Great but not durable
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty upset with the durability of this product. If you buy it, get the protection plan. I have had to send mine in twice already to Microsoft.

Very Dissapointing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller was a large let down for me on PC, the 4 paddles on the back of the controller only let you remap buttons and cannot be their own buttons. The software is garbage, it only lets you remap buttons when your controller is pluged in and your controller will hard disconnect whenever it is unplugged. Not worth the money at all

Too expensive, broken in under a year.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sleek controller but way too expensive, need to pay more to actually customize it and use extra triggers, and right bumper already broken in less than a year.

Unresponsive "A" button
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first Elite controller did me good and lasted 5 years before I started having sticky buttons so I decided to go with the Elite 2. After reading many negative reviews, I figured what are the chances that I'll get one too....oh boy. I played my first game and I noticed I wasn't jumping at times and yup, my "A" button was not registering. It's a hit or miss and depends on the angle if that makes sense. Really nice controller but not worth the $180. Boys and Girls please listen to the reviews. You will get a faulty controller out of the box!

Awful reliability. Base xbox controller hardware.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Expensive controller but lacking build reliability. The bumper press is registered using a flimsy piece of plastic and a very janky tactile switch setup involving an odd piece of film. Many users report having to replace switch and bumpers conatantly. Repairs are doable but then you are no longer covered by warranty. If you want a controller for pc gaming just get a ps5 controller. Returned firs

Poor quality
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have 2 of these. On the first one, the up on the left joystick doesn't work. You have to move it around in the up position to get it to move forward. The second one the left bumper started sticking and now you have to press it really hard to get it to work. You'd think for $180 you'd get a quality controller, but it's just a regular junk controller with some extra buttons and grips.
