Decent
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice feeling controller but does suffer from either stick drift or sticking buttons. Get the best buy warranty and every year or 2 and you can just get a new one for i think $50
I would recommend this to a friend Showstopper
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this controller. I’m not a hardcore gamer but nonetheless this controller is a far superior version of the one that comes with the console. Showstopper.
I would recommend this to a friendIt's was really good.... except
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After months of use I would say that was disappointing a little for the price. I only bought this when I had extra cash and wanted to test a "premium" controller. Control response time was really good, the case is good, alongside the ability to customize anything about the controller. However where it fails is the extra paddles of the controller and even if it's removable. It kinda leaves opening in the back of your controller. Leaving it exposed to dirt and oils from your hands. For people who grew up in the old Xbox era controllers the paddles get in the way more than an added benefit. Otherwise good controller but just a preference issue.

Great hardware, quality problems: buy the warranty
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, this is a fantastic controller to game on. The customizations, and weight / feel are as good as it gets. But the mechanical design is flawed. We bought three (2 elite, 1 elite 2). Elite thumb sticks have all failed, 2 we bought plus one replacement. elite 2 failed on right bumper, and left small Button by d pad.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love being able to customize and controls work well. Do not like that you have to buy additional package for paddles and customization. Returned one because of stick drift. This one has minor stick drift already. Works well with my Xbox Series X.

Elite series 2
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the FPS player ( war zone / cod ) Sticks have good accuracy smooth and tons of adjustments. Only issue is the biggest of them all !! Stick drift - elite series 2 , Microsoft charges 200+ and hasn’t resolved the issue, 2cd controller in 2 yrs - get the geek protective insurance

THEE BEST CONTROLLER ON THE MARKET
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had the elite series 1 controller since it came out, and I thought it was the best and it couldn't get any better, so I was skeptical about picking up the elite 2, but I was not disappointed!! Its a complete revamp and it feels even better in the hands, and with all the adjustable features, I'm sure you'll find a comfortable setting, I give this a 20 star rating out of ten stars
