    Pro feel, better joysticks and rubber grips. The sticks also have different attachments and can be calibrated.

    My son's series 1 controller stopped working a couple of months ago. We've been waiting for the series 2 to be released. My son seems to like the new one, I didn't see much difference other than the higher price.

    Drift Starting after 3 Months of Use

    AMAZING CONTROLLER. Best controller I’ve ever had my hands on. But after 3 months of use, I’m starting to experience the dreadful drifting and also the little nob you click on the back of the controller has this soft material on it and that broke off without me ever even using that nob. Definitely not cool when I mainly play FPS games. If it wasn’t for the drift and nob material breaking off this is the best controller ever made. But for a controller that is $200 it shouldn’t have any of these issues to be very honest with you.

    Has a certain weight and feel to it that makes gaming feel a little more immersive. It’s a little pricey but after playing on this for a few weeks it’s hard to go back to a regular controller .

    Love this controller, the Bluetooth feature is a plus for me, to be able to take my personal settings on the xbox and apply them to my phone was a great add-on. I believe also it will be compatible with the next gen console so not much you will be losing

    If you can afford it and it's the first time you hold and use this controller you'll be very impressed. It is the most comfortable controller I own including the PS5 and Switch Pro (which are great on their own).

    Great controller for enthusiasts

    First off, I love this controller. The overall build and quality is immensely better than the standard Xbox controller. And it should be, given that it is 2-3x more expensive than the standard, but you definitely get what you pay for. The sheer amount of customization is overwhelming, but is great for the serious gamer. I have noticed the RB button started to stick within the first 4 months of casual gaming, so I am very disappointed about that. My standard controllers only began to have button sticking issues after 1-2 years of use. Subtracting 2 stars because of this.

      Hi Alex,

      We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 for the most part. It's especially great to hear that you're a fan of its customization features and sturdy construction, too. While it sounds like your Elite 2 may be outside of its 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty, we recommend reaching out to Xbox Support to see if there is a fix for the issue you are experiencing here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,

    Best controller for PC or XBOX no question. MINUS the 2 I took back because of stick drift and/or the A face button didn't work. But this 3rd controller is the absolute best. This rating is on the 3rd controller not my experience getting them.

    Best quality controller you can buy. Even without the ability to assign buttons to the levers, the obvious high quality of the controller makes it a good choice, and if you can get it on sale, even better!

    The Microsoft Elite 2 controller is unquestionably the best controller available for all versions of X-Box, and at the recent sale price of $139.95 was a must buy item. Next day delivery was a very pleasant plus.

    Good controller just make sure to return it under warranty every year to Microsoft because as good as this controller feels and plays, they don't last long.
