Be Cautious or Get that WARRANTY BUT YESSS
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My favorite controller EVER! Sadly with the biggest flaw being it falls apart pretty fast. Take very good care of it or make sure to get warranty.

Sold controller
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was pleasantly surprised with how much heavier and sturdier this controller feels in comparison to the standard Xbox controllers. I like the metal d-pad and rear triggers.

Terrible quality control, unresponsive buttons
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are two main issues with this controller that I believe every single controller suffers from, just due to the design. First, unresponsive face buttons. If you're the type of person who grazes over the buttons at an angle with a lighter touch then I can guarantee you will have problems, especially with the Y and A buttons. I have yet to come across a Series 2 Elite that does not have this problem. Out of the dozen or so that I've played with literally every single one had this problem. If you're more of a masher type then you probably will not encounter this, this is an issue specifically for players with a lighter touch. I do not have this issue on the Series 1 Elite or the stock OEM controller. Second, this controller has massive dead zones, and it's a hardware issue not software. No amount of tweaking in the Accessories app will solve this problem, it's clearly hardware related. People who aren't sensitive to dead zones may not notice, but if you rely on precise analog sticks for shooters and such then this controller might drive you nuts. Also, no adjusting the tension in the analog sticks does not help. Many people are having all sorts of other problems, like faulty shoulder buttons, sticky face buttons, etc but I believe the two issues I outlined above are a result of the poor design and will plague literally every single controller, it's just that many people are button mashers or press the buttons at a 90 degree angle so they don't notice. I'm amazed more people aren't complaining about dead zones because that too is an issue I've seen on literally every single Series 2 I've touched, I guess I'm more sensitive to it than others. I absolutely do not expect Microsoft to resolve these problems. Their terrible 90 day limited warranty is a testament to how they don't stand by their own "pro" level products. Even Microsoft doesn't trust these controllers, why should you?

New series, same problems
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this against my better judgment after being burned by a series 1 controller and two warranty replacements thereof a few years ago. The right thumb stick on this unit was abnormally loose straight out of the box, and, after some test driving and adjustment, I found that the unit has major stick drift that cannot be adjusted out. While there's a good chance a replacement unit will give me better luck, I strongly suspect that the series 2 suffers from the same potentiometer defect that series 1 did and thus any replacement I get will eventually start drifting, too. I'll be returning this and looking into other controller options.

Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great performance but wears out quickly. This is our second controller like this and it only lasts about a year. However, it performs much better than the standard controller. I would recommend this product but I would also recommend purchasing the extended warranty with it.
