Manufacturing Issues
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.1 after the other, these things don’t work right out the box. Y button issues, this is a manufacturing issue that Microsoft needs to look into especially considering the fact that this controller is significantly more expensive than your regular controller. Imagine paying a premium price for a garbage product.

Open box catastrophe
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had gone through 2 open boxes both horrendous, 1st one said excellent condition yet didnt start and was missing the dpad changeable part. Then the 2nd open box in excellent condition didnt even come with the the caseing or extra parts just the remote. So far has ruined the open box experience for me personally.

Does what it needs to - still disappointing.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Build quality is sub par for the price. Don’t use the term ‘Elite’ if you can’t do something as simple as properly glue the palm grips continuously.

Junk
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for our son May 8 and delivered on May 11. On September 4, the controller is no longer worked. My son isn’t the type of kid who gets all mad at the game and tosses his stuff. He recognizes the value of money and is careful with his things. Called Best Buy, can’t return and Manufacture Warranty is 90 days. So at 115 days, the $200.00 controller is useless and our only option is to purchase another. I don’t know who I am more frustrated with Best Buy or Microsoft.

Terrible
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second controller I have had to buy my son in a one year period. This one had the same problem occur within a couple weeks. We did not get the insurance this time because the same problem kept happening when it was “fixed”. The right side button at top stops working. Microsoft needs to get their product right. Very disappointing….

Sold me a 2 year old controller as “excellent”
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased “open box excellent condition” for $139. It randomly disconnects. Best Buy takes returns for 14 days. They directed me to Microsoft. The 1 year manufacturer warranty ran out a year ago! I just bought it 30 days ago! It’s also missing a button cover on the back for the trigger adjustment. Shame on you Best Buy.

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wanted to love these but: Quality bad (had 2 of these) Sticks too stiff Wouldn’t recommend Listen to reviews The first elite controller was better imo. If u can deal with a wired controller get the fusion pro its cheaper and sticks feel similar to the regular xbox controller. Paddles are a little flimsy but not really much of an issue.
