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.

    As excited as I was to finally get an Xbox Elite controller, I have not ever been more disappointed by a controller in my life. This is the night I received it, and I am already having issues with it. The A button gets stuck so much, and this is a common issue as it appears in other reviews. Microsoft created a flawed controller that isn't worth half its price. The proof is in the reviews as consumers prefer the Fusion wired controller over this Elite series 2 controller. Even the regular stock controller feel more comfortable, and that's pretty sad to say as they are proven to be cheaply made. I will be looking forward to just convert to PC gaming.

    battery lasts longer, it feels better, connects better, is more customizable, and is even built better than the elite series 1 definitely worth purchasing.
