    Love the controllers, but they do have issue's. I've had two left bumpers go out over the year, but I wouldn't use any other controller.

    while the controller is an amazing product the durability of the product is lacking a bit, the bumper button for my controller went out so I was thankful that I had a total tech membership to help me replace the item whennit started to fail. it is a lot of money to spend for a controller but the added bonus of everything it offers over a standard controller is worth it. heres hoping the next version is better quality.

    Purchased this for my boyfriend who wasn't very interested in upgrading his controller. He's so impressed and said this helps him shoot in pubg much more accurately. It definitely is worth the money. There's been a learning curve but other than that he's thrilled!

    My son loves the controller. Unfortunately, we have had to send back to Microsoft for a second time b/c the LB/RB buttons stop working. The first replacement lasted maybe two weeks :(

      Hello Jason,

      We're glad that your son loves his Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, but sorry to hear that there was an issue with the first one he received. Thank you for your patience and we hope that the replacement works well for him.

      Happy gaming,

    Please keep in mind that this controller does not come with the charger and case like the black $180 one does! It also does not come with the extra thumbsticks!

    I love my Xbox, the elite controller makes it even better. I love that it comes with a recharging dock that you can use in the case or remove it from the case but still use it. Great fit, finish and feel. The paddles aren't my thing but it's a great controller

    Look, this controller is awesome, I love playing on it... but just like the original elite controller, it gets stick drift and it gets it really fast. You are going to fall in love with this thing and a few months later it will be unusable. If you want to get this, make sure you get the geek squad protection or you will be stuck with a 180 dollar paperweight.

    This controller was great. The construction felt solid and of high quality. I wanted to keep it but it just didn’t feel the same as the dualsense which I was used too.

    This controller was one that I had my eyes on for a long while. After finally receiving it, I was a bit disappointing at how similar it feels to the other Xbox controllers. Besides the excellent controller grips and color, the thumb stick sensitivity is like the regular Xbox controllers. Xbox controllers in general have a bigger gap when it comes to precise thumb stick aiming than PlayStation so it was disappointing to see that the elite controller is the exact same when it is advertised as being able to set your thumb stick sensitivity. This is nowhere near the same sensitivity as Returned after a few days of testing.
