    Seems like they develope stick drift after a year of use. If you get one treat it really well and make sure you get a warrenty. Best buy will charge a $30 fee when you replace them even if you are total tech customer so beware. I really like the controller besides the issues.

    Having an this as an option to purchasing the entire elite is cost effective for me since I have a full version model that suffers from stick drift and faulty button contact. Thus, my old paddles and other accessories fit perfect.

    I have for a long time been very displeased with XBOX controller that were manufactured by Microsoft. You ended up paying a premium price for a product that was anything but. They would malfunction after a marginal amount of time, and even physically break with little wear and tear. The Elite 2 is proving to be a step in the right direction. The premium build quality and vast amount of customizable features make for a very well made, and well conceived controller. USB-C or wireless charging by way of a docking station that is provided are great additions to improve the value. The down side is really the idea that it takes over $150 of a price tag for Microsoft o provide a quality controller option. But at least it's a pretty good one.

    Great for gamers. Lot’s of bells and whistles, but not for the average Joe. Takes a little time to get use to all the extra buttons. It’s very sensitive and quick.

    Nice upgrade to the original controller. the paddles are great and they are def missed when i have to use the original ones. build quality is great and although a bit expensive it's worth it. No drift of the sticks ... yet.

    Awesome controller, feels great and has the perfect weight. A little pricey but worth it. Comes with extra parts to fit your comfort and the added paddles makes customizing the controller a hit because of the locations.

    The controller weight feels amazing, the battery life is plentiful, and the finish is great. Been using non-stop and had zero issues. Its a wonderful replacement to the first elite which i still have and have been using for years. No complaints.

    The controller has an amazing feel to it. I really enjoy using this controller until I realized that the ABXY buttons need to be fully bottomed out to work. When playing a game like Rocket League you can find yourself needed to press a button twice to get it to work, but in a fast game like that it is already too late.
