Good controller beware of bumpers
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best controller out there for competitive gamers. You have to buy the protection plan because your RB button will be having an input delay or even no input response at all. So if you're okay with replacing the controller so often then this is for you.

||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The control is the best you can buy but if you do play a lot it will only last just under a year before control drifts and everything

I would recommend this to a friend I am barely going to use this
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the pieces being held magnetically and the Bluetooth capability. The option of easily switching between devices (PC to Xbox vice versa) with the push of the same button twice is something that I never thought I needed.

I would recommend this to a friendBest controller yet
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works so smooth and easy love the paddles easy to map
I would recommend this to a friendIt WAS great.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Yes, this is a great controller, but it still has insidious defects. Purchased in July of 2020, and now 5 months in, the left joystick drifts constantly. After further research I discovered that Microsoft has begun manufacturing a “improved” version of the same controller (model FST-00008) versus the FST-00001 version. The model I received is the latter. Most people who have purchased this seem to be experiencing the same issues. I have the Best Buy protection plan, and intend on replacing this controller when Best Buy gets it back into stock, and am hoping for the newer version.

- Cons mentioned:Button quality
'A' button has major sticking issue
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The overall feel is good, it doesn't feel cheap. But the A button sticking prevented me from gracefully climbing into my favorite camping spot in Modern Warfare. It sticks down every 4 to 5 presses. Now sold out so swapping isn't even an option, might just upgrade the grips on my elite 1 and push it back into service. Revisit this controller when the kinks have been worked out.

- Pros mentioned:Feel, Weight
better than scuf
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best controller you can buy. Being built out of metal gives a nice weight and feel that I prefer over any scuf or standard controller
I would recommend this to a friend Pro-controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ability to change the thumb sticks make this a real upgrade although the paddles on the back take time to get used to.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat controller replace thumb pad though
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality, the thumb pad is awkward at times. I would recommend replacing that with the plus button one

I would recommend this to a friendRed elite series 2 controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the elite series 2 controllers. The only thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t come with the accessories pack anymore. You have to purchase that separately.

Stick drift
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As most Xbox controllers, stick drift comes fast and is unavoidable. Outside of that, it’s pretty good
