    The right bumper goes bad, this is my 3rd elite 2. I get a year out of them on average. At least now it's a bit less $ without all the triggers and sticks of which I have several sets of. Sending them to Microsoft for repair is a nightmare, and they send you someone else's they fixed. I'd rather save the time and aggravation and just buy a new one.

    Same great feel of the black elite, and a nice discount if you already have the case and back bottoms.

    While the standard xbox controller is more than serviceable, having a heftier, customizable option will always win out in my opinion. This controller is awesome.

    Elite is the proper name for this controller. The features make it very versatile. I would never buy a regular controller again.

    It took me years to finally buy this controller. I’m happy with it. I’d say this is worth it if you play FPS games (WZ, COD, etc.). Using the paddles gives you the ability to do things like reload or armor up or mark locations - without moving your thumbs from the buttons or joystick. The weight of the controller is legit too. It feels like good build quality. One of the things that this got rid of for like 2 weeks was controller drift. After a couple weeks, it came back but was less intense. All in all I’d say if you are thinking about this and play FPS games, do it!

    I bought this item less than a month ago and it already has stick drift. Pretty disappointing. It’s not a major issue right now as the stick drift isn’t too severe and I mostly play games where I’m always using the stick, but on games where it’s left untouched for a little bit it’s quite annoying. For $180 I’m pretty disappointed that it already has this issue since cheap $20 dollar controllers have gone for years without issue.

    I honestly cannot explain how much better the elite series 2 is than a basic controller. From ergonomcis to battery life and customization its a homerun.
