There's a lot to love about Microsoft's Xbox Elite Series 2 wireless controller: interchangeable thumbsticks with adjustable tension, multiple paddles (also interchangeable), a comfortable rubber grip. There's also one thing that's been a little less loved: a $179.99 price tag that's stuck around since its 2019 debut.
As pointed out by Wario64, Lenovo's online store has an Xbox Elite Series 2 controller deal that greatly alleviates this concern. Using the code XBOXELITE at checkout will drop the price to a much more reasonable $95. That's a savings of $84.99, or about 47 percent off MSRP—whichever way you want to calculate it, it's a compelling deal if you were looking for a first-party upgrade.
