Almost a necessity
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second series 2 elite. So i advise being careful, because the joystick can be prone to drifting. Other than that it feels wonderful in the hands. It gives an extra level of precision and feedback. That once you've gotten used to it there is no going back.

Great Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is awesome. The price is high, but the materials and build of it make it feel very expensive and worth every penny. It's a little heavier, the buttons feel way better, and it's easy to set up. Worth every penny.

Wireless and no more annoying batteries!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I LOVE THIS CONTROLLER! It is a great quality product worth what you are paying in the long run just by saving you money on AA batteries! I completely recommend this and buying the warranty as well, because you never know what could happen but it will and they do a good job at replacing your stuff with their warranty. I fully recommend!

Bad build quality
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this after having to Elite Series 2 controllers fail on me in less than 3 years and decided to try the cheaper Core version to save some money. It didn't go well. The right joystick was loose, and the cap not screwed on tightly and the stick spun freely. I was able to hand tighten it but didn't exactly feel confident at that point. I connected the controller and discovered the right stick was drifting badly out of the box, over 17% percent on input tester. Beyond that, the sticks just didn't feel nearly as good as a standard Elite Series 2, the right stick felt like it was grinding on the shell, not the smooth feel of the original, and the joysticks just overall felt cheaper. The whole controller just felt cheaper in general, and I decided not to pick up another one upon returning it. I'm just going for a cheaper controller at this point. I'm sick of having such bad build quality on $130+ controllers.

Great Upgrade from the Elite Series 1!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a on the fence when deciding to purchase the Elite Series 2 because I've seen tons of feedback about stick drift but Im glad I went through with the purchase, with a few tweaks in the settings to make the stick not so sensitive I've experienced no stick drift. The build quality is top notch and a huge improvement from the first series!

Great features
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the durability and easy adjustments but its a bit heavy. Not too bad for the price. I just wish the bottom paddles were placed differently since I'm used to playing on a Scuf. I find it too easy to accidentally press the paddles with how I grip the controller. Over all a great controller!

Must Buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my weapon, there are many like it but this one is mine! I literally can’t play any game without this controller. Buy this and you’ll never play with another controller... ever. I have had this for almost 1 year and there was some very small stick drift but Microsoft sent me a new one under warranty. Recommended.

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller, love the grips and looks cool. Only complaint is it disconnects randomly. Seemingly when I’m playing zombies and then I die. Microsoft hasn’t issued a patch yet but I’d imagine it’s a software issue as it’s not a range/obstruction issue cuz I’m 5 feet from the dock/Xbox.
