Great Build, Awful QC
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You are essentialy taking a risk buying an Elite Series 2, here are the things that may happen. 1. Triggers or buttons not working out of the box 2. Stick drift may develop 3 months later 3. The controller will work just fine Other than that, this controller is amazing when it works properly. The build is very premium compared to the regular controllers, quality control is awful. I would recommend the controller, be prepared to replace it fast.

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.

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.

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.

Better version.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid controller. Like the new adjustments to the joysticks and the 3 adjustments for the triggers. Feels sturdier than the v1. Has connectivity issues. May just be a bug with the new xbox. Overall its a great buy if you are serious about gaming or just like to adjust the controls.

Improved quality and capability
||Posted .

I repaid his hard work and dedication to his college studies with this top of the line controller. He is extremely happy with it.

Best controller on the market
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Truly the greatest controller ever designed. Weighs 2 to 3 times more than the other controller but when it comes to things I handle yhey have to survive usage. This controller is durable, effective, has trigger locks and multiple button presses

Good controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller with long lasting battery. You never have to worry about batteries with the long lasting lithium battery. Only lasted me about 6 months before one of the bumpers stopped working. Going to exchange it for a new one soon

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.
