Perfect
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a pc and a ps5. The reason why that is important is because the ps5 controller dies really fast and has rough support on pc BUT the elite 2 controller has a really long battery life, so much so that i forget it needs to charge. It also interfaces seamlessly with my computer and has plenty of customability with profules for whatever game i am playing at the time

great, even with stick drift
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this is an amazing controller my only issue is the stick drift. I have bought two of these in a used/ newish condition and both has a left stick drift. there are ways to fix it on your own and if that the case this controller works great

Elite for cash to burn
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller feels comfy in your hand more so than v1. Customize it your away . It feels smaller and I love the built I charger post as well. I would have felt more warm and fuzzy if price was a bit less.

Always Good, Not Quite Great
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these controllers but despise the fact that the common issues have still not been addressed. Left bumper has failed me on 4 of these controllers. Battery life is excellent, weight is great, paddles and customizability is fantastic. Just the freaking bumpers that always seem to crap out. Oh and stick drift has always been a problem. Given the price and the fact that pretty much everything else about it is solid, I would expect the bumpers to hold up better.

Great controller with one issue
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best controller out there, but be sure to get a service plan. I've had a few Elites and all but one have had an issue where one of the bumpers stops responding. Other than that it's by far the best controller for PC and for Xbox, obviously.

Good, but buy warranty
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The elite controller feels more solid/heavier than a standard xbox controller and has more attachments for buttons/triggers which helps in a variety of games. I do recommend getting the warranty though because I had issues with my first one not connecting correctly and disconnecting randomly. My 2nd one has fared better but the nubs on the back that switches the tension fell off within the year. Other than that the battery life is good and it charges via USB-C.

Highly recommend!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely amazing controller, i made the switch from a regular xbox controller to this one and i an not disappointed. The quality is so nice and love that it's so customizable. Does take some getting used to the petals on the back but once you do, game changer! Force yourself to play with the petals and youll grt used to them in no time.

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had an elite controller before this but it broke so I got this and swapped over my paddles. Everything with the old controller is compatible with the new one. Only difference i noticed was it was a bit lighter which was great because the older one was very heavy compared to a typical controller. Still had a great feel to it though and felt like quality.

Highest quality controller I've ever had
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had recently bought the Xbox elite controller as well as the PlayStation Pro and the Xbox elite controller is far superior in quality, feel, and it came with an awesome (also high quality) magnetic charging unit that you can dock the controller on when not in use. I don't want to use any controller other than the Xbox elite- which I use for my PC. This luxury controller truly feels as such. 10/10. Don't hesitate to buy.

Really good controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good controller and comfortable grip. Only issue is that I didn't have the replacement parts that it came with like it sated on the box. but overall quite happy with it, plus really long battery life. I only had to charge maybe once or twice since I bought

Solid controller, weirdness with the warranty…
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had bought a refurbished series 2 originally, geek squad refurbished. It was $99 dollars, and I bought the 2 year warranty. When I went to exchange it after mine had gotten pretty run down, I was told I would need to pay $100+ to get another. They tried to up sell me a brand new one, which I did not appreciate, nor did I see anything about that when I bought it. They ended up getting me an open box one so I only had to pay like $20, but they should really be more open about the warranties. They said they “didn’t have any” geek squad refurbished ones, even though that’s the store I bought the original from. If you offer a warranty on a product, then you should be able to replace the product if you have a warranty, no more, no less than the original. It’s a great controller, probably best on the market but there have always been stuck drift and button issues over time. Most button issues can be fixed by popping it open and hitting them with some rubbing alcohol, but the stick drift is tough. Best way to avoid getting it in the first place, is DO NOT use the sticks on the tightest setting. Keep them loose, and it will last way longer.

Great quality that doesn’t hold up over time.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller has great quality although its durability tends to present stick drift after only a few months. I have tried other controllers such as the new turtle beach elite controller and this is far superior for the price, however, unless you are willing to return the controller after six months for a refurbished one or buy a kit to repair this yourself it will almost always get drift relatively soon. I had a series 1 and it was amazing after years of use. I have had 4 series two and the controllers always have issues with drift or the bumpers stop working correctly. These have been reduced in price recently without all of the extras, however, a regular controller will get the job done for half the price.
