    This is a BIG upgrade over the Elite Series 1 controller but doesn't fix all of the flaws. It warrants a five star review because it's the best gaming controller I've used (haven't tried the new PS5 controller yet).

    Love being able to have 3 saved game set ups and the push of a button. The paddles on the back make games like call of duty and destiny much easier to play.

    Love this controller! I have bought 2 now. I play alot and a normal controller will start drifting for me after like 2 months. I had my first Elite Controller for over 7 months. It seriously feels like a professional controller

    I just got xbox elite series 2 yesterday! Love the feel, the extra buttons, and mainly the warranty! I have had issues with thumbsticks / sensors wearing out in the past on regular xbox controllers, but Microsoft's warranty covers it with this controller!!!!! I am so happy and can not wait to really get grinding with this controller! I initially was going to purchase a Scuf, but after a great review I watched on Youtube.com (Scuf vs Elite series 2), I asked to cancel the order and asked for a refund and headed straight to Bestbuy. Even though Microsoft covers it for a year (and you can buy 2 additional years), i opted to by the warranty through the GeekSquad for 2 years, because they would replace it immediately (and i would not have to wait to send the controller in and wait for one to be sent back).

    For the price it's the quality you expect. I've had the elite series 2 controller for years and wanted a second one for my other Xbox. It was an easy choice to grab this one without the need for the complete bundle. My only complaint is that i feel it should include at least one pair of tabs for the back to give you a bit more customization. Understandably it is the "core" version, but if I'm buying the controller for this much, which has the same functionality of a standard controller out of box, i do feel it should include just those two extra items.

    Controller is great and i would definitely recommend on buying one over any controller ! But after 6 months , my left stick is getting a lag when I walk backwards playing zombies or multiplayer on Cold War , good thing I paid for my geek squad coverage !

    I really like the tension control adjustment. My old controller had button issues and the core was a great replacement and I just use my on hand parts.

    Worked for 3 months - no new replacement offered

    Purchased at the end of July '21. In the beginning of Nov '21 the right bumper and the A button both started going out. The buttons work sometimes, but do not always work when pressed. I have taken great care of this controller and have had controllers for years without any buttons going out. Best Buy won't let me swap it out for a new one because the purchase was made too long ago. It is under a 1 year warranty with Microsoft, but to fulfil this warranty I will have to send the controller off and let them perform some tests on it (who knows how long this will take during which I will have no controller). Then if they determine something is wrong with it they will send me a REFURBISHED controller. I spent $200 on this, used it for only 3 months, it crapped out, and now the best I am being offered is a refurbished replacement.. Stay away.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
