Elite use

Professional Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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

Warranty is awesome!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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).

Great quality product, could include more.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Worked for 3 months - no new replacement offered
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Faulty Thumbstick
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Having the paddles is very convenient for any shooter game. The controller definitely has a premium feel to it, but my left thumbstick was faulty and I had to return it.

Better Second Time Around
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller looks and feels great. Also it responds very well. I love that you can adjust the joy sticks and that it has an push button customization setting. All and all The Xbox Elite Controller 2 is way better than the first Elite Controller. GREAT JOB!!!
