I love these controllers.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My thumbs used to hurt from clicking in the sticks when sprinting. I map L3 and R3 to paddles and my fingers are thanking me. I had the elite 1 and good grips pealed off. This one isn't supposed to have that problem.

Okay, but needs improvements
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller overall and has less issues than my other Elite controller, but I’m still going to have to give a 3 star due to the fact that this controller also has some buttons that don’t work all the time and occasionally disconnects from the Xbox for no reason…

Spectacular Controller
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently switched over to Xbox and this is by far the best gaming controller I've ever used. It's hard for me to play with any other controller once I used this. Completely worth the money!

Almost Perfect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While its a great controller it does have its problems. Mine worked great for literally 31 days and the right trigger started creaking when in hair trigger mode. Wasn't necessarily a big deal because it still worked BUT being the controller is 225 after tax and almost 300 with warranty (which yes, you should absolutely buy as I have it) youd expect some rigid materials that can stand the test of time and practical use. 4 out of 5 for me. If youre lucky and get a model thats perfect, its the best controller on the planet. Hands down. With geek squad protection you can just get it swapped out and continue trucking.

Great controller!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very solid and premium feel. With the long battery and solid build quality I could not find any faults. Probably hard to justify the price but as far as controllers go I am not sure there is any better out there currently.

Xbox Elite 2 with the Xbox Series X honest review
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller offers everything you need for the Xbox Series X. This is an official Microsoft controller so you don't have to worry about it getting blocked from the console. I have purchased other Xbox Series X controllers and the build quality is quite different. You can feel the weight of this controller and tell it is not a 3rd party plastic knockoff. I highly recommend this controller.

Needs recalled
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So many people have tried this controller and keep having to replace it for stick drift, a button not tegistering and bumpers not working like they should. Its a well known and documented issue and im on my 5th one now. Definitely get the protection plan because it covers these issues and can be swapped out in store!
