Best Controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is by far the best one. I have a Series 1 and I like it but, the grip portion will come off. But so far I have been using and making the Joy Stick adjustment and it is awesome and you feel and see the difference on the accuracy of the movement. I like the fact that I can charge it and use it for 40 hrs, I haven’t tested it the 40 hrs, but I like being connected when I play FPS.The back paddles feel better at their current location, better than the series 1. Let see after time how this controller operates.

Good Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very good controller. I only give it 3 stars because the A button doesn't work correctly. I can take 2-3 times of pressing it in order for it to work. It was that way straight out of the box. The controller is still overpriced. However, this controller is far superior to the basic Xbox controllers.

Amazing usability and superb handling

No stick drift, infinite customization (both physical and digital),and snappy response time.

THE FUTURE OF CONTROLLERS IS HERE
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got it for my best friend. But I also have one and honestly there’s no going back after using one. Not just for the paddles but just the overall feel and attention to detail. It’s got a nice weight to it as well and I dig it.

Great to Replace an old Elite Series 2 controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is perfect for anyone who already has an elite series 2 controller and is looking to replace their old one. You can use the old attachments on this new one and and it feels literally the same. So far no issue and price is fair compared to the normal elite series 2 controller.

Great controller.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller. Because of the button mapping and paddles I was able to greatly improve response times in some games. Played numerous house and very very very minimal stick drift. The elite series controller are always my go to. Some say it’s a little heavy but to me I like the weight and doesn’t seem cheap.

Xbox elite 2 controller

Best, worst controller's.. Love - Hate
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is literally the best line of controllers.. The weight, the feel, the functionality.. AMAZING!! I love the elite series on what they should deliver. 2 Star rating is because i have 3 Elite series 1 controllers that all have common issues. (Drift, bumper, peeling grip) I had read a lot of these things were addresses with the Series 2.. Nope.. Still a hot steamy pile of crap.. Purchased in October and this has the worst case of drift I've ever had.. The right bumper is super sensitive, one push and it thinks it's two. The grip hasnt peeled so i guess theres a pro.. Also have the Geek Squad Protection but they have been out of stock now for like 5 months so im stuck using this or one of my normal controllers..

Definitely a step up from series 1
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great improvement from the original elite controller. The grip is extended from just the backing to the front, back, and triggers. The multi-stage trigger locks were surprisingly more helpful. The controller also has more software settings and setting “slots”. Two biggest improvements to me are the new paddles which are a bit smaller making it less cumbersome to use all four and of course the integrated rechargeable battery pack takes the cake. Definitely a top shelf controller!

Great while it lasts. Dreaded stick drift!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is amazing in every way except 1. I would think that a $200 controller would last more than a year and a half before the sticks started drifting with no way to fix. I have original XBOX 360 controllers that I still use years and years later. Those cost $60 and still work perfectly, but this super expensive (and totally worth the price for how it works... when it works) controller needs to be replaced not even 2 years after purchase. I am a middle aged man who uses this probably a quarter of what a young kid would and it always gets stored in its cradle after use, and still.... have to replace it already. This is a problem I see hundreds of videos referencing too, so it is not isolated. I hope they fix it in future generations of controllers, because everything about it is truly Elite, except its life span.
