Great for some! B+
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not for everyone. It is a great controller even for the money, but it is a different experience and for windows gaming it seems to give me a little trouble with Bluetooth compared to a standard BT Xbox controller. If you like Quality, customization, and ascetics this controller is for you.

Solid Buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good quality controller with a great battery life. I haven't had any complaints about the hardware. If you are looking to get this for use with your PC, know you will need to download/update drivers using an additional Xbox app. While inconvenient, it shouldn't deter you from the great quality comfort this controller provides.
I would recommend this to a friend Its Good!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am a Scuf user. Got gen1 Elite controller 2 or 3 years ago and hated the paddles. Went back to Scuf. Wanted a new Scuff, but they were out of stock for Xbox. Decided to go with Gen2 Elite and was impressed. Paddles weren't as sensitive as the Gen1s. That's was my main gripe, love the improvements from the 1st elites. If they change the paddles to be on the back like the Scufs I would stay with the elite controllers. But will be buying a new Scuf soon, but the elite will definitely stay as back up.

Elite 2 controller
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The function is amazing being able to use the paddles and customization. On that same note the quality is some what lacking as the rest of the elites the rb and lb are always an issue . No stick drift yet after a year …yet
I would recommend this to a friend Worth the upgrade
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love my elite controller! Definitely worth the upgrade, especially is you play controller a lot. I find it easy to switch between the elite controller and keyboard.

Parts sold separately
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a really nice controller. Smoother and more precise than my old xbox one controllers. Apparently the "Core" version doesn’t come with any parts for some of the extra levers, so I had to drop $20 online for some aftermarket levers for the back of the controller.
I would recommend this to a friend Gaming experience just got better
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are a core gamer and old school like me ,this one is for you. Buttons are smooth ,interface is quick and awesome. Connects quickly and its cheap if compared to other ones in the market

Should've been better
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a great design, but for the price it should've lasted way longer. With simple use, nothing out of the ordinary, it lasted for about a year. The rubber sides started peeling away and it also began having stick drift. I wouldn't recommend spending this much on a controller that won't give you much in return.

Great when it works
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller feels great when it works but the elite controller is poor quality for the price stick drift is ridiculous. I would definitely recommend geek squad protection don’t waste your time with sending it back to Microsoft to get fixed. I’ve had gone through 4 elite controllers all stick drift issues. Buy open box it’s cheaper & better deal

Great replacement
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to replace my previous controller because of wear. It’s nice that the core is available so I don’t have to buy everything else that comes with it since I already own them. The controller itself is my favorite, most customizable in my opinion.

Great controller if you like options
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After using the controller for a few months, I have to say it’s great! The customization options for the analog sticks is good. But this really shines for me using Steam input on my PC to map the back paddles for additional button presses and shortcuts for games. Haven’t had any quality control issues yet as others have said online.

XBOX Elite controller is worth the price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By for the best controller for the XBOX Series X & S. I have multiple controllers from hi-end to cheap and I've found the elites customizable options for me are better. Also has great battery life around 35 hrs of hard core gaming. It's more expensive then most, but cheaper and better in my opinion, than more expensive cintrollers with the same features.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its a great controller, but not much different than the Elite 1... I'm so glad I waited to upgrade until my E1 grips fell off...
