    Great Design without Durability

    Tough to review as I love this product, but I also hate it as I'm on my third controller. Its a fantastic product for what its designed to do, but it's a terrible product because the quality is terrible. Bumpers and paddles break, usually sometime between 12-24 months. I would rarely suggest this, but if you buy this, make sure you get the 2-year Geek Squad coverage.

    You'll never want to go back to the original controller. It just feels and plays so much nicer. That being said, it's not perfect, it has randomly turned off on me about twice over 6 months (mid-game).

    Controller Only Works for 2-3 Months

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The controller itself is awesome, but it breaks super easily. I've bought 2 of these controllers this calendar year and both give out after like 2-3 months of regular use. RB/LB stop responding or respond multiple times for each press. The A/B/X/Y buttons stop responding. This controller is great for the first 2-3 months of use, but both of the controllers I have bought have broken down after a short period of time. If you are going to buy this controller, make sure you get the warranty so that you can return it when it does break down.

    It looked pretty on the shelf, so I bought it. I don't play the xbox that I have, but very occasionally someone does. So, eventually, this controller will get removed from the box and used. Maybe.

    Saw a bunch of reviews on this product and was worried about durability due to the Elite Series 1 controller being poorly built, however, this seems to be sturdy and put together well.

    The price may turn some off, but the Elite Series 2 is the best controller there is. I love the customization feature that lets you have separate game profiles. Compatibility with Xbox One, PC, and later Series X makes it a worthwhile investment.

    Disappointed that it did not come with the rear paddles, etc. Especially for the price. There is not that much of a difference in gameplay.

    Quality problems

    The quality is not too much better than the basic Xbox controller, and it is much heavier than the basic controller. The reason I buy it is for its four back paddles. I do not recommend it for its quality and current price if you do not need the back paddles. I have three of them, this is the third one. Two previous ones failed at some point in a year. One has a drift stick, and the other's stick does no click. Microsoft really needs to do better job for a more quality product.

    This is a great product in every way advertised. I really like the customization that you can do with this and the built in battery. You just have to make sure you can justify the additional money. For me it was worth it. For some it may not be.
