    This controller is so much better then the one that comes with the xbox. The feel the buttons the triggers, everything is more solid. The only complaint i have is when playing COD it was drifting bad so had to adjust the settings. Shouldn’t have to do that out of the box

    Cannot remap triggers on PC

    The controller itself is first class. I purchased it thinking that I could remap the triggers to be any keystroke that I wanted on the PC. Indeed, it is possible to do this, but you must purchase third party software at an additional cost to do it. The Xbox Accessories App only lets you remap the triggers to a button already present on the physical controller. I think this is a big oversight.

      Hi there,

      We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 for the most part. Unfortunately, when connected to a Windows 10 PC via Bluetooth, the Xbox Accessories App cannot detect the controller and won't allow for remapping. To get around this, we recommend using a wired USB-C cable or investing in a Xbox Wireless Adapter. For more information, please go here: https://support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/xbox-accessories-elite-series-2

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Xbox is a wash up

    Bought the white one first then a stick froze working the first 3 hours. Exchanged and paid more for this one and got stick drift on the right stick within a week. Typical Microsoft trash that promises a lot delivers very little. Built a bonfire with the Xbox (after 17 years of playing Xbox exclusively) and bought a PS5, won’t be back to Microsoft’s garbage they’re the inferior trash now and it’s not even close.

    Get the protection plan.This is always needed any time you purchase a new item. Saved you a lot in the long run. The cord breaks often.

    Horrible. Whatever store this came from saying it was in "excellent" condition needs help. Maybe because it had the original box, which looked like crap, and all the accessory pieces is why it was classed as it was; but, when a controller does fully operate, that is not excellent.
