New design same old problems
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had warranty replacement from Microsoft twice. First time the buttons stuck, Second time stick drift. I Love the controller when it works. If you don't mind wired controller go with the Razer Wolverine. Button placement on the back is easier to hit and you have an extra 2 buttons. ABXY buttons are super clucky like hitting keyboard buttons. I'll say having the extra top button makes pinging enemies really easy in Battle Royale games.

Love it even after it broke
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this controller for a few weeks and have learned to love this thing. I use it for first person shooters and have had great success in using the extra buttons. Unfortunately my left stick has went out and now has constant stick drift. I am a little sad because I am returning the controller even though there is no stock to get another one. I know this is a fluke so I will definitely be getting another Elite 2 controller. I just wished the first one worked

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great controller, you will not be disappointed with this purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend Great controller. Only minor build quality issues.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As far as the use of this controller after 5 years of using the elite controllers I can't even go back to using a regular controller. I love this controller. On the other hand I've replaced my controller 3 times due to the left or right bumper not working after a period of time. My advice make sure to pay for the best buy coverage and replace it as needed.
