Pricey but Worth it!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best controllers I’ve ever used. The ability to reconfigure your button mapping is amazing. If you have the money to waste on a gaming controller, this is the one to buy.
I would recommend this to a friendSolid controller
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s so much better than a regular control due to the weight mainly. It’s heavier than a regular remote which I really like. I don’t use most of the bells and whistles this thing has, but no more changing batteries was enough for me to shell out for this controller, everything else is gravy.

Must buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best controller I’ve used. Easy to set up and customize.
I would recommend this to a friendEhhh
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is pretty hard to use and it definitely isn’t for most people. If you have the money and feel like paddles would be best for you then I would definitely recommend. But, if you are more of a casual player I would say try looking for a cheaper controller.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPretty good
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My first elite controller. I do like the paddles and seems to help improve at shooters. Nice case and different attachments to fit what you like best.
I would recommend this to a friendLove that I can recharge it
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love not wasting batteries to play games and good quality
I would recommend this to a friendIt's exactly what they say it is: Elite
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product if you play a lot. The recharge feature alone was worth it for me. No more changing out batteries. Adjusting the hair triggers and fine tuning the sticks is a great asset in helping to get that slight edge in FPS. I Recommend the controller. Price is a bit high or I would have scored it higher.

BUY THE GEEK SQUAD COVERAGE
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent construction and pairs easily with my PC. I use this controller primarily for manual driving in racing games but serves perfectly fine for all types of games. The assignable paddles make customization an absolute breeze! **Warning** These have a tendency to fail in the first year so I recommend buying the Geek Squad coverage to protect your investment!

Xbox Elite Series 2 Controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The feel of the controller is quality. Being able to adjust stick tension has improved my gaming. The paddle shape and layout work for me, less accidental engagement under stress. Button mapping is sophisticated, easy, and accomplished on the Xbox. I’ve been using this controller for a couple months now and have had zero issues.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat controller, but flawed
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Such an amazing controller, but still flawed by design quality. Joystick magnets can get a little wonky, and I'm already noticing the grips starting to peel off after not much use. Still, don't regret my purchase at all. They will need to improve to complete with the PS5 controller though...

best controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.i would say best controller so far by date..bought 3 of these and would still buy this over any other competitors...handz down the best
I would recommend this to a friendSo close to amazing.
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing controller, perfect while it works and the best there is available. The warranty was extended from 45 days to 1 year from Microsoft. It’s a shame Microsoft used the potentiometers used in order Xbox, Nintendo and Xbox controllers that also have drift issues in these.

I would recommend this to a friendbest controller for pc
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Expensive, but the customization is nice, on windows download the app to get the full benefit of the controller, and get the adapter otherwise you need to stay wired, and really what's the point since it Microsoft finally put a rechargeable battery in their contollers
I would recommend this to a friendBest controller, hands down.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is without a doubt the best controller you can get on the market. Bluetooth makes it compatible with more than just Xbox, and the durability/quality is far and away so much better than the version 1 that it makes it look like a joke. Battery life is stellar so far and the added case with charging dock built in works very well. Wish the battery was removable, but 40 hours per charge is great.

Good but I like the Gen 1 controller better
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good controller but I had to return mine. The grip area is slippery compared to the first generation controller. I couldn't get use it it and felt weird in my hands. I did like the charging base it comes with and the fact that the tension on the sticks can be adjusted.

I would recommend this to a friendElite controller is great if you can afford it
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is awesome and I don’t even take advantage of half of the features it provides. It is very expensive though so I’m still waiting to see how well it holds up and for how long.
I would recommend this to a friendDitch stick drift!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Mad at myself for not getting a new controller sooner. Stick drift is gone! (still suck at the game but it's user not the hardware)
