Great controller at premium price

Works well at first.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the series one controller and had issues with 2 over time. When the series 2 was announced, I was ecstatic to be able to game with ease and with paddles, which I grew attached too. Months later, I started to experience controller drift in the left joystick, which is a horrible issue for practically every game. I hope Xbox puts better care in future products. TIP: if you buy, buy the warranty

Posted .Hi Thomas,
We're sorry that there's an issue with thumbstick drift on your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Every new Xbox controller also comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft so if it's still within the warranty period we recommend contacting Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution
Hope that helps,

Awesome
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A great controller in my opinion, and it comes with a good bit.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat improvement
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Big improvement over the series one as far as functionality. The hair trigger is much better the fact you can tighten the joy sticks to your liking is a added plus gives you better feed back. To me it doesn’t feel as sturdy as the series one though. The bumper buttons seem a little weaker. But the control feels slimmer which again in my opinion is better. Still think it is over priced but still a great controller if you want to spend the money
