    At first I was afraid to buy it because ive read reviews prior to buying it about how there was controller drift. However I received the controller yesterday there was absolutely no drift. For the joysticks, it may take some time to get used to because the grips are so strong and if you have been using a normal controller for about 5 months prior to buying this, it may take a few days to get used to. Make sure to keep the tension in the middle or the beginning if you play fortnite and also make sure to watch youtube videos on the controller before you buy this.

      Hey Pani,

      Thank you for sharing your experience with your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. We're confident that once you've had a chance to get used to its grip and features, it may be difficult to go back to a standard controller. Your suggestions are excellent, too. We hope you win a lot of online matches with it.

      Happy gaming,
      Chuck

    I bought an openbox controller. I'm not sure I'd pay the full $180 price for one of these, but the interchangable thumbsticks and magnetic D pads are a cool idea. Charges with any USB - C charger. That's nice.

    I have used the elite2 since it came out. This new version without all the accessories included is such a great option for someone like me who wears through about every 2 years. Not important, but it’s my favorite color and that’s always a plus!

    I had the original series 2 for a long time and used it daily without any issues, it eventually wore out as all controllers do and then this was released, so I decided to get it to replace my old one. I absolutely love it and highly recommend it over any off brand Xbox controllers especially if you already have the accessories for it and if not you can get ones in different colors for cheap on amazon.

    I always like elite controller too. It has its faults if you press down too much on leftstick stick drift after 3 months of hard gaming only. When I say hard gaming no Job I always buy the two-year warranty because I use it every three months. I wish they would make the sticks out of titanium or something.
