Customers are saying
Customers are delighted by the controller's exceptional overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. Users also frequently praise the device's comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality tactile feel. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the durability of the buttons and bumpers, as well as the early onset of stick drift. Despite these technical frustrations and the premium price point, many still consider it a top-tier gaming accessory.

Decent
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great bang for your buck compared to a highly priced Scuf. Having the ability to remap the back paddles to any button is amazing. I play COD mainly and the only downside is the left thumb stick(L3) and RB doesn’t respond after constant use. Yes you can remap the back paddles to one of those two inputs. But I don’t think the wear should be as quick as it is.

Nice controller, but better off buying new.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a really nice controller, however you should definitely get this new with the warranty. I got one used, but after reading about some complaints of issues after a few months I decided to get a new one instead. It really helps, but takes getting used to.

Now I am in control.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this as an open box item and I was completely surprised that, when I unboxed it, it was completely brand new! Excellent price for what I got, which was about $100 less than MSRP

Good controller beware of bumpers
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best controller out there for competitive gamers. You have to buy the protection plan because your RB button will be having an input delay or even no input response at all. So if you're okay with replacing the controller so often then this is for you.

'A' button has major sticking issue
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The overall feel is good, it doesn't feel cheap. But the A button sticking prevented me from gracefully climbing into my favorite camping spot in Modern Warfare. It sticks down every 4 to 5 presses. Now sold out so swapping isn't even an option, might just upgrade the grips on my elite 1 and push it back into service. Revisit this controller when the kinks have been worked out.

It WAS great.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Yes, this is a great controller, but it still has insidious defects. Purchased in July of 2020, and now 5 months in, the left joystick drifts constantly. After further research I discovered that Microsoft has begun manufacturing a “improved” version of the same controller (model FST-00008) versus the FST-00001 version. The model I received is the latter. Most people who have purchased this seem to be experiencing the same issues. I have the Best Buy protection plan, and intend on replacing this controller when Best Buy gets it back into stock, and am hoping for the newer version.

Insure this product or dont buy it ANYWHERE
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All of the pro elite series 2 xbox controllers have issues. I have owned for different controllers and always seem to develop a problem with either LB or RB about 4-5 months in. To be totally honest, unless you have a total tech membership this product is not worth the money. If you would like to follow through with a purchase just ensure you get insurance for it because it will definitely give you problems within a short time.

I am barely going to use this
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the pieces being held magnetically and the Bluetooth capability. The option of easily switching between devices (PC to Xbox vice versa) with the push of the same button twice is something that I never thought I needed.
