I use this controller every day with no issues. Would recommend

Great controller with one year warranty. Son is extremely happy with this gift!

This is a marked improvement over the previous model but is still without its issues. Mainly it randomly disconnects from Bluetooth while playing any game on PC. There is no rhyme or reason that I can tell, but its been a know issue since launch. There doesn't seem to be any part of Microsoft that wants to acknowledge the issue either. I've been told by their support to buy the Xbox controller wireless adapter, which in my opinion is unacceptable. For a nearly $200 peripheral that has a wireless technology built in that should allow me to play, the fix should not be to buy another $30 part. Other than that the upgrades they did to this controller are far better than before. The controller grips are one piece now so it shouldn't separate and fall apart like the last one. Also the bumper design has been retooled so the broken bumpers shouldn't be an issue anymore. Hopefully the push a firmware fix for the connection issues soon because having the controller flake out during a game is very annoying.

I really wanted to like this controller but the design quality just hasn't been good as has all xbox controllers that has come out from the launch of Xbox One X/S to the current Series X/S. As a long time xbox user, you could tell right away the quality of controllers have diminished as soon as you hold one in your hand. I was really hoping the Elite Series would be different and I could justify paying the price tag. Unfortunately, I experienced similar problems as other reviews had stated not once but both times. On the original controller I purchased, the right trigger and Y button were unresponsive exactly %50 of the time. I brought it in and exchanged it for a new one. The second one seemed to be fine at first aside from the right bumper being unresponsive sometimes and the A button sticking every so often but after a month I started experiencing wireless connection issues. The middle xbox light on the controller would dim a little bit and disconnects from the xbox. Even though the controller is still powered on, the controller is completely unresponsive until the middle light is fully lit, which takes about 15-25 seconds each time. It only happened sporadically at first but now it'll keep happening unless I have the controller plugged in. Of course now it's past the return date and Microsoft stores are now non-existent so I can't go anywhere to exchange it again. I could go through the online warranty process but would likely receive another used/refurbished item in return. But at this point I don't know if I would even want another one.

I was a little disappointed by the purchase of this elite controller. It did not come with the paddles that are supposed to come with the elite controller. I have also had it just over a month now, and one of the joysticks is already sticking. I do not eat or anything while playing, and never spilled anything on it to cause this issue. It is still so clean it could be sold as brand new, so I’m frustrated by this problem.

Awesome controller! So much better than buying batteries every couple weeks.

If you play on an xbox get this. That's really it. This controller is the best.

My husband loves his controller he has the first one that came out to he wanted to upgrade.

The new design is a huge upgrade. Extra adjustments and a new grip! Definitely worth a cop.

I love the remote battery life is amazing no more spare batteries

Good controller definitely worth getting especially for fps

Microsoft -Xbox Elie Wireless Controller Series 2 A complaint is it hits them together the trigger stop on each side fell off which is a weird thing it's happen for such a high priced item. Yes, you can even play and charge at the same time. The first series did have some issues. From wearing out thumb sticks to sprint/melee buttons

great product,can tell the difference when using elite vs regular

IMO, these controllers are a game changer. I set the paddles in the back to correspond with the A, B, X, Y buttons, so I never have to use my right thumb for those buttons. And you can custom map all the buttons on the controller, and save them as a profile to load into the 3 slots for quick change outs. It's nice for those games that only give you preset control options.

Great product been using for a month and its been the best controller i have ever used great response and mutil response curve setup so u can switch you response curve to the game you are or currently playing

This controller is super awesome. It paired easily with my computer and my Xbox Series X. I love the look and design. The magnetic replaceable buttons are very cool. The only downside is the "grip" texture on it isn't very grippy. Luckily I found a company called Lizard Skins that makes a grip that will go over it that makes this controller feel amazing.

It works really good my play style got better with the paddles

The best controller, period. Can never go wrong with this controller.

Amazing purchase! Especially, with next generation consoles right around the corner.

This controller is great for competitive gamers and I really enjoyed the extra weight to it.
