Pretty good
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Weights good, the grip is better, interchangeable sticks and d pad is better, and the paddles are amazing. If you can learn to use them naturally in the way you can map them to different buttons. You can become a great player

Expensive but worth it
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Initially, I was hesitant in purchasing this device solely because of its price tag. A friend suggested that the controller is worth the price: She was right. The elite controller feels premium and definitely feels leagues above the standard xbox and even series controller. The convenience of the paddles adds a layer of quickness that makes game play feel more immersive and smooth. A hefty price tag, but if you have the money it is well worth the price.

Great product!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great choice of you want extra paddles for playing games, would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for stick drift within a few months depending on what you play and how often I'm sure. Fix that and it would be 5 stars for sure!

Expensive but great addition for hardcore gamer
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great feel and functionality however this is the second one of these my son has gone through in 2 years. Buy the extended TotalTech from Best Buy. The unit is substantial and sophisticated but the magnets that hold some of the control surfaces lose their strength over time. Very expensive.

Good but breakable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller is very high quality, has a lot of good features, and is easily accessible with all of its features. The main problem is how easily it breakers. I have had one for 1 year and have had to turn it in once for repair and have the same rescue ring problem again. It has lots of problems with the bumpers like one click registering two and having to press in hard to register it.

Almost perfect controller, get insurance for it.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second one I have owned. The first one was great, lasted 2 years of daily gaming. Then the RB button stopped working, so I got this one. Lasted maybe a month before it started randomly disconnecting from my Xbox, never had this problem. It always seems to be at the worst possible time too, mid fight in a game. Then it takes around 40 seconds to actually light up and reconnect even when pressing the button. I will be making a claim on it to get a replacement. The 4 stars is because other than these weird problems this is the best controller to ever exist. Buttons feel amazing, very responsive even with Bluetooth connection instead of wired. In mortal kombat 1, the D pad on this thing is top of the line and can not be beaten. If you’re a mk1 player you NEED this controller.

Great controller, but insurance is necessary.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality of the gamepad is unbeatable. So unbeatable that I’ve opted to replace 3 different ones now (buying the insurance each time) because the button receivers on these eventually go bad. My first one lasted me around 8 months before the RB receiver went bad and started failing intermittently. Second one lasted me about 8 months before a faulty LB receiver went bad and it had to be replaced. My third one lasted around 6 months before the left stick button’s receiver went bad and had to be replaced. Overall - awesome controller and I refuse to use any other game pad… just make sure you buy the insurance. Hopefully a series 3 will bring receivers that last the long haul a bit better.

Worth the upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is all about quality manufacturing, improved controls, and heightened sensitivity – perfect for gamers who love to play a lot. Plus, the charging dock is a really cool bonus. Sure, it's a tad pricey, but in my opinion, the quality you get makes it totally worth it.

Good improvement over the original but....
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The new Gen 2 Elite controller is much better constructed over the original Gen 1 Elite especially with the grips and new metal bumper frame but, with my new Elite out of box, the right and left stick feel slightly loose and the right stick is already suffering from a downwards stick drift and it hasn't even been broken in yet. Good controller regardless but, check the controller to be sure of any potential out of box issues.

Best controller ever!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the best controller I’ve ever used! I own the first edition of this controller also, but this one is much better. Feels better ergonomically, I love the rubber grips that wrap around the handles. The triggers also have a texture to them which is nice. My favorite feature is the internal rechargeable battery - lasts 40 hours on one charge...phenomenal! It’s certainly spendy, but worth it in my opinion. It will also work with next gen consoles
