If your old elite controller is looking worse for wear but the accessories are still looking good then definitely go with this controller, its the elite controller without the accessories.

I’m currently on my third elite controller. Previous two were the gen 1’s. The rubber grips pealed off after 3 months. This gen 2 controller feels amazing, they made improvements since the original design. Don’t let the amazing exterior design fool you. Six months of owning this particular controller the right trigger stop broke. Now the trigger sticks and clicks every use. The cap for the trigger stop adjustment fell off about a month ago also. If you purchase this controller make sure you get the geek squad protection. You will easily get your money’s worth tenfold, but the hassle of sending it in or receiving a replacement might not be worth the aggravation.

Product came without a box, only the cable, controller and varios paddle / stick accessories in the protective case. The buttons were sticking. Returned as soon as I could.

Worked wonderful but after a few weeks joy stick kept drifting !!!!!

I am very disappointed. The left stick drifts after a little over 2 months. Just outside Best Buys return period ofcourse. Sure I can send it in for repair but now I'll be without a controller for weeks or months. This is a known issue with these, I wouldn't recommend buying these until they fix it. Best Buy, I hope you do what's right and let me exchange or return this even though I'm outside of the return period.

The controller is fine but make sure you look at the box went in to get a Xbox elite controller with all of the buttons on it. Dude would not let me look at the box. Thought i was gonna steal it even said im not gonna let you hold it because you may run with it. I said fine whatever bought it got home and found out he sold me the core now i have to spend even more to get the charger case, and the rest of the buttons 

Have had this a little under a year(purchased 8.17.20), used it a few times cuz it’s just my controller for whenever I’m not playing keyboard and mouse games. The paddles on the back are not comfortable at all. The controller has the worst drift I have ever seen, it goes up down, literally making my character wiggle back and forth on the screen, drift started a few days ago (4.8.21). Sadly it’s the worst gaming product I’ve ever owned. 170$ for an unusable controller. Absolute garbage.

Do not buy this. Good for first few months, but normal wear includes stick drift, stuck paddle buttons, & random disconnects. Not worth

I bought this online "open box excellent condition" and the only thing I received was the controller, everything else was missing. Had to take it to the local store and fight with them to replace it. Check your box when you get it!

This controller is no where even close to good for how much Microsoft is asking fr it. The analog sticks are not good quality and drift way too much. The same problem was for the 1st Gen and they seem to have not fix that issue.

Product was terrible got the controller that day and took it home to find the LB1 is broken

This series is defective, the Y button on these do not work. I have to exchange another defective controller again.

So far it’s been a pretty good controller, not sure it’s worth the price unless you play a ton of competitive games

To have bought two in the past five years I wouldn’t recommend it honestly $140 for Xbox controller With some interchangeable joysticks, don’t waste your money guys stick with the Xbox controller that comes with it

When this controller works its amazing but out of 3 ive recieved 2 of them had problems and even now the one ive just recieved in about 4 months the left thumb stick click stoped working.

The left stick has bad drift up and down. Had the first Elite controller and same thing happened. This one began just outside of warranty. Ridiculous for something this expensive.

I have had this for less than two months and it already has stick drift

Replaced 3 times. each time had issues with the Y and a button not being able to be pressed. stick drift out of the box. a joke for the price

Buttons stopped working in less than two months, No

Im pretty sure i got a defective unit. The Bluetooth would not connect. I tried a few fixes i found online but nothing worked. I have a ps5 controller and a couple of other xbox controllers all of them worked fine over Bluetooth. The controller feels good in the hand and its good quality. The back paddles are great. It worked fine if i plugged it in with the provided usb c cacble. But i paid almost 200 for a wireless control i expect to be able to use it without wires. Returned it. Thankfully best buy has hassle free reurns. Gotta love em.
