Customers are saying
Customers enjoy the overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options offered by this controller. Users frequently highlight the comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality feel during gameplay. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the long-term durability of the buttons and the potential for stick drift. Additionally, while many appreciate the design, some find the premium price point and specific bumper functionality to be areas for improvement.

Great but longevity is terrible
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this controller. The feel and the customization is great. But I’ve only had it 7 months and the right bumper is already starting to fail. After spending almost $200 on a controller I would expect it to last far longer. Very disappointed in the lifespan of the controller.

Microsoft did not improve the Elite Controller
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this controller about 6 months ago, and right out of the package I noticed the buttons (mostly A and B) not registering when pressed. I ran the button registration tester in settings and about 2 out of every 10 presses were registering. I returned this controller thinking it was just bad luck, but the new one had the exact same problem. Now 3 months later the controller has developed the worst stick drift I have experienced in a controller. Really Microsoft? What an upgrade from the Elite 1, you guys really learned from that one. I will be exchanging once again when Best buy has one in stock. Truly pathetic. In no way is this review about Best buy! They are a great company to work with and really take care of you in cases like this. There is a reason Microsoft doesn't warranty their own pathetic products.

Great controller while it lasts.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We own two of these series 2 “ elite” controllers and now this is the second time both controllers have had to be replaced in the past year due to the bumpers and/or triggers failing. Prior to this we had the first elite controllers and they had to be replaced 12 times between the 2 controllers due to the same failures. It’s funny how our $60 controllers that came with our systems are still in great order and functioning properly. I don’t think we will be buying these again. It’s disappointing to know that Microsoft can make a great system but can’t produce a controller that will last. To top it all off, Buy Buy is “out of stock” because these controllers are always failing. It’s so bad that Best Buy hiked their replacement/warranty fee for this item.
