Pros

It's the first xbox controller i've ever used that intermittently drops out. The xbox accessories software on windows also allows you to customize any button on the controller to do the effect of any other button. This has lasted me about a year so fa... Read More

This controller is an upgraded version of the previous model, the xbox elite series 1. It comes in the usual elite packaging. It depends if people would be okay with knowing it's the cheaper version, and owning it.

Cons

Magnetic thumb sticks just seem like a goofy idea. They cheap out on the bumpers (lb and rb) and it's noticeable. Stick drift starts happening at about 6 month of owning.

Packaging, refurbishing, and then selling as a new conditioned product isn't what's supposed to happen. Horrible packaging and the box stank.

Quality

Feels very well made and the customizable aspect is nice.

Alot of customizations to be had and all great quality

Bought back over 6 months ago and have had very good luck with it not developing stick drift like the original.

If this controller is available at a discounted price, i would advise investing in some form of protection in case it stops working.

Shipping

We received it before my sons bday on the 12th.

Packaging/appearance

It’s definitely worth the money and everything is perfect the only thing i didn’t like was the day of my package arrived it was... Read More

The packaging is good, charging dock is convenient and you can charge with the dock while in its case - but if you do get the a... Read More

Got this to use with my laptop and it works way better than the standard xbox controller.

I'd argue today that there's no reason to buy this controller anymore unless you specifically are an xbox gamer as so many good... Read More

Compared to the scuff controller, i think this one is better overall.
