Great upgrade from series 1

Elite 2
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The elite two is so much better then the first edition, i like the fact that rechargeable battery is already in the controller it self and that it has three different button mapping settings which you can change depending on what game you're playing

Better than the previous Series
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a gift for my son and it was very well received at that. I'm told there are several improvements over an already great controller. Watch the youtube unpacking that a couple of people posted and see all that it includes. Good stuff. RECOMMENDED!
I would recommend this to a friend Love the red!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Red is my favorite color, When this was on sale I had to buy it. I'm glad they make these without all the other accessories and cheaper because I already had a broken controller and didn't need all the extras!

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.He is in love with this controller, so glad I got it for him. Now he never wants to use a regular controller again. I like how it comes with the hard charging case and that you can change out the buttons. Pricey but worth it in the long run.

Quality problems
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
