Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. They also frequently praise its comfortable grip, good weight, and responsive feel. However, a significant number of customers have reported issues with stick drift developing quickly and concerns regarding the durability of the buttons, including the bumpers. Despite some initial hesitation about the price, the positive attributes like its overall comfort and useful paddles generally contribute to a positive user experience.

    I was reluctant to buy the Elite 2, after reading many bad reviews of it, but I went ahead and ordered one as I love my xbox original elite 1. Been using it for almost a month and it works great. Will write more after six month.

    The elite 2 is an incredible controller, probably the best you can buy! It’s is leaps and bounds better in every aspect that’s the first elite controller. Once you use and elite 2 controller you won’t want anything else.

    Bought the black and the white core of these, both easily get a slight stick drift. But the remote itself feels and looks awsome.

    This controller is way better than the first version. The case that it comes with has a portable charger and a built-in battery in the controller that last for a very long time very convenient very good.

    Haven’t heard complains from my 13 yr old son but only positive comments. I must say, though, it was pretty expensive which pushes me forward to have my son work from now on if he wants to get such things (not a bad idea now).
