    Good but heavy.

    I like this controller but it was too heavy for me. After years of using a Scuf with no rumbler packs, I did not like the weight. Too bad because I was looking forward to using this controller more.

    Good controller but have to spam some of the buttons sometimes in order just to get it to go.

    When the controller works as intended, it is fantastic. I am on my third controller now; the first Microsoft was replaced due to losing connection randomly, the second I replaced due to stick drift. Now on my third, just outside of warranty, the controller has again developed terrible stick drift on the left stick rendering the controller useless. The stick drift is so bad you can not navigate menus!

    The Xbox Elite Series 2 Controller is a complete upgrade from the previous Series 1 and also provides a built in battery which is recharchable with a provided charging pad. 5/5 Stars. 2 Thumbs Up.

    Good overall but the first one I got had a big dead zone in the stick. This is possible with any controller. Also prefered the size of the back paddles from the Elite 1 controller.

    This is the king of controllers truly. I was an elite 1 owner and this is an upgrade for sure. The tension adjustment and trigger locks are my favorite new features. I picked these up because it was mentioned that they would be next gen compatible.

    Got this for my son. He has the series 1 and said that there have been some improvements to it in this version. Something about the share button and the trigger having three depth settings so you can use it at a faster rate.

    WAY BETTER than the original

    Improves on the original! In this model, the case is textured unlike the previous model which had glued on rubber grips. Better in every way, only questionable downgrade is the paddles are smaller than the Elite controller 1.

    Same controller as the regular elite 2, just newer. And hopefully they fixed the bumper issue with these. Otherwise, very happy.

    good Hardware, SERIOUSLY FLAWED software.

    The hardware is good. But the Software needs SERIOUS work... Connecting to this controller is a nightmare if you expect it to work seamlessly between different connection types. If you have paired the controller with Windows, it's fine. But if you need to configure the buttons using the Windows App, you need to connect it with USB. And doing so, pretty much deletes the wireless connection. you will have to delete the controller from your Bluetooth Devices, and then re-pair EVERY SINGLE FREAKING TIME you do this. Seriously flawed.

      Hello there,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback on your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. One workaround for keeping your configuration settings when going wireless is to get a Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10, which will allow you to have a wireless connection on your Windows 10 PC without the need for Bluetooth. Please go here for more information: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/microsoft-xbox-wireless-adapter-for-windows-10-black/6253924.p?skuId=6253924
