Kid friendly...Dad approved
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tired of running out of batteries or swapping batteries in the midst of a game, this is the controller for you, or the kids, or that someone you love. On a full charge you can get several hours of gameplay and it proves as a great alternative if you dont want to go for the elite 2. I recommend this purchase

Almost Perfect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While its a great controller it does have its problems. Mine worked great for literally 31 days and the right trigger started creaking when in hair trigger mode. Wasn't necessarily a big deal because it still worked BUT being the controller is 225 after tax and almost 300 with warranty (which yes, you should absolutely buy as I have it) youd expect some rigid materials that can stand the test of time and practical use. 4 out of 5 for me. If youre lucky and get a model thats perfect, its the best controller on the planet. Hands down. With geek squad protection you can just get it swapped out and continue trucking.

Solid feel, rechargable, pretentiously expensive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feels like about 100 dollars worth of controller for the low low price of 200 dollars. Honestly it has some neat features, the typical things found on previous iterations of elite and scuf controllers but with added things like 3 quick change profiles, adjustable stick tension and a very long lasting recharablge battery pack that recharges when placed back inside its case. I'll be eager to see if my favorite microsoft controller feature will make a triumphant return on the elite version 2....stick drift, it's been missing so far, but its not outside its factory warranty period...so there's still time.

Best Controller for Xbox
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Look this thing isn’t cheap. If you’re a pro-level gamer, get it. Likes nice things, get it. Likes to have more options than you know what to do with it, get it. If none of that applies to you, don’t get it. The regular controller more than fits the bill for most gamers. Here’s a quick Pros/Cons list. Pros: -Incredible battery life -More customization features than the Series 1 Elite controller -Feels well built, great quality feeling -Built in dock-to-charge feature with charge enabled case Cons: -Pricey $$ -Slight learning curve with the new features, more so if this is your experience with this type of controller -Mostly likely you will never share this controller with anyone else lol

Great for gaming. Hard on the wallet for repairs.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you're an fps player, back paddles are sure to elevate your gameplay. The controller feels good in the hand, has good connection, and comes with more attachments than you'll need. Get two so one can be in the shop, because they have several known issues like bumper sensors dying and stick drift. Even with that, I still don't want to go back to regular controllers.

Elite controller 2
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a fantastic controller. I recently upgraded from having the base controllers and I am very happy with the built in battery that keeps me from either blowing through batteries or buying a battery pack and forgetting to charge the batteries. The controller feels very solid and well made in hand and the textured grip is awesome for when I get Sweaty hands

Solid Offering from Microsoft
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The “pro” gamer setup of the controller - the paddles under the controller, swappable joysticks, adjustable triggers contribute to the solid feel of this controller. It has the feel of a premium controller, and rightfully so, considering the price tag attached to the Elite 2. Honestly, this controller isn’t for everyone; if you’re a casual gamer, you can probably save the money. If you’re an avid gamer, and one who plays a lot of first person shooters, give this controller a serious look. And if you have the disposable income - don’t hesitate to pick this controller up. Me personally - I like this controller so much, I’m considering picking another one up as a reserve controller.

Best paddle Controller on the Market!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.better controller than a scuf. the padding for your hands keeps it from getting sweaty from food grease if you eat and play and its alot more durable and last a lot longer than scuf controllers. scuf controllers break so easy. ive had 3 scufs in 3 years and only 1 xbox elite series 2 controller for 2 years with no issues and the back paddles are easily replaceable for like 10 bucks on amazon

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this controller. Surprised how good the battery life is, bought this on release day and have only had to charge it 3 times after using it for a bit more than a month now. There have been some complaints that some of these controllers are a bit defective, so just in case I put warranty on this. The one I bought seems to be fine though, the only slight thing is if I press the A button on the edge it may not register. If I press the A button in the center though it tends to always work. I just recommend testing the controller using some sort of program and see if it works. The controller overall feels of a very nice build quality, I feel it is more comfortable than the xbox one S controller and don't really ever have hand fatigue after playing for a long time.

Microsoft is elite
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Life changing. Put off getting the elite controller for a few years. Finally done it and no regrets. However if you have bigger hands like I do, I find it’s difficult to play with all 4 back panel triggers. I only play with 2.

Great controller for the competitive gamer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love all the features of this controller, feels solid and of good quality. Some people complain about the weight but it makes it feel premium to me. I suggest get the the geek squad protection since I feel like no controller is safe from the eventual stick drift or a button messing up.
