Great to Replace an old Elite Series 2 controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is perfect for anyone who already has an elite series 2 controller and is looking to replace their old one. You can use the old attachments on this new one and and it feels literally the same. So far no issue and price is fair compared to the normal elite series 2 controller.

Meh
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller features is a FIVE STAR. the extra features are great, the four paddles, extra joysticks, tunable resistance on the joysticks. i've been using nothing but an elite 2 for the past few years. The downside, and it's a major one, is the controller durability. Since 2020 I've exchanged controllers about 8 times. I play a lot of warzone and the bumper buttons (LB, RB) are always the first buttons to start losing responsiveness. Usually one joystick will get stick drift, sometimes bothe will get it. Depending on how much you game, buy the $60, 2 year waranty.

Love the customization
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this skeptically at first but have since loved using it. I love the extra weight, it makes the controller feel much more substantial in the hand. Following that, the customization with the extra buttons and joysticks unlock some cool stuff in games.

Great controller.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller. Because of the button mapping and paddles I was able to greatly improve response times in some games. Played numerous house and very very very minimal stick drift. The elite series controller are always my go to. Some say it’s a little heavy but to me I like the weight and doesn’t seem cheap.

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.

You NEED this if you are a gamer playing Xbox
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Elite Series 2 Review
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller with wonderful battery life. Ergonomic grip is much better than the base controller. Wish this one came with the kit like the original elite controllers did.

I mean its a controller
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you need a top of the like controller this MIGHT be it. Its good sturdy, long battery, and feels good but it can tend to get stick drift not in the normal way but that the sticks work so well that the slightest touch and youll keep drifting when having your finger rest on it

Great follow up to the fist one.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is without a doubt a better feeling design then the first Elite controller. It has 3 positions for controller config potions, and the grips on the handles have a softer bump fell to them. The paddles on the bottom also feel better, a little more tucked in and out of the way. Also love the blacked out look of the controller. Just hope that the right and left bumper do better then the first Elite controller, Had to get mine fixed/replaced twice because they failed to work.

Elite 2
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this controller & i love the warranty that best buy offers for it. I only give 4 stars because of little things ive noticed. They do eventually get stick drift but again warranty, & then theres the issue ive had with 3 in a row of the rubber grip starts to peel up after a little while. Another personal gripe is i have big hands & it wouod be nice if the spacing for the paddles was better. It is very difficult to use all 4 with larger hands. Atleast in my experience.

Great while it lasts. Dreaded stick drift!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Drift
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely loved everything about this controller. Weight feels great in hands, super comfortable, and customizable buttons/sticks to suit your preferences. I owned this controller for 2 months, when suddenly the sticks started drifting. I didn’t drop it, I keep good care of it, but this still happened. I should have done my research. 2 months for almost $200 just doesn’t cut it. Stick to the cheap ones, at least you expect them to be junk.

Good Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very good controller. I only give it 3 stars because the A button doesn't work correctly. I can take 2-3 times of pressing it in order for it to work. It was that way straight out of the box. The controller is still overpriced. However, this controller is far superior to the basic Xbox controllers.

Best Controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is by far the best one. I have a Series 1 and I like it but, the grip portion will come off. But so far I have been using and making the Joy Stick adjustment and it is awesome and you feel and see the difference on the accuracy of the movement. I like the fact that I can charge it and use it for 40 hrs, I haven’t tested it the 40 hrs, but I like being connected when I play FPS.The back paddles feel better at their current location, better than the series 1. Let see after time how this controller operates.

One of the best multifunctional controllers.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller!! but for the price... this controller feels expensive. Great quality materials and funtionality. I love the interchangable thumb sticks that are magnetic. Great response feel. The thumbstick tightness adjustments are great for those percision shots in fps or 3rd person. The buttons and triggers work and feel great. The adjustable triggers are a great component fpr different genre of games. The charger design is amazing with the in case or oit of case ability to plug in. The D pads are great. Im not a fan of the circular D-pad but i changed it out for the cross and it works great. Im glad all these components came in the purchase. Bluetooth works great on PC, android, xbox, but you need a 3rd party connection for ps4. Could not get to work with ps5. The only downside i have with it is it does not have gyroscope capabilities. A niche complaint for those obscure games. All around one of the best controllers I've ever owned.

Great product!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!
