Good
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this for my brother and he’s enjoyed using it. Compared to the first model it’s lasted longer (the triggers tend to drift). I also bought one for myself and my bumpers went bad rather quickly but ever since i replaced them they’ve worked fine.

Great features
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the durability and easy adjustments but its a bit heavy. Not too bad for the price. I just wish the bottom paddles were placed differently since I'm used to playing on a Scuf. I find it too easy to accidentally press the paddles with how I grip the controller. Over all a great controller!

Very nice
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ever since being able to afford one, I have always used these. The reason for the four-star is that I know in six-seven months I will need top use the warranty support for stick drift or a broken bumper. The reason why not three or lower, I have total rewards and BestBuy is good with replacement controllers.

Almost a necessity
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second series 2 elite. So i advise being careful, because the joystick can be prone to drifting. Other than that it feels wonderful in the hands. It gives an extra level of precision and feedback. That once you've gotten used to it there is no going back.

Finally a controller thank doesn’t keep breaking
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you’ve had issues with the left thumb-stick breaking repeatedly, this controller is for you. I think they use better parts for the Elite controller because it has held up a lot better than the standard Xb1 controller. I love the texture added to the palm area. The only downside about this item is the price but I guess you get what you pay for.

Must Buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my weapon, there are many like it but this one is mine! I literally can’t play any game without this controller. Buy this and you’ll never play with another controller... ever. I have had this for almost 1 year and there was some very small stick drift but Microsoft sent me a new one under warranty. Recommended.

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller, love the grips and looks cool. Only complaint is it disconnects randomly. Seemingly when I’m playing zombies and then I die. Microsoft hasn’t issued a patch yet but I’d imagine it’s a software issue as it’s not a range/obstruction issue cuz I’m 5 feet from the dock/Xbox.

Improved quality and capability
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this for my adult son who always bought his own equipment since he was in High School and was proud of it. I repaid his hard work and dedication to his college studies with this top of the line controller. He is extremely happy with it.

Innovative to out of date
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think this control made back paddles mainstream and for that it has its place in history. But now there are better more reliable options on the market. If you don't need the back paddles the regular Xbox controller actually has lower (better) input latency than this controller. 7ms vs 14ms, defiantly makes a difference when playing anything online competitively. I would only buy this control for its comfort in hand factor and for playing single player games now days. Also lots and lots of QC issue with button actuation.
