Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options, along with its comfortable feel and good weight. However, a significant concern among users is the prevalence of stick drift and issues with button quality, particularly with the bumpers and A button. The price is also a point of hesitation for some.

    The best controller a gamer can buy. Once you get used to it and figure out good button mapping ( I recommend A,B,X,Y, your thumb never leaves the joystick so you can easily multitask) you will never want to use a normal controller again

    The right bumper goes bad, this is my 3rd elite 2. I get a year out of them on average. At least now it's a bit less $ without all the triggers and sticks of which I have several sets of. Sending them to Microsoft for repair is a nightmare, and they send you someone else's they fixed. I'd rather save the time and aggravation and just buy a new one.

    Bad idea to buy open box

    I purchased one "Open Box - Excellent". It was extremely dirty, it had food crumbs, dirt and grime stuck in every nook and cranny. It had scratches, and a damaged cord. It did not have the original packaging, overall it was fair at the most. Fortunately I was able to gather a little extra cash and just exchange it for a brand new one. I would recommend to never purchase anything open box. The brand new one is top notch. Definitely worth the 5 stars

    Purchased as a birthday gift for my son. He loves it. It is a bit of a learning curve with the additional toggles on the bottom of the controller but a very good purchase.
