Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

      Hello there,

      We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, but sorry to hear there's an issue with the B button. Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft. If it's still within the warranty period, we recommend contacting Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Would have been an amazing purchase but stick drift in less than a month and to fix it would be another $80 and voided the warranty…

    [Employee of bestbuy] Bought the first elite 2 in white, noticed the A button would only register if directly pushed down in the center. I was getting missed presses all the time so i returned it. Got this elite 2 in black and literally exact same issue. A button was missing presses all the time. I returned for full refund and will not even look into these controllers until they can fix the obvious design flaws.
