    This is my 5th Elite controller. They're very good for competitive players, but can easily use them for casual laid back gaming. Has plenty of customizations and sure is pretty to look at. I would recommend getting the Geeksquad Protection though, as the controllers tend to drift after a year of use.

    My elite controller was suffering from stick drift after about two years. I was able to exchange for a brand new one. Highly recommend Total Tech!

    Solid controller, weirdness with the warranty…

    I had bought a refurbished series 2 originally, geek squad refurbished. It was $99 dollars, and I bought the 2 year warranty. When I went to exchange it after mine had gotten pretty run down, I was told I would need to pay $100+ to get another. They tried to up sell me a brand new one, which I did not appreciate, nor did I see anything about that when I bought it. They ended up getting me an open box one so I only had to pay like $20, but they should really be more open about the warranties. They said they “didn’t have any” geek squad refurbished ones, even though that’s the store I bought the original from. If you offer a warranty on a product, then you should be able to replace the product if you have a warranty, no more, no less than the original. It’s a great controller, probably best on the market but there have always been stuck drift and button issues over time. Most button issues can be fixed by popping it open and hitting them with some rubbing alcohol, but the stick drift is tough. Best way to avoid getting it in the first place, is DO NOT use the sticks on the tightest setting. Keep them loose, and it will last way longer.

    Hopefully it has better longevity than V1

    I loved the V1 controller - except the rubber grips that separated, and not because of water, or sweat, or oil, or anything else, they simply separated due to poor construction. This one seems to have addressed that issue, the design is different for how the rubber is attached. As for the rest, I didn't use all four bottom paddles on the original, I didn't like their placement, but the new one I'm using all four happily, but I don't know if that's simply because I became more accustomed to bottom controls using a Razor wired controller, or because these are arranged differently. Control is spot on. Unlike the Razor, I absolutely love the buttons here, no mushy feeling like the Razors (I had both versions of the Razor with the buttons on the bottom, the 2 button and the four button one), they're crisp and sharp, you can feel the click and know it engaged. Sticks are great, the default tension was good for me so I didn't have to adjust that at all, but now you can if you like a looser or tighter feel. Only one taller stick is included, so if you want higher sticks for both, you'll have to buy another stick from some source. No issues with pairing, no issues with this not turning the Xbox on anytime. Battery life has been amazing, I can do day long stretches of Destiny for days in a row before I have to connect - and the USB C charging is way better, I can use my laptop's cable while I play if needed when it runs low as I'm using it. The included little charger base works well. I've always loved the Xbox One controller form factor, it's my favorite of all consoles (and yes, I have every one out there other than the PS4 pro). Nothing fits as naturally in my hand, and this is right there, that wonderful "Feels like it's part of your body" contours that make it comfortable for extended gaming sessions. Shoulder buttons and triggers are responsive and I almost never accidentally hit one of the shoulder buttons, so that's a bonus compared to the Razor... I like the adjustable trigger travel as well. My downsides - I'm not a fan of the grip. Yes, it's designed better than the first gen, and shouldn't come apart, but it's more plasticy, not as grippy, so I wish it was just a bit tackier to the touch. Second issue, I wish the batteries were replaceable at the user end. But all told, definitely a solid follow up on what was the perfect controller until it came apart.

    Nice controller, works with my PC well. The controls are solid and the synchronicity to my PC games across multiple Apps is great. Only negative is the longevity seems 1-2yrs max before need to replace.
