    The Elite 2 controller is good, but flaws remain.

    The Elite 2 controller be the greatest XBox controller ever, but it suffers from the same flaws and weaknesses as it predecessor. The sticks mechanisms break down to wear and tear gaming within six months of use. Eventually the push down click on the stick intermittently stops functioning and you're screwed if the click is a vital action in a game, like sprinting or running. Creep is starting to rear it's ugly head in the same stick. And just this week one of the bumpers began intermittently stopping function or it's sticking. All of these issues should've been corrected with the Elite 2. But instead of upgrading the quality and durability of what really matters most they put more R&D into the exterior cosmetics, which I like. It's actually feels really good in your hands. I LIKE IT, but I want to love the Elite 2. It's just not what a Gen 2 premium controller that demands $30 over Gen 1, but doesn't deliver in the wear and tear department. Will I buy another, of course. And this time I'll buy the freakin' insurance. It was a Gen 2, I thought I would be better.

    Overall this controller has been amazing. It has super high quality parts and is a step above the standard controller. I did have an issue with mine within 6 months but was able to send it into Microsoft for the warrently and gets replacement device easily. Overall very happy with my controller and will be buying another if I ever need to get a new controller.

    Just a basic elite controller

    Bought as a spare for my 3 year old Elite controller, just a basic elite controller with no accessories, do not recommend buying if you don't have an elite controller with all the accesories already. I'm taking off a star because it doesn't come with a replacement tall stick which I feel could have been included at the very least since it is a main wear item. It does come with 2 short thumbsticks though.

    The Elite Series 2 controller is one of, if not, my favorite controllers ok the market. Its very comfortable to hold in your hands, and offers tons of customizability for many different games and play styles. This is a must for any xbox user.

    Best Controller I Have Ever Used

    This is the best controller I have ever played with! The buttons are very responsive, the ability to change sensitivity on that trigger buttons is amazing, and the paddle buttons on the back feel great. I mostly play Fortnite and I use the most sensitive setting for my right trigger and the middle sensitivity for my left trigger. It’s taking me a bit to switch to using my back buttons instead of using the buttons on the front, but I’ll get there with more practice! The looks are great as well, but my favorite part is the magnetic charging station. I just lay the controller back in its case and it immediately starts charging! I don’t have to move it around first to make it work either. 10/10 would recommend. If it was $30-40 cheaper, I think these would be flying off the shelves!
