For the controller being 180 I would think it would last longer before it starts having the “drift problem”

Just upgraded to this from my included xbox wireless controller, and i love it. No issues whatsoever. Definitely recommend!

This is like the 5th time i’ve purchased an elite controller and a button or bumper becomes stuck or gives stick-drift within a few months

They made the paddles smaller. I liked the feel of the larger paddles on the original elite controller. Other than that I guess it’s slightly improved in several areas. I ended up gifting it and keeping my old one.

I waited a year to buy this thing since I’d seen all the quality control reviews and decided to pull the trigger anyway in hopes that I’d win the product lottery. Sadly, no. The A and B buttons missed about 1/10 presses, the right bumper about 50% too. All right out of the box. Obviously this is going back… Keep up the good work, Microsoft!

It was a xmas present and he is a devoted xboxer so he was anxious to get to it and leave the festivities and get online!

I liked the regular Xbox controllers best . This one the metal sticks feel to heavy and mess with my aim in shooters .

The XBOX Elite controller Series One was great; stylish, sweat control, size, and most of all durability. When I compare my Elite 2 it does not hold up. The controller feels a little smaller. I have wide and the sweat a great deal when gaming. I’m not sure if the design was based on a in between for female gamers; (not saying all females have small hands); but they must have did something to the design; for it to feel smaller. The sleek new design with the back graph that is suppose to prevent sweat is no more. My hands immediately started to sweat; while playing COD. I’m a gripper.

Son says it’s a game changer. He likes that you can customize the buttons and he likes the paddles

Stick drift right off the bat, also if you press the right thumb stick hard the controller disconnects completely from my Xbox. 1/10 in quality. I thankfully bought the Best Buy warrant I just haven’t had time to bring it back in. But it’s hot garbage in the quality department.

The sense of touch is great, also is the material and controlling. However, I still need to buy an extra adapter to connect the controller, which is a little ridiculous since it is a 180 dollars product.

It does its job but didn't last long. This controller has never even lasted a year before falling apart.

Worst controller I have ever purchased. I have sent it in to Microsoft due to connectivity issue. It was sent back fixed. Now it is doing it again. I can't return it to Best Buy do to a glitch in their system. We purchased the yearly protection plan and due to this glitch they won't fix or replace.

I had the controller for 4 months before the left trigger stopped fully depressing. Microsoft was horrible to work with when trying to fix my controller.

I recently picked up the Elite Series 2 open box. The listing said it was in "Excellent" condition. Upon arrival the guy ringing me up opens the box to type serials numbers and when he opens it the whole case and controller REEKS of cigarettes. I think no worries ill lysol it down and air it out. Also, all the thumbsitcks are basically smoothed out showing a decent amount of wear and tear. More like good or fair condition, not excellent. Then the cherry on top. I get home and test the controller using the xbox accessories app. The right bumper doesnt work.... Are yall even testing your devices or giving them a quick wipe down? This is an abysmal listing and the second controller thats been listed as "excellent" but has been trashed with use. Im tempted to do a charge back for false advertising and i definitely wont be purchasing ANYTHING open box from Best Buy. The only thing this store is good for, is picking up NEW Samsung devices.

It's a little heavy but it's built so much better than Scuf or any other controllers out there. I love this controller

Probably the most dissapoit purchase i ever had, i decide to invest a little more for a “good quality” product and just they had drift and deadzone on both joysticks, i returned just 30 minutes after

Overpriced and overrated. It comes with a nice case and has a nice comfortable design but also has terrible functionality. The buttons aren’t always responsive and usually have to be pressed hard enough to register. No light tapping. I don’t play FPS games so the back buttons were useless to me. Taking this back for a refund.

X button had issues. Love the rubberized wrap around grip but returned.

If you dont want paddles and a charging station its completely fine and Worth it over the elite 2
