||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller all around. Only complaint is if you have bigger hands it does feel a bit small when trying to scrunch your fingers and bit the paddles other than that. Excellent build quality

Budget Elite Series
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing for the price and very good battery life..
I would recommend this to a friend There is literally nothing wrong with it!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first I was afraid to buy it because ive read reviews prior to buying it about how there was controller drift. However I received the controller yesterday there was absolutely no drift. For the joysticks, it may take some time to get used to because the grips are so strong and if you have been using a normal controller for about 5 months prior to buying this, it may take a few days to get used to. Make sure to keep the tension in the middle or the beginning if you play fortnite and also make sure to watch youtube videos on the controller before you buy this.

Posted .Hey Pani,
Thank you for sharing your experience with your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. We're confident that once you've had a chance to get used to its grip and features, it may be difficult to go back to a standard controller. Your suggestions are excellent, too. We hope you win a lot of online matches with it.
Happy gaming,

Just good enough
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller is great tbh except it does have some quality control issues. Out of the box when I purchased it 05/2021 the left analog stick didn't really work unless I press really hard. Over time pieces start to just break or become less clicky and effective like my LB button now. If you purchase this I highly recommend getting the protection plan with it because you will need it.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat build quality with a little maintenance
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I will say this controller is perfect in every way and you'll pay a premium for it. I've used mine for 3 years now and its held up pretty well. I did have to take it apart and follow a tutorial on cleaning the insides specifically the right bumper. It was a pretty simple fix and works like new just need some 90+ alcohol rubbed on the bumper contacts.

- Cons mentioned:Button quality, Stick drift
Worst quality control ive ever experienced
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since launch, I have returned 7+ controllers due to RB double/triple clicking, A,Y face buttons not registering when pressed, and MAJOR stick drift. Microsoft's quality control for the elite controllers (series 1+2) is non existent. Ive wasted hundreds of dollars purchasing the best buy warranty with every exchange bc i KNOW the issue(s) i mentioned above will be there. Ive now purchased the geek squad package to try to save money. I honestly dont even know what to suggest to those who read this bc i need those paddles now but literally every single controller ive recieved has been defective in a major way..
No, I would not recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Weight
