    Since I have an elite controller, my competitive level went so high. It’s difficult to get use to the pads, but when you do, you destroy noobs. You must buy the geek squad protection, so you can exchange it if it’s not working

    Great controller but not perfect

    The Elite Series 2 is probably the best controller I’ve ever had. However, the one big complaint I have about it is that the D-pad feels very loose. I guess it’s because it’s just the nature of it being an interchangeable part, but the D-pad should feel more high quality than it is for the price of the controller.

    I love this controller, for about a couple of months then it starts drifting or the paddles stop registering smh. If you buy it get the replacement plan. Even though Microsoft has increased it warranty to year. These things are manufactured poorly, so its luck of the draw to get one without issues.
