    Great Controller, but sticks still drift

    Great controller. The rubberized grips feel good in your hands and it has a very well constructed, sturdy feel to it. The battery life is very long. The case and the charging cable are well built and a very nice touch. I like the fact that Microsoft gave you different sticks to swap out with convex and concave tops, depending on your particular preference, as well as one thumbstick that is taller than the others, for more precise and quicker movement. And that they are attached via magnet is very cool and works great. Then there are the underside paddles for your fingertips, which at first are difficult to get used to, but once you do, help out so much so that you dont have to lift your thumb off the right stick when crouching, interacting, reloading etc. Game changing. The only reason I dont give this controller 5 stars is because around 11 months after owning, both sticks now drift. Do yourself a favor and buy the extended warranty.

    Amazing controller. What a difference. The weight and balance is night and day compared to a stock controller. The ability to fine tune the tension of the toggles is amazing. Any serious gamer should own one.

    Definitely like that it has color. Needs better grip for big hands and maybe some more button for extra customization/Personel. Over all it’s good though.

    Excellent battery life, nice and smooth handling. My only complaint is that the the RB stopped working after about 7 months, luckily i had it under warranty and got a free replacement.

    Hardware - 5/5 Software - 3/5 Would have been an easy 5/5 overall but the software for windows pc is so lackluster. You have extra buttons on the back of the controller but you cant map them to anything other than standard controller buttons. Even on xbox you can make them open apps or toggle mic etc. Makes no sense they wouldnt expand that functionality on the pc with hot keys or mouse clicks etc. The whole reason i bought it was to use the back buttons for discord push to talk and mute/deafen buttons so when i play games using the controller i dont have to push a button on my keyboard while holding onto the controller. I did eventually get it to work but i had to buy a 3rd party app to do it because microsoft has limited the functionality of what could be super useful macro keys or programmable buttons. Quality is solid and the adustments to thumbsticks and triggers are well designed.

    Elite Series 2 is good but could be more durable

    Microsoft makes a good produce with this as the additional buttons on the back (the paddles) allows you more range of activities within games. the weight and the feel of this is very good. the only reason why I don't give this 5 stars is because as with the Elite Series 1, the Elite Series 2 ends up malfunctioning after heavy usage. I do not slam or throw my controller so I know it isn't from mishandling. with my current Elite Series 2, I've been using the Left and Right Bumpers a lot (with NFS Unbound) and the Right Bumper is not less responsive than it initially was. If Microsoft starts using more durable materials then it will be an easy 5 star rating.

    i cannot stress enough get the protection, rather the total plan or the one off 2 year protection plan. both this and the Sony elite controllers will break in less than three months, this is coming from a moderate player who only plays weekends and a little in the week. if you are a heavy gamer do not cheat yourself. in terms of the actual feel and features its amazing just built with no durability.

    Easy to Use and works amazing for FPS. I highly reccomend buying this especially if they don’t release an Elite 3 controller.

    Best control in my opinion. Love the added triggers on the back of the remote and being able to customize all buttons is really helpful and useful.

    It does what a controller is supposed to do control a game but wait it has extra buttons! Kidding it does the same thing as a cheapo that comes with your console and if you are sweaty enough to need the ability to adjust your joystick resistance or your trigger engagement/pull distance than this is 100% for you
