||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product and it comes with many benefits. Try it
I would recommend this to a friend Get it!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its what you need. If you need a reliable simple and comfortable controller this is it. Officially licensed and backed by a big company, anything goes wrong(which it does it being heavily abused during online gameplay) then you have xbox 1 year warranty. Feels nice in the hands. Also has rechargeable batteries the way it should.

The Elite 2 controller is good, but flaws remain.
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Elite 2 controller be the greatest XBox controller ever, but it suffers from the same flaws and weaknesses as it predecessor. The sticks mechanisms break down to wear and tear gaming within six months of use. Eventually the push down click on the stick intermittently stops functioning and you're screwed if the click is a vital action in a game, like sprinting or running. Creep is starting to rear it's ugly head in the same stick. And just this week one of the bumpers began intermittently stopping function or it's sticking. All of these issues should've been corrected with the Elite 2. But instead of upgrading the quality and durability of what really matters most they put more R&D into the exterior cosmetics, which I like. It's actually feels really good in your hands. I LIKE IT, but I want to love the Elite 2. It's just not what a Gen 2 premium controller that demands $30 over Gen 1, but doesn't deliver in the wear and tear department. Will I buy another, of course. And this time I'll buy the freakin' insurance. It was a Gen 2, I thought I would be better.

Works as expected
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the core model so it does not include the paddles on the back, they will need to be bought seperately. But for what i got it for, it works great and ill pick up the paddles another day.

Nice quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this controller to play on my pc because I’m no use to play on keyboard. I would say this controller is a much better than the Scuf controller on quality. I have been using this controller and both thumbs switch hasn’t tear like the scuff. One cons is that price/value have to be lower down a little. After all I’m amazed playing on pc with this controller.

Great controller but overpriced
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Battery lasts a long time but I think controller is overpriced.
I would recommend this to a friend Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller. I bought this for my shooting games Call of Duty and Destiny. I would recommend configuring the controller through the Xbox accessories tab whenever you make adjustments on the controller itself.

I would recommend this to a friend Best remote I ever used
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.History of remotes I've used: Razor wolverine ultimate Razor wolverine Xbox elite 1 Various standard xbox remotes The Elite 2 far surpasses all of these remote with its customizable triggers and analog sticks. The new and improved paddles on the back make for better ergonomic handling while they are attached. The improved bumpers are a great step up from the elite 1 which I have broke in more than one occasion just from wear n tear. Buy and enjoy!

This is the perfect controller for any Xbox users
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm wearing this review of somebody that has disabilities in their hand, and I have to say this is one of the most comfortable and versatile controllers I own. They have become a daily driver not only in the game on the Xbox but also on my gaming PC.
