    this is an amazing controller my only issue is the stick drift. I have bought two of these in a used/ newish condition and both has a left stick drift. there are ways to fix it on your own and if that the case this controller works great

    Best Controller I Have Ever Used

    This is the best controller I have ever played with! The buttons are very responsive, the ability to change sensitivity on that trigger buttons is amazing, and the paddle buttons on the back feel great. I mostly play Fortnite and I use the most sensitive setting for my right trigger and the middle sensitivity for my left trigger. It’s taking me a bit to switch to using my back buttons instead of using the buttons on the front, but I’ll get there with more practice! The looks are great as well, but my favorite part is the magnetic charging station. I just lay the controller back in its case and it immediately starts charging! I don’t have to move it around first to make it work either. 10/10 would recommend. If it was $30-40 cheaper, I think these would be flying off the shelves!

    Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2

    Bought this to play certain games on my PC, because all of the generic Xbox controllers I purchased usually break very easily (the spring-return breaks in the a-b-x-y buttons, or drift on the sticks etc) so why not buy a $200 controller? First thing I noticed was the controller weight, it's got some heft. Feels great in your hands especially with the rubberish grip material, I like the customization options and additional buttons, cross and joysticks. You can remove the paddles on the back or disable them with the middle button between the pause and option buttons. You can go wired (with included braided USB-C cable) or wireless via bluetooth. I dont like enabling bluetooth on my motherboard so i bought the official Xbox Wireless USB adapter, which works perfectly with Win 10 and this controller. The sticks can be swapped out for longer, or fatter ones (included) and you can swap out the disc for the traditional up-down-left-right cross (also included). The stick tension can be adjusted tighter or looser to your liking. I have owned this for one month (to the day) and have used it heavily playing mostly RDR2 PC (i game most of my free time) and so far it's held up very well. I've used it wired (no problems) and wireless (via USB adapter) with only a few dropped connections (the game pauses and says press any key to continue) no idea if it's radio (noise) interference or freak accidents with the USB adapter, but if you press the Xbox logo button it should reconnect in a few seconds with no issues. I charge fairly often after using wireless, and game multiple consecutive hours and so far the battery has not died on me during play. The only issue I have with this is the price. Again, it's a $200 (a little under $200) but I got the insurance because of the heavy gaming I do, and again, i paid almost $200 for this so... But it's a sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet controller hands down.

    Great FPS purchase, but the paddles on the back are worth it. The linger sticks youd want to use for precision aim. Be wary of your LB and RB, most elite controllers' bumpers can be built a little weak

    I like the interchangeable D-Pad and removable triggers, It took a while to get use to setting up the different profiles and programming them but over all I like it.

    Believe The Hype...Good & Bad

    If you're looking to up your game, this controller is for you...but make sure to get extended warranty, or if you're a TotalTech member you're covered. This is my 2nd one, because the good outweighs the bad. OK, the good - it's comfortable, nice weight, very customizable, back paddles easy to use and reach, it's wireless, long lasting battery and great case that can charge, and braided cable the not so good - on my first Elite II the rubberized grips began to unpeel after less than a year, but worse than that, after about 1 1/2 years the RB button began to not work that being said, after about 6 months of not using it, I shopped around for a replacement, the closest competitor was the Thrustmaster Eswap, but it's a wired controller and has 2 buttons on the backside instead of paddles and that tipped the balance in favor of the Elite II I especially recommend this if you are a TotalTech member, you can get it for $159 and if you have any reward points you can get this for close to $120

    I absolutely love the elite controllers. My first one lasted 8 years and i needed to replace it. The new elite is still the great quality with new features. I use it for xbox as well as my pc.

    Overall, the controller works well. The paddles and extra thumb sticks that are included are a nice plus. Setting the controller up is incredibly easy. The best feature is battery life. I have been using this controller for a year and even while playing 15-20 hours a week I’ll never have to charge it more than once a week. The controller can also be used wired while it’s charging, so you don’t even have down time between charges. The only reason for a 4 star rating versus a 5 is because of stick drift. After maybe 3 months of regular use, I started getting stuck drift in the right analog stick. It has a warranty, and Microsoft will fix it, but you have to send off the controller for who knows how long. For a $200 controller, stick drift should not be an issue. And if it happens outside of the warranty window, you’re stuck with it. Microsoft at the very least needs to sell new pots for the analog sticks that you can replace yourself. With that being said, you can counteract the stick drift by changing your dead zone settings. Overall I’m happy with my purchase and will probably buy another one whenever this one finally bites the dust.
