all have real purpose and are genuinely appreciated in various scenarios. So is the changeable distance on the triggers...game changer. Then there’s the software. I have had many controllers that were customize-able with paddles (Think PDP etc). No software is more functional, efficient or effective than Microsoft’s own proprietary accessories app. Changes can be made easily, by almost any age group, and make gaming that much more immersive. Some say that owning this controller won’t make you better but it may make gaming more fun. I think they’re wrong. I think it does both. You ABSOLUTELY DO get a performance boost from higher quality instruments. Otherwise LeBron James would wear slides and Yo-yo Ma would play a washtub bass. Just get this thing so I can stop mixing metaphors- it’s expensive but you’re worth it...and so is this wonderful controller! Happy Gaming! Stay safe - Be kind

Yes. Just yes.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best controller that I’ve bought. I’ve had the normal PS4&5, Xbox one, Astro C40, Scuff, and even nycon controller. This blows them out of the water with the customizability and quality. I’ve seen reviews saying there’s stick drift after a while (I’ve had it for about a month so I cant speak on that) but I highly HIGHLY suggest this controller to anyone who’s serious about gaming.

High end xbox controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this is just sweet! very high end controller compared to the basic one or even the Elite from a few years ago. I love the grip and handle. the charger is well designed. it has four extra paddles in the back which I am sure someone knows how to program, but right now are preset.

Best controller out there!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used the Series 1 for many hours and loved it. This Series 2 is improved in every area. The grip feels slightly off at first, but after some use, it feels great and grippy. The rechargeable battery is great and it’s awesome that you can put the controller in its case to charge. The thumb stick options are better this time around as well as the paddles. Love that you can adjust tension of thumbsticks this time around.

Best Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Elite 2 controller is THE BEST controller EVER! The only negative is that it's some who have said it breaks down and some who haven't had any issues. So with that i'd say PLEASE if you get this controller. Please get the WARRANTY.

Xbox controller

5/5 would recommend for sweaty gamers!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the controller. It has a nice tight grip around, the controller is a little bigger than the normal controller which is nice because normal controllers are too small for my hands while this one, is the perfect size for me. The paddles on the back is so useful for when gaming

Elite. Expensive. Still worth it.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second elite controller. The first lasted almost 2 years before getting crushed in a suitcase, but it was perfect the entire time. Long battery life, great performance. Love the solid feel compared to the lighter stock controller.

The best controler ive ever used
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the feel and adjusability the customazation for button maping is super helpfull for those games you cant get the settinvs you whant and makes every game playable my only issue is that it has a tendency to divelop stick drift after a while but you can increase the dead zone in the settings to counter act that

Very Nice!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is well worth the money! With the customization funtion you can always change with your game style. Also the grip on the sides feels very comfortable. The best part is the charging case which charges your controller while also protecting it. Definitely would recommend!

Cool controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very neat controller, it is comfortable and has some pretty cool features like being able to decide if the trigger buttons are just click buttons or if you need to be able to feather it. Can also add paddle buttons to the back. My only gripe would be it does not come with atleast a set of paddles to add.

It's good, but you already knew that!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There's plenty of third-party accessories for this controller, so don't feel like you're missing out on anything and they can be had for less than buying the regular Elite controller. The only downside is that there's no way to easily replace it if there's stick drift. I wish it had Hall Effect joysticks or replaceable ones like another Edge controller for another company ;-), but that said, I still have the original Elite and it's working great and it's a few years old at this point. So I have no fear this will also pass the test of time!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best controller ive ever played with! It fits in the hands very nice. Holding the controller is incredible! And youll never run out of ways to set up this controller to make it your own! I just wish there were more colors.

Excellent customizable controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller so far has been the greatest experience with a controller I’ve had. The grip is outstanding, the customizability of it is extraordinary and the weight really gives it that premium controller feel. Definitely recommend this controller. I don’t think I have anything negative to say besides every now and then I have to clean the controller to clear up any dust, which is nothing, an easy cleanse every week or so and you’re set.
