Good quality but expect some stick drift on day 1
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is better than a regular Playstation or Xbox controller. I've also used Scuf. The paddles feel better than any I've used. The overall value of this controller is great - the ability to remap any button is huge, along with setting up multiple profiles for a few different games. A lot of custom controller manufacturers don't have their own software to do this and won't let you remap on the fly. Also, the ability to adjust the tension in the thumbsticks is amazing! In the hands it's comfortable, feels like quality (not cheap plastic), and looks clean. Expect a little bit of stick drift on day one. Mine was actually so bad I replaced it a week later and got one that wasn't as bad, but still has some drift.

No more stick drift!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice controller and a great value compared to standers controller. I was experiencing a lot of stick drift with standard controller and so far this has proven to be more durable and the battery last a long time.

Nearly Perfect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is pretty fantastic, and a remarkable upgrade in a few ways from the previous version. It has better paddles that are a little snappier, so you wont accidentally depress them in the heat of the moment of gameplay. It has better sticks with a bit more control to them. And it has the ability to charge on a little stand that comes with it, which is super nice to have. The part that has bothered me are the AXBY buttons. I have gotten three of these thus far since I decided to purchase them through Best Buy, and the Y button specifically, on all of them, has to be depressed at exactly the right angle in order for it to connect and follow through with the input. Apparently, this is just a quirk of these controllers, which for the amount of money you spend on them, is really unacceptable. I believe this can be fixed but it requires you to pull off the front face of the controller, and I'm not ready to do that yet. Just know that this has a potential issue with the buttons.

Attention to detail and high level customization
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So many teviews pointing at the quality of the controller and I wont reapeat it, agreed. I have been using the elite series 1 and never did i though it was missing features, it has been great and zero issue (use adapter for playin with it on ps4 and switch whick makes gaming super enjoyable in every console). Then got the elite series 2 and was floored ny how much everything was improved. One detail I want to mention is the hair triggers function. In previous elite shortening the rhow of the trigger will make it by default that the maximum balues could not be reach (full trigger pull values) without adjusting in the software customization. Not a big deal nor a problem since all it takes is a quick adjustment in the trigger tab for customization. In the elite series 2 they made it so that when changing the total pull for the trigger (three option total), each option when changed automatically adjusts the reading from the trigger so that one gets full press galues even at the shortest throw. This is incredible attention to detail becuase it was absolutely acceptable to let the user go into the setting and adjsut it, but they decided to go the extar mile and make it happen on the fly. In short, is an epic controller for an epic console (Xbox X) and the upcoming new Xbox. Once you have you wont look back and because this controllers usually last a long time you will get your moneys worth.

Very good controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first thing I noticed is the ruber grips are better designed, it appears they may have fixed the issue that the series 1 controller had with the rubber grips beginning to peel off after a few months. The extra third slot for saving custom controller configurations is nice and the back pedals are now shorter which makes it feel more comfortable in your hand. With the series one controller I always had to take those paddles out if I weren't using them because they would prevent me from gripping the controller the way that felt comfortable for me. The adjustable tensioner for the thumbsticks is nice as well, and the battery does last a decent amount of time before it has to be recharged. The only downside is the fact that the battery pack is built in and cannot be removed. Overall the quality seems to be much better and it has a USB-C charging connector which is better than the old USB-B that the series 1 controller used, which you had to be very careful when connecting the cable; it could only connect one way and made it feel like if you weren't careful you might damage the connector. So far I am very pleased with my purchase.

Great except for the bumper buttons
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had three of these now and each one has had the RB button fail. I love the weight and feel of the controller but I can’t say it’s worth the price with this major flaw.

Great Controller

Love the weight behind it and the way the joy sticks and paddles feel. I also like being able to adjust the trigger distance when playing first person shooters.
