Revisit in a year maybe it will go from 4-5

I would recommend this to a friendBest for the hubby
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Always replace his controllers at Best Buy. If there's not one at our store (only once in 15 years) they get one from a nearby store for me right away. Hubby likes this one because it's meant to go with his PS5 and isn't a knock off.

I would recommend this to a friend Amazing Controller!!
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To be honest, i could not play xbox without this controller anymore. Once you use this controller you wont want to go back. The backpedals make gaming so much better. You can customize any button to your liking via accessories app on xbox. The only Issue i have with this controller is the triggers, after some time of use the trigger have become sticky which becomes annoying to use after a while.

Posted .Hi there,
We're thrilled that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Series 2 has enhanced your gaming! It's great to hear that you're a fan of its many customization features, too.
Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft. If your Elite 2 is still within its warranty period, we recommend contacting Xbox Support about the trigger issue here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution
Hope that helps,

#2 elite edition is a nice upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.i had issues with the rubber grip pads always coming un glued after time and thanks to the black tie warranty i was able to replace regularly!, thank you best buy! now this #2 elite edition seems well made and the rubber grips seem like they are built in! love the feel, but only time will tell if the grips will loosen up. GOT the best warranty in the business again, (just in case), Bestbuy Black tie warranty ROCKS!

Great controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent and well made controller. Definitely worth the money
I would recommend this to a friend Much better the 2nd time around
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a marked improvement over the previous model but is still without its issues. Mainly it randomly disconnects from Bluetooth while playing any game on PC. There is no rhyme or reason that I can tell, but its been a know issue since launch. There doesn't seem to be any part of Microsoft that wants to acknowledge the issue either. I've been told by their support to buy the Xbox controller wireless adapter, which in my opinion is unacceptable. For a nearly $200 peripheral that has a wireless technology built in that should allow me to play, the fix should not be to buy another $30 part. Other than that the upgrades they did to this controller are far better than before. The controller grips are one piece now so it shouldn't separate and fall apart like the last one. Also the bumper design has been retooled so the broken bumpers shouldn't be an issue anymore. Hopefully the push a firmware fix for the connection issues soon because having the controller flake out during a game is very annoying.
