    Buy a regular controller. This is yet another Microsoft RIP OFF. No comparison to Elite series 1 controller. Works best as a default, any attempt to customize settings only makes game play worse.

    For an item that is half priced of the whole system. This is absolutely not worth it. * Brand new item broke within a couple of weeks. (Replaced) * Open box item, also not functional. * I was advices to get this remote as original is wildly inferior.

    It was a perfect Christmas gift, love that you can actually set the setting to the sensitivity on the thumb knob, it came with different magnets and options

    Purchased the “open box” version in store twice. Both were marked as “excellent condition” with all accessories included. The first one was missing the charging block. The second one has a broken right bumper. I’m 0 for 2. They’re doesn’t seem to be any quality control and they’re definitely not tested before being resold. Beware of the open box controllers!!

    Purchased few months ago online as a “open box certified inspected” worded perfectly to give buyers ease of mind upon purchasing. Few months down the road remote fails was told to go threw manufacture and was told when I purchased warranty was almost expired 150.00 down the drain NEVER AGAIN.

      Hello there,

      We're sorry that there's an issue with drift on your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft so if it's still within the warranty period we recommend reaching out to Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    So far so good. Only have had the controller for about a week but all the buttons works, charging cradle inside the case is awesome, fits like a glove

    Its on pricier side but absolutely worth for the money spent on it. The extra triggers help a lot and it feels sturdier then regular xbox controllers.

    Pricey but worth it for FPS and and other games where quick triggers are needed or want more control with the use of paddles.
