Another controller turned into a paperweight.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased Nov 22, now it's Aug 18th at the time of writing this. Less than a year of ownership the RB button is now failing, it doesn't register a button press about 70-80% of the time I press the button. Previous Elite Series 2 controllers had these issues, however, I gave the benefit of the doubt when buying the "core series" hoping that they'd fixed this KNOWN issue, they didn't. Sadly, now this is my second almost paperweight Elite Series 2 controller with a broken/dying RB button. For the price of these controllers you'd think they have a highly build quality, they don't sadly. For those seeking a controller but play games that heavily use the shoulder buttons (RB/LB) don't waste your money on the Elite series, just buy the normal controllers. Now I resort to using one of the backpaddles to function as my broken RB button.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Not quite the best
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These controllers are cool in theory but in performance I think this will be the last one i buy. I have had 3 of these in 4 years, each on having a different issue. The paddles work great on each one for 2-3 months. One of them had a headset jack issue where everytime someone talked to me, they heard themself echo in my headset, if i changed controllers the echo would stop. And my very first one of these the lb bumper wore out after 2-3 months.

Good until not
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked well while it lasted. I only play rocket league on pc with this controller and legitimately I’ve always taken care of my stuff but these controllers break probably within a year on average for most. My thumb sticks are the only reason I’m now on my 4th controller and it’s out of hand. But while it works it’s great!

MY BABY!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is a sculpted masterpiece! I loved the first gen controller and they went and upgraded it. This thing is incredible. I’m annoyed off though. One of my family members (I’m pretty sure) three away my d-pad and since Microsoft doesn’t make replacement parts I’m going to have to but from a sketchy third party and hope it all works properly.
