Nice upgrade over the standard controller.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice upgrade to the standard controller. I like how grippy it is and the paddles are nice to use. The only thing I miss is not having a share button on this controller. Maybe the series 3 will have it.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat build quality - "A" button sucks - DONOT BUY
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would give this controller 5 stars because when it works, it's phenomenal. It feels great, the sticks are solid, the quality of the materials is fantastic. HOWEVER, I swapped mine out three times because the "A" button doesn't register half the time. You have to press it a very precise way, directly center, for it to register, otherwise, nada. Playing games where you quickly need to jump like The Messenger are impossible to play on this. I don't know what the deal is but I've seen this problem with the "A" button all over the internet. I cannot recommend this as something THIS expensive should not have such a widespread and fundamental problem.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great purchase if you previusly owned an elite controller and you dont need to purchase the paddles and charging dock.
I would recommend this to a friendWould buy again
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent build quality and many many features. Real improvement on the first gen controller. 3 controller profiles are a real plus, and the paddles are no longer in the way. I would strongly recommend this to someone if they are some who play regularly.
I would recommend this to a friendA great valentines gift for him, he loved it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The color is nice and the matt black bottons are everything. Loves how comfortable it is in your hand and light.
I would recommend this to a friendFlawed but good.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of my favorite controllers. The thumbsticks eventually lose the tight feel and the right bumper will not consistently take inputs due to wear and tear. Despite the negative, I love this controller.
I would recommend this to a friendAmazing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its a nice working controller and has good weight to it, works perfectly no delay and fully adjustable.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Stick drift
Great deal
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have the original Elite 2 with the paddles, sticks, and charger, then this one is the perfect one to get. Works just like the original, but better price. The only beef is eventually you will get stick drift which sucks because all controllers get stick drift, but you pay more for this one. The controller settings allow you to mitigate the drift for a while, but eventually you will have to buy another, or do surgery on the controller.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty great controller. The adjustment in the joysticks is great and I've had zero problems with it unlike the previous generation elite controller. Also have found the controller to have zero stick walk unlike the cheaper Xbox controllers.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been waiting for this controller to be released and I was not disappointed. Minor improvements from the last generation but they were very welcomed. Microsoft should've incorporated a rechargeable battery years ago for their controllers but I guess they wanted the money from the battery companies.

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My husband is hard on controllers. This controller lasts for a long time! It’s the 2nd one we have bought but the first one lasted 3 years and a normal controller that comes with the Xbox lasts him about 6-8 months. He loves the buttons and being able to personalize it to what he wants

The Best Got Better
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After owning and using the original model quite a bit the update to the original Elite model is outstanding. Even down to the quality of the home button with the more tactile click shows the patience and enhancements in design.
