Thanks for the video! As a person with 1 hand (2nd hand is palm/thumb only) this controller has been a fantastic addition to my new dreamachine. I've always enjoyed xbox controllers as my left hand is larger so they are very comfortable. I usually use my knee to shoot or use the right trigger, if i use my right hand' i have to take away from the right thumbstick and right buttons. Man im lucky that my hand can do everything on the front right, except the R1/R2. The paddles though im not used to it alow me to not have to take away from using xyba/thumbstick. I took out the right rear paddles. This thing is premium and makes it easy for me!

thank you for sharing this information :)

This is a great & concise review. I’ve had one since the Elite Series 2 launched and it’s been great. A stuff people don’t highlight is that you can self repair/replace the controller parts as Microsoft sells replacement parts & has service manuals online for the more approachable work. I see right to repair as a bonus personally so it only helps my love for the controller despite some of the flaws it has.

Been trying to find an in-depth review of this controller. This one is excellent and ticks all boxes. Thanks bro!

Thank you for this video! I'm finally making the jump to a controller with paddles (NHL kills my thumbsticks), and I watched your review on the NEW Core controller. It was so straight shooter, that I looked to see if you had a review for the regular Elite S 2. This video was so on point with no gimmicky junk that I couldn't help but like and sub. You sold me on this controller 100%. PS: It also helped that you mentioned you're a diamond in RL. I'm Champ 1, but spend most of my days in diamond due to playing solo on Fri/Sat nights only.

I got my xbox elite 2 controller the month it launched and I have never looked back! I love my controller and I haven't had any issues with it, I main FPS games and the paddles are a game changer for me.

I love mine, I have the Master chief elite 2 that looks awesome. I also only use the top two back paddles with the longer stems, the usb c cable that comes with is super long. I picked up the 8bitdo USB adapter and can use this controller on my switch with all it custom buttons still which is super cool Side note the dualsense needs updates when the Ps5 itself has an update

Pro Tip: for the back paddles they are all interchangeable. You can put any of the paddles in any of the 4 locations. For example if you take the larger bottom paddle and move it to the other side it will point upward and protrude out a bit more than normal. I do this bc the position is a bit more natural for my hand and having a bit of extra surface feels better.

They explained to me the reason why the bumpers on the elite series 2 are so bad is bc Microsoft doesn't use ALPS, they put on some cheap Chinese buttons. They actually sent me back the faulty ones and in fact they're some no-brand bumpers. Just make sure they use ALPS wherever you send it and that they know how to solder correctly so you get a clean job without damaging the motherboard or any other components.

My use case for the paddles is in games where I want to keep a button held down a majority of the time. My textbook example is Elden Ring, where you want to be running a lot of the time. Keeping the B button held down all the time gets uncomfortable after a multi-hour session, but the paddles just feel like I'm holding the controller so it doesn't give my hands any fatigue. Plus, it lets me use the left thumbstick and the B button (or any button) at the same time with only one hand, which is nice when I'm traveling a long way and want to use my other hand to check my phone or take a drink.

One thing i do have to say about the non replacable batteries, its not that we play 40 hour sessions, but when you leave the controller after racking up 39 hours and 30 minutes, next time you pick it up you run out and have to recharge, which is why i love my swappable rechargable batteries. One set is always full so i never have downtime

Love my Elite series 2 haven't had any issues, hopefully they bring out an elite series 3 at some point.

The one thing I don't like is how sunken in the buttons are, after my elite 2 controller died aweek ago. I went out and bought the regular series controller and as someone that plays claw it was alot easier to flick my xyba buttons. Also having no batteries in the controller making it feel super light which help in long Apex sessions. Hope elite 3 will address these complaints otherwise I don't see why I would switch back to it.

Got mine since March and I love it. I actually use all the paddles for Halo Infinite ( well if I start playing again I will). I placed nearly all button inputs onto the paddles as well as "ping target" as I don't want to let go of the sticks in most cases, ( Reload is an exception as you usually do it when you are safe and its a single button press. ) Currently I am also playing Elden Ring with it, there I only use 2 paddles. 1 for screenshot and another one for the "run" button, I would need to claw in that game otherwise to look around while running which is kinda stupid and hurts my hand.

The higher resistance is better for aiming and being able to handle super high sensitivities. If you are willing to spend this much on a controller then maybe you are like me and game a lot. The long stick / high resistance has given me terrible chronic pain in my thumb's knuckle, and it goes all the way up the muscle / ligaments till it reaches my elbow. So I have learned to use the lowest tension possible and after a couple of days I am just as lethal in most scenarios. Still goof a little bit here and there due it feeling a lot different. I adjusted the deadzone, look speed, and ADS speed in game and it feels great. I have less pain already only after a couple days. So just keep this in mind when setting up your controller.

If you are using paddles for shooters (Especially COD) it will def help you out to use the paddles. Bind them to A, B, X, & Y that way you don't ever have to take your thumb off the right stick to jumpshot, dropshot, slide cancel, swap weapons, reload, etc. Makes it easy to also hit buttons simultaneously or in quick succession.

I swear by my Elite S2, I’ll never go back to a regular controller by choice. It is absolutely superior in every way. Unfortunately so many people just think it’s crap because all the problems with the Elite S1 and I know they were having some quality assurance issues for a while but they’ve since corrected the issue and current production models are very well made. The product is worth the price imo. People just want something for nothing and it’s really annoying. I use mine at my desk less then a few feet away from my Xbox and I’ve always used it wired. I never use wireless. I have noticed though that if your controller is connected to your Xbox with the USB-C cord when firmware updates get pushed out it does it automatically. I can’t remember the last time I had to wait for an update to install.

I just ordered this from Microsoft along with the Xbox Series X and the headset, simply because of the showcase that occurred today and I can no longer deny the exclusives Xbox now has, I’ve been a hardcore PlayStation fan. I’m excited to get all of this this week, but the PS5 controller definitely seems better than this series 2 Edit: This is the first time I’m watching this guy. He’s hot and he has a cat, what a keeper

I plan to get the Elite Series 2 controller for my Series X soon. I heard the 1st batch that was released was a bit off, but I hope now, in 2022, it’s extremely clean.

Hi, How about the feel of vibration between elite series 2 and the ordinary one? Not many people are comparing this function.

The case is for that. So that the dust does not go into the Pad. This causes a lot of problems in the new Pads from Microsoft, the dust blocks the analog stick. Therefore, you should stick to the Pad in the Case while charging. If you don't do it in 5-7 months, the character in the game will move in different directions by itself

the only issue I had with this controller is the analog sticks sometimes unscrew no matter how hard I tighten them

Happy birthday!

I love back paddles for the joystick press. My thumbs do not like pressing down due to old age arthritis. I only have one paddle per side.

It's a nice controller, heaps of features. But... It has some serious quality control issues. Personally I shouldn't need to go through 3 controllers in the span of 36 months. EDIT: Especially at that price point.

I absolutly love the look and feel of this controller, but ive been through at least 4 (with best buy warrenty) because of the stupid bumper double inputs and other issues.

Word dude SAME! I traded 4packs of Juul pods for my boys brand new elite controller! He had the warranty 👍 I then traded it in when it got drift.. bought another warranty.. then again.. & again & again!? Then the warranty price got jacked up.. & I just didn’t get there in time to trade it in 1 last time (Fing BB Corona hours messed me up..) I had drift issues on all of them, but first 2 times I traded it in was bc of the bumpers also. Really wack how they can’t even make their High End controller not broken..

My only issue with series 2 has been that the stick rubbers wear out lol. They should include 2 sets of each for the price . I have 2 of them including the Halo one which is really cool.

Stick drift is the main issue with button delay. Normal controllers are so aids after a few months

I love the grip of the controller very comfortable and good for sweaty hands.

Great review and I just subbed specifically because you don't do the ridiculous thumbnail faces lol

Dude are you spying on me? You're making videos on all the items on my Amazon wishlist hehehe. Not but for real I haven't bought this controller just because I don't know if I'd be able to take advantage of all of its features, I don't think I would use the paddles at all but it still looks premium as heck and I really want it

I've had my V1 for years, but I want to upgrade soon. I too use the plus primarily and mostly in Rocket league for quick chats. lmao!

Just bought mine...cannot wait to try it!!!

I have had mine for two years as well. I love it but I've had to ship it back to Microsoft twice for a faulty LB button. Besides that, it's a great controller.

Razer Wolverine Ultimate is better than Elite 2 imo, and $100 on Amazon. The ABXY buttons are much better, feel like mouse clicks. It has trigger stops, and 6 reprogrammable buttons. Very good quality controller highly recommend for anyone sick of replacing their $180 controller.

Agree. Love the Razer Wolverine super responsive ABXY buttons AND M1 & M2 buttons for shooters. Even the underside buttons are in a better position compared to the elite. No more accidental paddle touching when gripping the controller under stress. Only downside, and its the only one is the Razer isnt wireless.

@@thestrapguy2006 true that can be a downside but I personally play at a desk so being wired isn’t an inconvenience.

Just an update , Xbox/Microsoft now sell and provide every single component that is in this controller and also has videos on how to take apart and fix it. Battery is replaceable now and its relatively easy to do !

I really like it, nothing does come close... BUT, the stories of durability really are true. I've gone through 3 separate controllers via warranty and repair. I do play a lot and I play as lot of games where one or both bumpers are in constant use for grenades and/or melee and it is always the bumpers that break.

I understand your point of view and I'm sure It's great but I just couldn't justify spending $180 on a controller unless I played e-sports and or earned my living through gaming! Great video again tho.

Somthing that is a completely different subject to the Xbox controller, have you ever thought of maybe adding VR to your channel? I did own a PSVR but now game on an Oculus Quest 2, as your probably aware it does not need any console or PC just a Facebook account which for some is a no-go which I understand but anyway any VR on Space Cowboy's channel in the future?

My Elite Series 2 has a rough feel when sprinting in the top left direction, and the trigger stop thing, hair trigger thing, whatever it's called broke off, so now it's just a spike, I also still have the piece that covered it, should I use my warranty to fix it? Note: the hair trigger still works, it's just slightly harder to use and can hurt my finger more easily.

Hey I loved your BinBok review and they recently came out with a new BinBok slim which is smaller but has major improvements to things like the buttons, triggers, and the d-pad, I wanted to see if you could review it.

Thank You Very Much Idol Dude From Your Tutorial Video Guide 😁😁

Thanks for the review. I think I might have to pick this up for Monster Hunter.

This controller helps me more than any other controller have it held in my I really enjoy turn the console on just with the headset when I turn the console off everything goes on it's great very comfortable for long periods of time if you set the headset tilt-back off the head very comfortable they got it right can imagine how they would top it.

Okay you convinced me to get one. Just ordered an 'open box' off eBay.

Mine is still working and looking great. Keep it with at all times in the car, when I can fit in mobile COD.

The standard xbox series x/s controller (also PS5 controller) has firmware updates too. This is more for bugfixes and enhancements. Not some massive change to how you play a game or use the controller, but to correct problems not caught between manufacturing and connection to a console...

I really dislike the plus-sign d-pad on this controller. On mine, at least, there is a tiny bit of play between the magnetic mount and the metal pad itself, which is small but also so noticeable when playing retro-style games. At high levels in Tetris Effect, for example, I've ended up stacking several times because I mistook the click of the d-pad shifting slightly for the click of the actual press engaging.

I just received my first elite series 2 a couple days ago, and of course my B button sticks 😁😁 looks like everyone’s comment was right when they said it’s either a hit or miss whether you get a good controller or not

Sooo funny that you decided to make your thumbnail emotionless 😂😂😂

What I'd like to know is if the face buttons get stuck too, this happens often with my regular controller, all those extra features of the elite are worthless to me.
