Customers are saying
Customers are pleased with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. They also frequently praise its comfortable grip, good weight, and responsive feel. However, a significant number of customers have reported issues with stick drift developing quickly and concerns regarding the durability of the buttons, including the bumpers. Despite some initial hesitation about the price, the positive attributes like its overall comfort and useful paddles generally contribute to a positive user experience.

Microsoft did not improve the Elite Controller
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this controller about 6 months ago, and right out of the package I noticed the buttons (mostly A and B) not registering when pressed. I ran the button registration tester in settings and about 2 out of every 10 presses were registering. I returned this controller thinking it was just bad luck, but the new one had the exact same problem. Now 3 months later the controller has developed the worst stick drift I have experienced in a controller. Really Microsoft? What an upgrade from the Elite 1, you guys really learned from that one. I will be exchanging once again when Best buy has one in stock. Truly pathetic. In no way is this review about Best buy! They are a great company to work with and really take care of you in cases like this. There is a reason Microsoft doesn't warranty their own pathetic products.

Great controller while it lasts.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We own two of these series 2 “ elite” controllers and now this is the second time both controllers have had to be replaced in the past year due to the bumpers and/or triggers failing. Prior to this we had the first elite controllers and they had to be replaced 12 times between the 2 controllers due to the same failures. It’s funny how our $60 controllers that came with our systems are still in great order and functioning properly. I don’t think we will be buying these again. It’s disappointing to know that Microsoft can make a great system but can’t produce a controller that will last. To top it all off, Buy Buy is “out of stock” because these controllers are always failing. It’s so bad that Best Buy hiked their replacement/warranty fee for this item.
