    STAY AWAY!!! I am now sending in my FOURTH defective controller within a year. Bumper issues appeared after three months on the first two, then left stick stopped working on my third replacement. I received my NEXT replacement today and tested it, only to find that one of the paddles wasn’t working. Avoid at all costs. Just google Xbox Elite 2 lawsuit. It’s not a “small percentage” of controllers that are defective. Terrible build quality. I was charged $100 for a replacement only four months after original purchase. Since then, due to a class-action lawsuit, Microsoft has extended the warrantee and refunded those replacement costs, but they continue sending defective controllers. Could have been a great product, but the quality is garbage. The features and feel are amazing, until 2-4 months after you start using it, and a malfunction renders it useless. Buyer beware.

    Only downside is the joystick options. Wish there were two rounded ones instead of just one

    Good controller, buy the warranty just in case but the new manufacturing process seems to have fixed a lot of the issues.

    So many things you can do with this controller that makes it so much better than a regular controller but the stick drift is still there. Wouldn’t recommend long story short

    I didn’t think upgrading from a series 1 would make my gaming experience very different. I was wrong. This controller is the best.
