Solid unit

Good controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bad a** controller ! The paddles take some getting used to and the customization is crazy . The only downside though is that buttons do sometimes take some force to work, can’t lightly tap it or it might not register other than that great controller

Don't waste your money or time.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stick drift, buttons breaking from simple use (triggers and peices rattling) all the common issues from a classic xbox controller but in a more expensive package. Go buy a scuff controller with Hall Effect joysticks and mechanical buttons instead.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Battery life
Expensive but great value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller, the grips are amazing and the the buttons are very smooth. It’s a rechargeable controller, all you have to do it out it in the case when you’re done and it will be ready for next time you play. Have not had any issues with it but so far, it’s definitely worth it.

Great for competitive gamers!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is great for playing xbox in a competitive way! My first series 2 had a few issues with bumpers, but now I have this one and it’s working great. I definitely suggest the geek squad protection to help with any shortages or stickiness to the buttons.

The best Premium and Customizable Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A very premium controller with the premium experience to match. While I have a few qualms with the Xbox Accessory Software App that you would utilize the remap the controller's paddles, the controller itself played very well through the various FPS and RPG games I used it for, and I had zero issues setting it up with my computer and with Steam. Would recommend for anyone who wants to really have the most premium customizable controller experience.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Customization, Weight
Quality and comfort
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Always the best controller on the market. Very hard to go back to a standard controller after using an elite. The weight and customization options make it stand out from other controllers.

Best official controller.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best official Xbox controller around. Love the paddles and adjustability of certain aspects. Main dislike is the seemingly short lifespan of the sticks. Very common issue.
I would recommend this to a friend The buttons feel very crisp
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Im usually not a Xbox player but everything felt very high quality to the touch very smooth and overall worth it

Better controller.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Xbox controller really does make a difference in game play. It may be slightly heavier that regular controller, but the accuracy makes the difference. I would recommend this controller over the regular one any day.
I would recommend this to a friend Get controller just can't recommend it
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first time buying elite controller for any gaming system The problem I have with this controller is they put this rubber grip on there but it comes off on the edges I've only had this controller 6 months for the price I spent on it I shouldn't have these issues until they fix the glue issue I do not recommend buying
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat Controller!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing Controller feel and grip. Has a 3 step Variable trigger throw for ease of use and sub-second timing for where it counts. Wireless and Wired, comes with a cery nice controller color matched cable. This is just an awesome controller all around. REMEMBER buying this controller only is the controller itself. The paddles, different height thumbsticks, and D-pad change outs ARE NOT INCLUDED. So after purchasing i highly recommend buying a elite controller kit online. Found one that was a perfect paint match for the red controller.

Sexy Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Clean sexy controller , too bad Microsoft cheaped out and couldn’t add the additional paddles and accessories. If you go out and buy them separately you end up spending more than If you just bought the elite 2 controller
