    Elite Series 2 Controller

    The first Xbox elite controller would get stick drift in under a month. This Elite series 2 controller lasted for 1 year and a couple months before getting stick drift! I highly recommend purchasing geek squad protection so when stick drift happens you can get a replacement. These controllers are usually not kept in stock in stores so you will have to place an order and wait for it to arrive. The price tag is high but I feel it’s worth it for this series of the elite controller.

    I love this thing. I never thought I would spend money like this on a a controller, but I had some xmas money to burn so I did it. This feels very sturdy and well-made. The added, removable, and programmable buttons on the trigger side have been great for games that have a lot of button pushing. This controller is customizable with magnetic thumb knobs on each side plus the directional pad. No regrets on this purchase.

    Ive worn out my Elite Series two, so i grabbed this and saced $50 on the stuff i had from the original. I love the white and black! These controllers are fantastic, but having had three, are prone to random failures. The most commkn for mer are the rear paddles with randomly stop working. Its bot the switch failing rather the plastic the the paddles hook into wears out and there anfle of the paddle is off enough it camt trigger the switch. I have to be clear, ive not worn or broke three previous controllers but have stick drift on one and the other the paddle problems. The third is fine, i just use it for another system. I do recommend this controller as there arent any out there thet beat it

    This controller is amazing in every way except 1. I would think that a $200 controller would last more than a year and a half before the sticks started drifting with no way to fix. I have original XBOX 360 controllers that I still use years and years later. Those cost $60 and still work perfectly, but this super expensive (and totally worth the price for how it works... when it works) controller needs to be replaced not even 2 years after purchase. I am a middle aged man who uses this probably a quarter of what a young kid would and it always gets stored in its cradle after use, and still.... have to replace it already. This is a problem I see hundreds of videos referencing too, so it is not isolated. I hope they fix it in future generations of controllers, because everything about it is truly Elite, except its life span.

    This controller is great. Just the feel of it is beyond words. The buttons are smooth and the paddles on the back are actually indescribable. The motion feels so smooth and the D Pad is perfect. The D Pad is why I bought this remote. I play Mortal Kombat and it’s so much smoother.

    Great choice of you want extra paddles for playing games, would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for stick drift within a few months depending on what you play and how often I'm sure. Fix that and it would be 5 stars for sure!

    Despite the drift you may or may not get with analog sensors; this is still the best pro controller you can use. Very premium feeling and thumbstick tension is great when you dial it in.

    Not as pricey as the full elite controller, but has the same great build quality and heft with the option to add accessories later. Feels good in the hand, can be customized with the app, and has an awesome color scheme. I love it!

    Best controller ever. I've used the series 1 and other normal controllers. These one is hands down amazing. Grip around the whole thing. Rechargeable battery that can dock inside the case with the charger coming in through the back. Adjustment tool to loosen or tighten the sticks. 1/4 pull on the triggers instead of a half pull. Whole thing feels sturdy with a nice weight to it. How many normal controllers have you purchased? 2 or 3? Could of bought this and definitely should. Stop buying crappy controllers.

    This is my third one. They are pretty solid at battery life and adjustable thumbsticks but it seems that the Lb and Rb tend to break easily

    So far, I can say I really enjoy this controller. It fixed many of the minor issues with the elite 1. The controller itself is the size of the average Xbox one controller. The grips feel natural and don't get in my way. The paddels, even though I don't use them, seem like they would be comfortable for someone who uses them. The battery lasts an incredible amount of time before it needs a charge, which can be charged in the case with the attached usb-c cable. Overall, I am happy I bought the elite 2, which is worth the money.
