Awesome controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The series 2 has several slight improvements over the original elite controller. Together these improvements add up to the best controller I’ve ever owned. The only negative about this controller is the price.

Controller
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing really negative to say about this controller. Feels very premium. I will say it's hard to avoid stick drift, so get the warranty if available.

Best Xbox Controller
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you play xbox and you're still using a regular controller drop the money and buy and elite controller. It costs more but will last and you'll never want to go back. Great controller.

Elite 2
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best controller I’ve ever used. The LB on the first gen elite controller gave out on multiple occasions so I’m hoping that doesn’t happen with this one, but as of now no complaints whatsoever.
