    Best controller out on the market. If you play FPS games you have to get this. USB Type C charging and comes with awesome case and can charge while in the case. Bluetooth as well. Honestly I can not think of a con on this controller its just great all around but maybe the price but I would say its worth it.

    As most Xbox controllers, stick drift comes fast and is unavoidable. Outside of that, it’s pretty good

    As an owner of the first Elite, this one is better so far, in every way. I do however, prefer the old way of swapping batteries, vs the built in battery in the long run, fearing not being able to change batteries. Other than that, it's excellent. I have so far, had none of the issues mentioned in other reviews. Excellent controller!

      Hey Glenn,

      Thank you for sharing how much you're loving your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2! The internal rechargeable battery is designed to hold its full charge for over 2 years with minimal degradation, however we encourage anyone who experience issues with it to contact Xbox Support.

    Excellent remote I love the buttons on the bottom or the paddles. That’s what you wanna call them makes it easier. You don’t have to let go stick.

    Very nice hand feel, reserve side buttons a nice touch. Feels good in hand even after a couple hours of sweaty palms. Comes with extras like a charger, but not really needed.

    Bought this for our Grandson. He seems to think it is great! Just what he wanted and says it’s so much easier and more maneuverable than his old controller.

    The elite 2 controller is an amazing product except for the fact that the right joystick had drift in it the 2nd day I used it. If you're unfamiliar with the term "drift", when referring to a controller, it means "a joystick that inputs movement even when you're not touching it".

      Hi there,

      We're sorry that there's an issue with thumbstick drift on your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. If it's still within Best Buy's return period, we recommend exchanging it for a new one. If that's not possible, please reach out to Xbox Support for assistance under the controller's 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,

    Love this thing. A little expensive but I think worth it. Recently got into gaming on my PC. Might buy an Xbox someday, if I do, I can use it with that, too. Comes in a case and has a wireless charger, and a selection of button types if you don't like the standard ones.
