It does what it should

Well made and easy to charge!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller is very nice and well made. You can program it to do whatever you want. It’s solid and a nice weight. My favorite feature is that it charges when you put it back in the case, no plugging it in. I use this controller exclusively now.

Awesome controller!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The elite controllers have come such a long way! They seem to be made much better than the original ones years ago. So far, it's been great and not needing batteries has been a huge plus!

Good enough to purchase again, but…
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love how it feels in my hands. Build quality could be a little better this is my second one after a couple of years, my right bumper only would work if pressing on a certain part of the bumper and the grip started to pull up a little bit. Other complaint is the software required to map buttons and update your controller on PC forced me to upgrade to Windows 11, not a huge deal but you know that’s just another lame tactic on Windows’s part.

TOP TIER controller :0
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You know one thing that I personally love? Its Simple, something that makes my life easier. And I can personally verify that this controller makes my life easier. Not too brag or anything, but ever since ive purchased this controller I have been untouchable in games. From fifa, to call of duty, I mean even fortnite. Im dishing it out all day with these sticks. Ive most definitely experience an improvement in my overall gaming experience since purchasing so would definitely recommend.

The best controller for Xbox or PC
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did lots of research before purchasing and had it narrowed down to this controller and a Scuff prestige. After purchasing the elite I am very happy I went with it. The customization of the controls is great and the feel of the controller in your hand is just what I was looking for.

The modern day sword
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.More durable than the elite 2 though a little lighter and it doesnt come with the case paddles sticks and d pad, those extras would net you the same price for the whole bundle anyway plus colors. Ive been abusing this thing on multiple high intensity games for a while and no broken bumpers or anything. Sticks arent aligned right though. So micro adjustments are hard but using the tall stick/controlfreeks fixes this for the most part. Now my hand doesnt cramp playing claw and of course double the control over everything 9/10

Great controller!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the feel of this controller. The rubbery grips give a better tactile feel. Slightly heavier, but not so much it feels uncomfortable. Haven’t played with adjustments just yet but the options of swapping out buttons is a definite plus.

One suggestion
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller! I've used it since it came out and has been great. The customization is easy, back paddles are very convenient to use, and the grip makes sure my sweaty hands don't accidentally drop it. My ONLY suggestion is to get the 2 year geek squad coverage on it. You won't regret it. I had some bad stick drift and a bumper not register all the time when clicked. Like all things you use often, they'll get some wear on it. Best buy makes it easy with the coverage.

Worth The Money
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the original Series 2 but I wanted the White one since it’s announcement. They also announced that the elite Series is apart of the design lab on Xbox website so you can customize the way you’d like. Like advertised, it doesn’t come with the extra accessories like the original but if you don’t use them or had paddles and thumb sticks from previous ownership, you’re set. Update the controller once you pair it and you’ll be able to change the color of the Xbox logo.

Great for fast paced gaming/custom controls.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had an elite controller in the past that had some issues (button sticking, mild stick drift even after adjustment). This one feels like they finally have it figured it out. I haven’t had any issues. I love being able to map buttons to the extra triggers and how responsive the controls are. Great for fast paced games (ARPGS, FPS, Battle Royales).

You get what you pay for, sort of
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feels good in my hands and has a nice weight to it. This was a replacement for a series one elite that had worn out in a number of ways long before it should have for what I paid. I'm concerned the series 2 will be showing the same wear within the same time period, but decided to take a chance anyway. I guess time will tell. Some third-party controllers have the same weight but simply don't have the same feel as the authentic Microsoft elite controllers, which is why I bit the bullet and went ahead and bought another one despite thinking the last one wore out way too fast for the price point.
