Good upgrade from gen 1 elite controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have the gen 1 elite controller and everything working completely fine. Upgraded to see if any improvements were made and there definitely is. The trigger can be locked for shorter tension and their's 3 settings. Can create multiple settings for paddles behind controller. Love the charging dock can be charged in the case it came with. Battery life is long lasting and also thumbsticks tension can be adjusted which is good for FPS games. Also one big thing I recommend is customizing one of the paddles for SPRINT on the left thumbstick so you don't get drifting issues as I did with my elite gen 1 controller still going strong

Posted .Hi there,
Thank you for sharing what a good upgrade your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 has been for you. It's great to hear that you're a fan of its improved customization features and rechargeable battery. Setting one of the paddles to "sprint" in shooters and action games is an excellent suggestion, too! We hope you win a lot of online matches with it.
Happy gaming,
Chuck

Why did it take me so long??
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been gaming for 20 yrs....had the OG xbox all the way to Xbox X using the normal controller. The controller started sticking on the trigger and buttons, and I was getting more time on competitive Destiny 2 so I said "what the heck...let's bite the bullet and see". This Elite controller is cheating. Period. By all measures higher quality. You will have trouble getting used to the paddles, but keep on it. Enjoy playing competitive SIGNIFICANTLY more. Would/will buy again in the future, which I hope is a while away based on the build quality.

Definite quality upgrade from previous generation.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The devices charge speed over USB-C is very fast with a good power source. An edge up in game being able to utilize your extra fingers on the back of the controller. The magnetic quickly swappable joysticks, D-Pad and, Paddles are truly easy enough to do between games loading. A perfect controller for someone who travels between multiple Xbox’s too keep their muscle memory and settings consistent with on-controller profile select.

Amazinf
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was on the fence with this controller due to price and my inability to get used to the original elite controller with my short amount of time with it. Let me say, I have no regrets after 4 days with this one. The paddles are sized perfectly. Having large hands I had to grip my controller a bit differently in order to keep my hands from cramping, but the learning curve overall hasn’t been as bad as I’d imagined. I am significantly better at Apex legends now, and regularly make plays that I simply couldn’t with a normal controller. If you love gaming and take it even a little bit seriously, buy this controller, it is worth it.

Good controller. Still needs work.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good weight on the elite controller, very responsive. Nice grip on the back as well. Stick drift is still a issue which is u fortunate with a higher tier controller. Spring for the warranty if you can to save you down the line. Doesn't come with the paddles which I thought was strange.

Gamers would love this
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.10/10 recommend. The stock controller is fine but I was used to the ps4 rechargeable features built in. I bought the Xbox rechargeable batteries that just plug in to recharge but the battery life was not amazing. This controller has a longer battery life with better buttons and more features than I’ll use. Plus the color is fire.

Awesome Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I enjoy the ability to set up profiles for different games that you can swap between. Granted its only three slots but it is easy to swap them out within the app in the settings. Definitely recommend to a competitive gamer out there to give you an edge in the field.

Recommend
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.controller works amazing. Love the ability to change the most detailed setting and have 4 different setups for different games. Only down side I would say is for the price I wish it would hold up a little better. Buttons seems to wear down the same as a normal controller if not worse sometimes.
