Good overall
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good overall but the first one I got had a big dead zone in the stick. This is possible with any controller. Also prefered the size of the back paddles from the Elite 1 controller.
I would recommend this to a friendGood but heavy.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like this controller but it was too heavy for me. After years of using a Scuf with no rumbler packs, I did not like the weight. Too bad because I was looking forward to using this controller more.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat All Around Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid controller for playing any game all day long. The interchangeable thumbstick and paddle shapes allows you to customize the controller any way you like. A must have for shooter games. Also come with a great carrying case.

Iffy for price
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller but it has a problem with drifting with the left and right stick
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Nice controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a really good controller for this price I love the fact you can change the thumbsticks out
I would recommend this to a friendgood Hardware, SERIOUSLY FLAWED software.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The hardware is good. But the Software needs SERIOUS work... Connecting to this controller is a nightmare if you expect it to work seamlessly between different connection types. If you have paired the controller with Windows, it's fine. But if you need to configure the buttons using the Windows App, you need to connect it with USB. And doing so, pretty much deletes the wireless connection. you will have to delete the controller from your Bluetooth Devices, and then re-pair EVERY SINGLE FREAKING TIME you do this. Seriously flawed.

Gaming
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really great for competitive shooters. Love the overall feel of the sturdiness and high quality build.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Stick drift
Terrible stick drifting issues.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When the controller works as intended, it is fantastic. I am on my third controller now; the first Microsoft was replaced due to losing connection randomly, the second I replaced due to stick drift. Now on my third, just outside of warranty, the controller has again developed terrible stick drift on the left stick rendering the controller useless. The stick drift is so bad you can not navigate menus!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Great for all games!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With the toggles on the back, it frees up your thumbs for all movement. Great for FPS games, but also find it useful for Elder Scrolls Online, Smite, etc... Highly recommend for all gamers, don’t have to be a pro to use this controller.

I would recommend this to a friendXbox pro controller white

I would recommend this to a friendStill the best controller for xbox
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never had issues with these, this is my second one and would recommend to anyone especially if u need separate settings for different games
I would recommend this to a friendGreat follow up to Series 1
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Elite Series 2 is a great follow up to the original elite controller. Microsoft has seemed to listen to all the Series 1 feedback and improve upon that. I didn't think it were possible, but the Series 2 feels even more solid than the original.
