    The Elite v1 was good... it had its problems! The Elite v2 has solved all the issues of the v1 and made an exceptionally designed controller! I love it!

    The controller is fantastic. I definitely can't say it's a necessity. But, it adds a new element to gaming. The adjustable controls are a great feature

    3/3 Elite controllers are defective

    I bought a Series 1 controller long after their release- after Microsoft had time to clean up its obviously defective production- and yet still received a controller that ended up with a defective RB after 2 months. This past November, I bought a Series 2. The first of which I had to return after a day because the A button would become stuck and fail to register. Now, it’s March, a whole 4 months after purchase, and the LB now is failing on the replacement. Third controller purchased; third controller defective. It’s like a $235 lottery where you spend your hard earned money on a substandard product that most likely will fail long before a standard controller would. Closing thoughts: called Elite but built petite.
