Microsoft did alot better on this one!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is a BIG improvement over the first gen Elite Controller!! The buttons are more heavy duty and it just feels better in the hands. I've owned quite a few Elite Series Controllers and have had to replace every one on a regular basis. Either the plug would go bad and the controller wouldnt charge, or the buttons underneath would quickly get nullified and didnt click like a button should. Ghosting was a big issue on the Elite Controller as well. The Elite Series 2 Controller has real button actuation and the ghosting is negligible. Those buttons underneath the controller are so much better than before and the cord input is also a big Improvement. I would recommend this controller over any other modded controller out. I actually have 2 of these controllers, one of which I have had for going on 3 months or so how and everything still works as it should.

Fantastic controller with one down side
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the elite v1 for a little over a year before moving to the v2. Overall, the v2 is a much higher quality controller than the v1 with only one downside when compared to the v1. The v1 used a membrane style for its button mechanisms in both the joysticks and the paddles, however the v2 uses more of a clicky button style mechanism. In the v1 the signal pulses consistently, however, in the v2, sometimes the signal stops pulsing which requires me to then reset the button by pressing it again, this behavior never happened to me when i uses the v1. That said, the membrane style in the v1 controller wore out very quickly. The v2 mechanism still feels brand new even though I’ve been playing with it daily since it was released. Finally, if i had to choose between the v1 and v2, given my post above i would still pick the v2 because of the build quality and durability.

Worth it
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Recently bought this controller due to my scuf having stick drift the amount of customization you can do with this controller is insane and it feels really good in hand with the textured handles and also comes with trigger stops , back buttons that you can make any button and other joysticks overall 9/10 if it didn’t get stick drift it would be a 10 definitely worth the money

The elite for a reason

Good stuff
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really love this controller, just beware that if you play a lot of games some of the buttons wear out. So it is best to get the warranty.

Great but bumpers break quickly.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my elite controller and wouldn’t go back to regular one, but if you’re a heavy player I’d suggest getting warranty. The actual controller bumpers tend to break fairly quickly and I hope they build something more durable in the next gen. Also wished they add more colors/customization.
