Shame
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Drifting issue (of course). For the amount of money and the warranty from Microsoft and process of trying to return it its obvious not worth it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from MicrosoftOutreachTeam

$180 dollar paperweight
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Poor quality. This is my 2nd elite series 2 controller. $60 dollar geek squad plan purchased with original controller. Returned controller because the right bumper stopped working and the trigger lock for the right trigger broke off so I returned it and got another one, paid another $60 for geek squad plan and the thumb sticks literally unscrew themselves while you’re gaming. Don’t waste your money

No, I would not recommend this to a friend No comparison to origional Elite controller.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Buy a regular controller. This is yet another Microsoft RIP OFF. No comparison to Elite series 1 controller. Works best as a default, any attempt to customize settings only makes game play worse.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendOpen Box Is Trash!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased the “open box” version in store twice. Both were marked as “excellent condition” with all accessories included. The first one was missing the charging block. The second one has a broken right bumper. I’m 0 for 2. They’re doesn’t seem to be any quality control and they’re definitely not tested before being resold. Beware of the open box controllers!!
