Works as expected...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the most part, feels like a normal controller. It would be nice if the cradle in the case could hold a charge to charge it on the go.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Bumpers

Great!

I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:A button, Button quality
Very disappointing.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As excited as I was to finally get an Xbox Elite controller, I have not ever been more disappointed by a controller in my life. This is the night I received it, and I am already having issues with it. The A button gets stuck so much, and this is a common issue as it appears in other reviews. Microsoft created a flawed controller that isn't worth half its price. The proof is in the reviews as consumers prefer the Fusion wired controller over this Elite series 2 controller. Even the regular stock controller feel more comfortable, and that's pretty sad to say as they are proven to be cheaply made. I will be looking forward to just convert to PC gaming.

||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Went from a Scuf to this! Feels so much more durable!
I would recommend this to a friend Returned. Not worth $200 for me. Maybe for pros.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only used it for 2 weeks. My left hand didn't like using all the paddles. I tried the extra thumbsticks but didn't have a use for them. I like how easy it is to hot map buttons (make the A button do what the X button does, for example) My favorite part of this controller is the hairpin trigger adjustment. Other than that... I didn't sit well knowing I paid $200 for a controller and I barely used all it's features. I went back to my regular red controller ☺ I'll leave this one for the pros.

I would recommend this to a friendWhite Xbox controller for PC
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Response on the controller is great and has some cool features you can use on different types of games your into. It has worked with my PC flawlessly. Bluetooth can be a problem after being hardwired into the PC But that can be fixed by just reconnect to Bluetooth and you should be fine. Havnt experienced any ingame interruptions.

Easy playing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Is my first Elite controller and I loved it. With all the features it has, and battery that last for a long time, I’m definitely having some good times playing with it.
I would recommend this to a friend Good controller
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Before this, I want to say that I bought my product as open box excellent condition. I rated 4 star because the controller came without the little covers for the trigger stops but everything works well. There is a bit of drift, but this might be because the joysticks are so loose that my character slightly moves when I shake my controller. Other than that, everything works perfectly as intended and is someone who should buy for the paddles to avoid the “claw” method of holding a controller.
