Customers are saying

They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    This controller is very customizable. It is a very good no lag controller. I highly recommend this controller. The only complaint is that I sometimes hit the bumper when using the trigger. Maybe they will fix this by the Elite 3

    This is my first elite v2 purchase. I owned the original elite and it started having drifting issues so I purchased another one but I added the extended warranty just in case this one has the same issue.

    Overall controller is the same as Elite series 2, the only difference is the build quality is a little cheaper and the accessories dont come with this one.

    Good controller but 2 months in the RB stopped working. Seems this is a pretty common issue with these controllers. Not worth the price.

    Open box saved me over $80 and the controller was as good as new, not a single part missing. Save your money, buy open box.

    $180 controller with some cheap components

    This controller feels extremely nice, feels very well built. You must buy the protection plan because it will break. In a sample size of 3, all three have broken in less than six months each. Left analog stick drift on one, the headphone jack on another, and the left bumper fell out on another. This is not from hard use at all, they haven’t been thrown dropped etc. For being 3x the price of the standard controller this one should have higher quality components.

    Great controller when it works, I’ve gone through 4 of them because of wear and tear. Within 6 months i have to get another one, definitely buy warranty if you’re getting this controller.

    I use the paddle buttons on the back of the Elite controllers for "A" and "B" buttons. This makes it easier to move and look around while jumping in games. The Series 2 feels better built than the first version and I like the charging dock.
