Great controller.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller. Because of the button mapping and paddles I was able to greatly improve response times in some games. Played numerous house and very very very minimal stick drift. The elite series controller are always my go to. Some say it’s a little heavy but to me I like the weight and doesn’t seem cheap.

Great follow up to the fist one.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is without a doubt a better feeling design then the first Elite controller. It has 3 positions for controller config potions, and the grips on the handles have a softer bump fell to them. The paddles on the bottom also feel better, a little more tucked in and out of the way. Also love the blacked out look of the controller. Just hope that the right and left bumper do better then the first Elite controller, Had to get mine fixed/replaced twice because they failed to work.

Elite 2 is a great controller.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks and feels great. Did not contain the hotkey bars I was expecting that came with the previous models. Still, I was able to take my old ones and use those. Other than that, it’s great!

Meh
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller features is a FIVE STAR. the extra features are great, the four paddles, extra joysticks, tunable resistance on the joysticks. i've been using nothing but an elite 2 for the past few years. The downside, and it's a major one, is the controller durability. Since 2020 I've exchanged controllers about 8 times. I play a lot of warzone and the bumper buttons (LB, RB) are always the first buttons to start losing responsiveness. Usually one joystick will get stick drift, sometimes bothe will get it. Depending on how much you game, buy the $60, 2 year waranty.

Xbox Elite Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Product. Don’t have to continually buy a new controller because of the analogs. All pieces of controller can be switched out. Definitely worth the money

Love the customization
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this skeptically at first but have since loved using it. I love the extra weight, it makes the controller feel much more substantial in the hand. Following that, the customization with the extra buttons and joysticks unlock some cool stuff in games.

Good Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very good controller. I only give it 3 stars because the A button doesn't work correctly. I can take 2-3 times of pressing it in order for it to work. It was that way straight out of the box. The controller is still overpriced. However, this controller is far superior to the basic Xbox controllers.

Great while it lasts. Dreaded stick drift!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is amazing in every way except 1. I would think that a $200 controller would last more than a year and a half before the sticks started drifting with no way to fix. I have original XBOX 360 controllers that I still use years and years later. Those cost $60 and still work perfectly, but this super expensive (and totally worth the price for how it works... when it works) controller needs to be replaced not even 2 years after purchase. I am a middle aged man who uses this probably a quarter of what a young kid would and it always gets stored in its cradle after use, and still.... have to replace it already. This is a problem I see hundreds of videos referencing too, so it is not isolated. I hope they fix it in future generations of controllers, because everything about it is truly Elite, except its life span.

I mean its a controller
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you need a top of the like controller this MIGHT be it. Its good sturdy, long battery, and feels good but it can tend to get stick drift not in the normal way but that the sticks work so well that the slightest touch and youll keep drifting when having your finger rest on it

Best Controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is by far the best one. I have a Series 1 and I like it but, the grip portion will come off. But so far I have been using and making the Joy Stick adjustment and it is awesome and you feel and see the difference on the accuracy of the movement. I like the fact that I can charge it and use it for 40 hrs, I haven’t tested it the 40 hrs, but I like being connected when I play FPS.The back paddles feel better at their current location, better than the series 1. Let see after time how this controller operates.

Drift
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely loved everything about this controller. Weight feels great in hands, super comfortable, and customizable buttons/sticks to suit your preferences. I owned this controller for 2 months, when suddenly the sticks started drifting. I didn’t drop it, I keep good care of it, but this still happened. I should have done my research. 2 months for almost $200 just doesn’t cut it. Stick to the cheap ones, at least you expect them to be junk.

The best controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Elite controller is unmatched. My gameplay has increased. From a quicker trigger to more responsive joysticks. I would recommend to buy two.

Best, worst controller's.. Love - Hate
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is literally the best line of controllers.. The weight, the feel, the functionality.. AMAZING!! I love the elite series on what they should deliver. 2 Star rating is because i have 3 Elite series 1 controllers that all have common issues. (Drift, bumper, peeling grip) I had read a lot of these things were addresses with the Series 2.. Nope.. Still a hot steamy pile of crap.. Purchased in October and this has the worst case of drift I've ever had.. The right bumper is super sensitive, one push and it thinks it's two. The grip hasnt peeled so i guess theres a pro.. Also have the Geek Squad Protection but they have been out of stock now for like 5 months so im stuck using this or one of my normal controllers..

Xbox remote
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Out for all the Xbox controllers I've had in the past this remote has been known to last 2 or more years without having stick drift. The buttons do not get stuck or lag while playing online.

The weight, configuration options, no complaints.

Definitely a step up from series 1
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great improvement from the original elite controller. The grip is extended from just the backing to the front, back, and triggers. The multi-stage trigger locks were surprisingly more helpful. The controller also has more software settings and setting “slots”. Two biggest improvements to me are the new paddles which are a bit smaller making it less cumbersome to use all four and of course the integrated rechargeable battery pack takes the cake. Definitely a top shelf controller!
