Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    Careful buying Open Box

    Bought an Elite 2 on a whim because it was priced well, being "Open Box Excellent." Upon using it I realized that the "Y" face button wouldn't register when pressed from the lower part of it, even if the button was pushed all the way down. Also noticed the "P3" paddle was loose compared to the other 3 and didn't register or make a click noise like the rest. The look, feel, handle and customizability this controller are all incredible and I like the versatility of running wired or wireless and not needing batteries, but I have yet to try this controller bought "new." I hope the face button issue was more a 1 off defect and not issues with quality control.

    Had to return the controller after I found one of the paddles wasn't functioning. This was not fun to deal with of course, but the exchange process was easy, and the controller feels great to use for console gaming!

    Purchased this controller 11/16/19, I use it mostly for PC gaming when playing my 3rd person adventure / action games like Nioh, Sekiro, and Dark Souls 1-3. Sometime in May the back switch to lock the triggers broke off, strange since I never use it to lock my triggers. This week 6/15/20, my right bumper broke, it now sticks and does not make clicking sound anymore. I do not game that much since I have a 10 hour a day job, I am also involved in online classes for my degree and I am a father. So I normally game about 2 hours every other day. The controller has not even lasted a year for me yet. I feel for the price of the product it needs to be able to last longer, I am not a hardcore 6 to 8 hours a day gamer.

    Solid replacement for elite series 2 but i wouldn't buy without the add ons. Parts relative to the more expensive version seem plastic which means it will likely break earlier.

    Wireless issues on PC

    It's a good controller, but when using it for PC, the connection is unstable and would disconnect constantly. Using a wire fixes the issue but if you wanted a wireless controller this isn't it.

    I love this controller. Soo good. I use the extra back buttons and tabs all the time. Makes gaming so much better now. Also the new d-pad should be standard now on new Xbox controllers it’s that good.
