- Cons mentioned:Button quality, Stick drift
Three in one day...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Elite Series 1 started to drift heavily, so I decided it was time for an upgrade. Ordered one of these online from Best Buy's site as I couldn't find one near me. Waited for the controller to be shipped, and I got caught up on a lot of the issues surrounding these controllers. To date, I've had multiple Xbox One controllers along with three Elite controllers. I've had a lot of issues with stick drift with the XOne controllers. As for the Elite controllers, I sold my first one that had a loose left stick I was able to fix. The second one was faulty out of the box, and the third had stick drift. I received the Elite 2 on Friday. Tested the controller and played with it a bit. The A button was not registering and would occasionally stick. Returned it today (Saturday). Came home and tested it. Looked fine, but it wasn't a thorough test. Found out while I was playing Apex that the A button wouldn't register if I pressed it in quick succession. Returned that and got my third Elite 2. Came home and tested it -- A button is not working. There's a dead spot if I press the button from the left side. I didn't think I'd go through three controllers in one day, but it looks like I'll be returning this one in the morning and playing with one of my Xbox One controllers in the meantime. I had hoped to be one of the "many" who didn't experience the vast number of issues with these controllers, but I guess I'm one of the "few."
