Great quality product, could include more.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price it's the quality you expect. I've had the elite series 2 controller for years and wanted a second one for my other Xbox. It was an easy choice to grab this one without the need for the complete bundle. My only complaint is that i feel it should include at least one pair of tabs for the back to give you a bit more customization. Understandably it is the "core" version, but if I'm buying the controller for this much, which has the same functionality of a standard controller out of box, i do feel it should include just those two extra items.

Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a BIG upgrade over the Elite Series 1 controller but doesn't fix all of the flaws. It warrants a five star review because it's the best gaming controller I've used (haven't tried the new PS5 controller yet).

Tension control
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the tension control adjustment. My old controller had button issues and the core was a great replacement and I just use my on hand parts.

Best controller on the market!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best controller on the market for any system! Hands down 1,000x better than standard Xbox controller and blows away the PS5 controller too. Thumbsticks have a perfect balance of smooth and tight. Buttons have a very satisfying n mechanical click. The variable triggers make it so easy to switch between a short travel for shooters and a long travel for racing or throttle based games

Warranty is awesome!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got xbox elite series 2 yesterday! Love the feel, the extra buttons, and mainly the warranty! I have had issues with thumbsticks / sensors wearing out in the past on regular xbox controllers, but Microsoft's warranty covers it with this controller!!!!! I am so happy and can not wait to really get grinding with this controller! I initially was going to purchase a Scuf, but after a great review I watched on Youtube.com (Scuf vs Elite series 2), I asked to cancel the order and asked for a refund and headed straight to Bestbuy. Even though Microsoft covers it for a year (and you can buy 2 additional years), i opted to by the warranty through the GeekSquad for 2 years, because they would replace it immediately (and i would not have to wait to send the controller in and wait for one to be sent back).
