    Good Controller

    Got this controller to improve my gameplay. There is a bit of a learning curve at first. Once you get this controller it's hard to go back. My controller works fine out of the box, but the headphones make a buzzing noise with this controller. Its a good controller.

    Excellent elite series 2 control, very comfortable to play with Forza and shooter games, I recommend this piece of hardware, it is worth the money.

    Overall the controller works good but within three months of my purchase the RB button is already starting to stick and not work, it works sometimes but only when I press it hard, if I lightly press the RB button it does not work, so definitely make sure you purchase the warranty on this controller. It's $45 for 2 years and it's worth it because Microsoft does put out junk controllers and this is probably the best of the junk controllers they have out of their junky controllers.....that's why Microsoft is in a class action lawsuit right now for putting out trash controllers I literally have nine controllers on my shelf that do not work, I have three kids and I'm on my 10th controller.

    It does the job! small amount of stick drift, adjust the dead zones on the game you are playing and it works itself out

    Is it expensive? Yes Is it worth it? YES. It's heavy which makes it feel sturdy, the paddles on the back add extra inputs (which I love) and the trigger locks are a godsend for shooters.

    I owned the Series 1 Gears of War 4 edition and I loved it (until the grips came off). With the Age of Quarantine, I have been gaming a lot more and really missed my Elite. So when i had a chance to buy this, I could not press "Add to Cart" any quicker!!! Yes...it is expensive, but it is worth it.

    QA Issues but Solid Controller

    Received a defective stick. Microsoft fixed it under repair but not after sending me two broken “replacements”. Quality assurance seems to still be an issue on these elite controllers; however, once you get a solid one it’s a great controller.

    A definite improvement over the base controller physical customizations are good as well as the software customizations. Rechargeable battery and dock are nice too. GameStop had it for 139.99 so I price matched
