    For the amount of options and things you can do with this controller, I personally enjoy it compared to the typical regular Xbox controller a person can get. Me personally however, I waited for when there was a sale going on for Best Buy, or if there was an open box version available

    I liked this controller but it eventually got stick drift in less than a year. I think in general this is a huge problem for Xbox controllers. I think every controller I’ve had from Xbox has gotten stick drift whereas PlayStation controllers, I’ve had no problems. I just don’t think it’s worth pay around 100$ for a controller that eventually get stick drift when I could buy a 60$ and save money.

    This controller is everything you want in 2020. The only thing I will say is get the insurance. I'm very gentle with all my devices (especially controllers- considering how fragile they tend to be). Alot of my friends have been experiencing knob drifting, and other little things malfunctioning.... Long story short, excellent controller, but that insurance will SAVE YOUR POCKETS in the long run. *My left stick is starting to feel a little lose after about a month or so of having it.

      Hey there,

      We're thrilled that you're enjoying your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 so much.

    I was skeptical at first about spending so much on a controller, but after just one night of using it, I'm telling you, BUY THIS CONTROLLER! I used it with the new Modern Warfare and it stepped my game up tremendously. You can customize the paddles to whatever setup you'd like. It makes reloading, switching weapons, crouching, and jumping more fluid with not having to move your fingers all over the controller. It is a must from anyone who is competitive down to casual. No regrets. Worth Every Penny!

    Outside of the known issues with stick drift, I exclusively play Xbox daily utilizing my elite controller. The trigger settings and ability to swap out my sticks for different play styles definitely improved my game play. Heck I bought a second one for my pc

    Better than the standard controllers. But they do not last much since the buttons start to fail and get stick drift.
