    Since launch, I have returned 7+ controllers due to RB double/triple clicking, A,Y face buttons not registering when pressed, and MAJOR stick drift. Microsoft's quality control for the elite controllers (series 1+2) is non existent. Ive wasted hundreds of dollars purchasing the best buy warranty with every exchange bc i KNOW the issue(s) i mentioned above will be there. Ive now purchased the geek squad package to try to save money. I honestly dont even know what to suggest to those who read this bc i need those paddles now but literally every single controller ive recieved has been defective in a major way..

    At first I was afraid to buy it because ive read reviews prior to buying it about how there was controller drift. However I received the controller yesterday there was absolutely no drift. For the joysticks, it may take some time to get used to because the grips are so strong and if you have been using a normal controller for about 5 months prior to buying this, it may take a few days to get used to. Make sure to keep the tension in the middle or the beginning if you play fortnite and also make sure to watch youtube videos on the controller before you buy this.

      Hey Pani,

      Thank you for sharing your experience with your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. We're confident that once you've had a chance to get used to its grip and features, it may be difficult to go back to a standard controller. Your suggestions are excellent, too. We hope you win a lot of online matches with it.

      Happy gaming,
