Best Controller for the money
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great controller, but the one issue it has is drift. The last one I owned had drift, and was unfixable. Bought the same one, as the feel of this one is the best. Hopefully it lasts longer than my previous one.

Could be a great controller but...
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller is comfortable and bit heavy. Not over whelming heavy but feels substantial in the hands. The case and components are of good quality and allows for much customization. The main issue I had with the controller was the input and joy stick drifting. It feels as if there was something causing the A or B button to stick. It makes it unusable at time. Im sure if it were to be taken apart and cleaned, it would likely work fine but for a controller that retails at $180, you would hope these problems did not exist.

Amazing Product and Amazing Customer Service
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this controller almost everyday and absolutely loves how it feels in my hands. I have used this type of controller for about 3 years an unfortunately the only reason I bought a new one was because my puppy got ahold of it and chewed it. As soon as it happened my wife and I went to Best Buy to get one the first one didn’t have any in stock so we called and ordered it from a different location on our way there just to make sure we didn’t miss out on getting the exact one that I wanted. Best Buy answered really quickly and helped me order it over the phone in less than 3 minutes. As soon as we arrived they already had it waiting in online orders even though we were only about 5 minutes away after we finalized the order.

Best controller for competitive gaming
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Is really good controller for competitive gaming but unfortunately the sticks do get stick drift after daily use. It will give about 4 months before you need another controller. But because extended warranty that kind solve the issue if you have the extra money to afford it.

Premium feel.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have for a long time been very displeased with XBOX controller that were manufactured by Microsoft. You ended up paying a premium price for a product that was anything but. They would malfunction after a marginal amount of time, and even physically break with little wear and tear. The Elite 2 is proving to be a step in the right direction. The premium build quality and vast amount of customizable features make for a very well made, and well conceived controller. USB-C or wireless charging by way of a docking station that is provided are great additions to improve the value. The down side is really the idea that it takes over $150 of a price tag for Microsoft o provide a quality controller option. But at least it's a pretty good one.
