Quality control issues with buttons
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great feel but still suffers same issues from the first elite 2 controller. I’m a competitive gamer that used this controller pretty heavily. Within 5 the months of use, the R1 and L1 bumpers experienced loss of function. Pretty frustrating. I did get the insurance and got another one for replacement. It did fall under the Microsoft warranty but in the past, I didn’t have a good experience with them. Takes days to receive the controller and they didn’t even fix the problem.So if you plan on getting this controller, I highly recommend getting geek squad insurance. They’ll replace right on the spot. Still a solid controller for gaming.

Good but check the box before you leave.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty happy with the controller function. The cost was way too much tho. It's a game controller. It was almost $200. I was not happy with opening the box to find there was no controller in the box tho.. luckily i figured that out before I made it to my vehicle and went back in. The best buy resolved the issue for me.. but make sure to check before you leave.

Good premium quality control with some QC issues
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the Xbox controller, and I must say it offers exceptional build quality and premium materials. The controller feels robust and comfortable in hand, and the adjustable trigger settings enhance the gaming experience. The included case is a nice touch, keeping it protected on the go. However, my experience hasn't been flawless. I've had to return it a few times due to joystick drifting issues, which is quite frustrating. Additionally, the controller comes with a premium price tag, which may be a deterrent for some buyers. In summary, the Xbox controller boasts impressive build quality, materials, and design, but the recurring joystick drifting and the high cost make it a mixed investment.

Overall great controller if you have the money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller paddles took a little to get used to and build muscle memory but once you get the hang of it your reflexes in fps and other games that require quick response times is significant improved. That coupled with the fact the controller is barely heavier that a standard wireless controller and has rubber grips makes the purchase very much worth it if you were on the fence about it

The most solid controller I have ever experienced
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far the best quality controller I have ever used. Works flawlessly with my iPad for gaming. Has the perfect amount of weight to it. The quality of the unit is felt in every interaction with the bottoms and joysticks. I play games maybe once a week to once every 3 weeks. No regrets purchasing this controller.

Theres a reason why its titled “Elite”
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller looks similar to the original but its nothing near it. You can feel the quality once its held in your hands. The rubber on the left and right stick have some grip which make all the difference and it also has adjustable trigger depth to help make it more sensitive. The home button also changes colors which is awesome if your looking for that custom look.

Outstanding controller!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my son. From what I gather from him this controller is excellent compared to the non elite series. One of his favorite features is the built in battery. He said if this one ever goes kaput he would want another one just maybe a different color.

Best controller!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is expensive but after using it I think it’s worth the price. From the new grips, the ability to tighten the sticks, the longer built in battery that is USB-C, this is a nice upgrade from the original Elite. Also wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the paddles, but they feel natural and sit right at my fingertips. Definitely gives you the ability to play the way you want and map the buttons as you see fit.

Good feeling and great quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I occasionally use this Xbox controller, but it feels great in the hands, with it's rubber handles. The omnidirectional D-pad is made of metal. Overall, this controller feels better than the stock Xbox series controller.

Great Controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is amazing, the customization options and the paddles make such a difference when it comes to game play. I also like that you can change the color of the xbox logo. The grip on it is nice and the trigger stops come in use for certain games. Never going back to a normal controller.

Good controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality & customization of this controller are excellent. There’s a little bit too much play due to the interchangeable joysticks causing a dead zone. Buttons don’t register sometimes not sure if this is a software issue. GET RID OF THE PLAYSTATION JOYSTICK AND REPLACE WITH MID-HIGH JOYSTICK , there’s no in between height analog joystick.
