Top tier high-end Elite controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the most part has worked exceptionally well since it was purchased. As of right now, a couple of the buttons are getting sticky like something is in them, but I've been careful about keeping it clean so I'm not sure why. Other than that, it's been a great purchase and would recommend / buy another if I need it to.

Worth the upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So many more features than the gen 1. I find it way more comfortable to hold, it’s lighter, and the thumb sticks feel 10x better. You can also adjust how stiff the thumb sticks are. I tried the one my sister had and knew I needed the upgrade.

HAS SO MUCH POTENTIAL.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Build appears to be sturdy and quality at first use. Paddles are responsive and made of metal so they won’t break. HOWEVER….. the left thumb stick has been known to get loose while in use. And the I started experiencing stick drift after 4 months of use. I recommend always buying the replacement warranty because you will need to use it.

Great controller But $$$$
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I picked up this $180 controller because I wanted to see if Microsoft really made it better than the first one, and I must say after having it for a week of long gaming sessions I can say this: Amazing controller but Microsoft did not need to add the extra $30 to the price tag.

Big fan!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I mean this is a no brainer. This is the best XBOX controller on the market. Weight is right, feel is solid, options and attachments are easy to plug and play. They fixed the rubber grip issue from series 1 controller.

As advertised
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is an elite 2 without all the extras. Great for replacing broken elite 2. Im not a big warranty person but i highly recommend getting the warranty. Saves you about $70 (if you buy the warranty again after turning in broken controller) and saves you the headache and stress of getting a new controller. If you start getting stick drift, button stop working, controller stops charging, battery stops holding a charge, etc, take it to bestbuy, redeem the warranty, they give you the new controller, buy the warranty on it for $50, and you are back to gaming. (Warranty is 2 years, its a new controller)

Elite FTW
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller feels amazing and paddles are very nice. Only issue is the left stick. I’d suggest the protection plan if your left stick starts to break or drift. Only reason for the 4 star but best buys coverage is great.
