Still rocking my gen 1 Elite for about 5 years now and it still work perfectly fine. I find it hard to play on a regular controller now. Now that I was able to find a series x @ target I think it’s time to upgrade to the Elite 2

I loved the way this controller felt in-hand, premium and good quality; The trigger settings were great, the paddles were interchangeable (short/long) and felt great, but I just could not get used to the offset Joysticks. The ABXY buttons needed to be a bit more shallow, when I pressed them sometimes it would not engage unless I made sure to push it instead of tapping them, so I ended up returning it.

Paddles should be standard on all controllers. Love the trigger depth options on the elite.

I actually love this controller. It feels premium as well. Has a one year no questions asked, for the most part, replacement waraunty as well. I have 2 of these and my gf also has one. Got it in a bundle for the Series X and assumed I’d never use it, but ended up loving it.

I have had mine since it launched and have had absolutely zero issues. Like anything, I think if you treat your stuff well it’ll hold up long term. Hope you enjoy your controller!!

I have one of these they are great but I will tell you they start to wear down on you after a year or so but overall I would recommend this controller. The battery inside of the controller lasts 40 hours fully charged which is outstanding.

I have my elite series 2 since almost two years. no issues, no stick drift, no rubber coming off the controller. nice weight ... I just love it

[abrahamalviarez]

The best thing about this controller is the soft rubber, it's not too sticky or too hard, it's just the right texture. really happy with my purchase, this vid helped me to invest in this controller.

So close to 2k! I'm here all the way brother!

[tskvvsjxx]

absolute beauty of a controller. Love your unboxing vids man!!

[SleepyDadlife]

I just bought this based on your reviews. I certainly do not regret it so far. Thank you.

[aldogarcia]

I loved the Lego Darth Vader, it matches with the controller 😂😂😂

[trent]

I plan on buying one tomorrow, saw alot of reviews about how many problems it has and also how good it is. I plan on getting the 2 year warranty just for safe measure because this controller is just to cool to pass up.

[DIESTAR]

I have the elite series 2 and love it tbh. I find my self using the shortest trigger stop option a lot for halo infinite and swapping my d-pads out for killer instinct. Two things I hate honestly though… it has no share button which I use way more than I thought I would and I wish more colors were available for this controller. I also had heard there were durability issues which I haven’t gone through at all and hopefully it stays that way.

[GitSumGaming]

Would you recommend getting a series X controller over the elite? I had a ps5 controller on PC it just doesn’t want to cooperate at all. The aim assist in games don’t even work

[roderickmorales]

Hey cool video and unboxing! I would really like to pick one up for my Series X, but I am seeing a lot of hate and people having lots of issues with the buttons, bluetooth connectivity, drifting, etc. is it really that bad?

[robertbuchanan]

Keep crushing it brother.

Picking me one up Monday from Best Buy can’t wait 💪🏽

[TheFrenchy]

I have an elite v 1.0 . The internal battery is a real big minus for me.
I use only rechargeable batteries with my controller. Sadly... you can't play anymore with "normal" controller if you like this controller.
Too bad we can't have back pads, right out from the box, for the "normal " controller !!

[burgjan]

I am planing on buyin this but i am worried about ABXY buttons. Do you have to press deeper for them to engage ? I hate that
