    Wonderfully dynamic controller with the ability to customize how the player wants. I have the Series 2 controller and this one is compatible with all of the accessories. Perfect addition to my gaming setup.

    Using this on my PC to play Warzone. I haven't purchased any back triggers, but the regular trigger lock, the feel of the controller, and the custom settings in the PC software make it already worth it.

    Had the first one and didnt like it but i love this one more than the regular controller even without the paddles the rechargeable battery is worth it. I got this on sale at 130 with total geeks squad protection. So in my opinion worth every cent.

    Excellent per usual. This is my third one and I really enjoy it for PC play and my xbox. I do wish they would come out with an elite version with mechanical triggers.

    This controller is pricey, but if you play a lot the cheaper controllers end up breaking. The charging dock is a great feature, and one that 1st gen elites didn’t have. They have also added paddles (4 total vs the 2 on the first gen). All in all a very solid feeling controller for the serious gamer.

    Overall, a really good controller. The grips are much better. The even smaller hair trigger is awesome, and I really love the tension adjustable sticks. Cons: The stick are slightly wobbly out the box. The controller seems to disconnect from the xbox every now and then for no reason.

      Hey there,

      It's great to hear that you're enjoying the improved grip and responsiveness of your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Random disconnects can occur for multiple reasons, including low battery and competing wireless devices. We recommend troubleshooting the problem with Xbox Support here: https://aka.ms/AA4w2z7

      Hope that helps,

    Theres really wrong with this controller but i would say still get that 2 years protection plan from best buy since it does drift over time. I havent gotten that issue yet but it could drift so get that 2 years.

    You guessed it, stick drift

    Upon unboxing, this controller feels and plays great. Solid build, great response, worth the money. But inevitably, after the warranty expires, stick drift creeps in. This is my 3rd elite controller, and every one of them got stick drift around the same time. Every time I assime after years they would engineer that out of the next model, but nope, its built in. I buy a lot of mid to high level electronics with no extended warranty, and this is the ONLY product I ever recall failing, and consistently at that. Idk how this is possible. My biggest issue is the warranty is only 90 days, when the standard in any electronics is 1 year. So Microsoft know they dont last. The price on these need to come down, or better yet, extend the warranty to a year. Im tired of getting ripped off on these controllers. Ironically, the generic plastic ones always seem to last longer.

    Amazing upgrade from the original Xbox controller. I love it! The paddles keep my thumbs on the sticks where they belong! The ability to adjust the trigger is amazing! Love the fact I can plug it into my PC and game with it on there too!
