Customers are saying
Customers express satisfaction with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options, along with its comfortable feel and good weight. However, a significant concern among users is the prevalence of stick drift and issues with button quality, particularly with the bumpers and A button. The price is also a point of hesitation for some.

Can’t recommend sadly
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s hard to recommend this controller especially at this price. After about six months it developed significant stick drift, just like it’s predecessor. Since then, Microsoft has replaced it twice for me, which I’m grateful for since it was $200, but that window is now closed and when it inevitably starts drifting again I’ll be out of luck. If you can get it on sale and you don’t mind repairing it yourself, maybe it’s worth buying, but if stick drift is a deal breaker for you just walk away.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Button quality
Good
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This control is good enough for the average try-hard. However, there are some issues with the “A” button and for some reason this controller does not respond well with Gears of War 5.

Get the plan
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these controllers and series 2 improves on the original in every way. Unfortunately, my left stick is now getting stickdrift but, that's why you buy the replacement plan.

I really do like the paddles on the rear, however I do not use all 4 that were included. Also the charging case as the charging station is cool too.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My thumbs used to hurt from clicking in the sticks when sprinting. I map L3 and R3 to paddles and my fingers are thanking me. I had the elite 1 and good grips pealed off. This one isn't supposed to have that problem.
