    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.

      Hello Max,

      We're sorry there's an issue with the A button on your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. The limited manufacturer's warranty for this product has been extended to one year. If you're within the warranty period, we recommend contacting our team at Xbox Support for assistance here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

    For the price, it should be made more resistant. One drop and that’s it, the buttons get stuck.
