Great
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although we had to return this (button input was lagging on the PC), it feels very good in hand. We also have an PS5 elite controller and using this one in comparison, it's a little heavier but still has amazing grip and the satisfying buttons. Connecting to PC via cord or Bluetooth was easy.

Same issues
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The bumpers wear out annoyingly easily long time weakness of the elite controllers you'd think they would have fixed by now.

Best Controller Out, Beware Of Issue
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the beat controller across all consoles. Even better than Scuf in my opinion, although I know this was made in partnership with Scuf. The app on Xbox makes it a lot easier than manually setting the paddles. Recommended an extended warranty. This is my second elite series 2. I bought the first one Nov 2019 upon release, experienced left thumbstick drift after 4 months, only a 90 day warranty. Paid $100 to have Microsoft fix and bought a new one with the extended warranty, because playing Cod with a regular controller doesn’t feel right anymore.

So far so good.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the customization. Lots customization. Only thing I hate on this is the price. Hoping it last longer than the original since that started to have left joystick “stick-drift”. Wish the battery was removable. Feel like MS did the whole recharge battery thing knowing that rechargeables only last so long. Meaning more money for MS if it’s time to replace because of a battery death. We shall see what dies first: the joystick or the battery

Great audio gets better mic
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The previous gen was great and had clearly defined audio for all scenarios. The mic was a little lacking when compared to other headsets. Come gen 2 and they take the formula and tweak it just enough to give you the great audio with a great mic. Do keep in mind that it does have a removable foam filter on it in case that bothers you.

Great Feel, Terrible Functionality
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After owning the elite series 1 controller for 4 years, I decided to give this controller a shot. Its clear to me that Microsoft has since stopped caring about product quality and placed the emphasis on marketing. I was initially impressed by the build quality of this product (it feels very high quality and well built in the hands), but actually using the controller is another story. Right out of the box, the Y button would consistently not register my button presses. This basically made the controller unusable as I need that button for the games I play. I thought I had got a defective controller, so I returned it for another one. To my surprise, the second controller not only had the same issue, but was also doing it on the A button. This product is straight up unusable, no matter how good it looks or feels. It’s sad that paying more than double the price of a regular controller, only gets you a nice paper weight. I cannot recommend this product to anyone. I returned the second controller and got the Razer Wolverine, which has exceeded my expectations.

No need to purchase more controllers
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent controller. I enjoy the feel and the ability to map the back buttons. Other in the house also have different button mappings that are easily controlled directly from the controller. I have not experienced any drift and the RB/LB buttons haven't failed me like the E1

Pricey, but a great controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is great. Seems like there were some quality issues with the first series elite controller but this one appears to have better quality. Had it for a couple of months now and showing very little signs of wear. Being able to switch out the sticks is what I like the most about it. The added paddle buttons help, but be aware that they don’t act as extra buttons. They only replace current buttons or can act as a shift button.
