Customer Ratings & Reviews

Best Bluetooth controller to play with Steam Input and take advantage of the additional paddle buttons.

i have a team of expert reviewers (my three grandsons) who put this controller through an rigorous testing regime over the last few weeks. They all three said that it was great. The fact that it stood up to their nonstop and sometimes energetic playing means that it is durable as well as great.

This is an amazing controller. The amount of ways you can customize the controller are huge, and the in console settings are also limitless. The problem is that this is hugely faulty controller. Face buttons were going out a little over half a year after it was purchased, and it was not used too much. And this is a common issue unfortunately. I've lucked out that i had total tech so I could easily swap out the controller for a new one. Cause for a controller that costs $170, these faults are inexcusable.

The product is excellent. When you need another one, you're going to buy it again.

Really nice controller but definitely get the geek squad replacement plan.

I got what I paid for. Missing a USB cable. A right bumper that works most of the time. The rubber end on the stopper switch spontaneously went missing

Best quality and comfort hands down. I've been using this controller since it came out and it's the best controller on the market.

At first I was skeptical of a 200 dollar controller. After been using it for three months now it feels fantastic much better than any other controller than I have ever used. It has a good weight to it and feels high quality. Definitely worth the 200 in my opinion, so just buy it already you know you need a new one.

Great controller, just waiting for the dreaded stick drift. Get the service plan. I have had about 5 different controllers already.

Best controller hands down...from swtting up to setting the buttons everything is easy to do and very nice to use.

Amazing controller! The grip is much better than the standard controller. Need to get used to the back paddles but that comes with time. No sticking issues on any button as some reviews suggest. Battery lasts over two weeks without charging with 3 hours of play every night.

Had the first one and didnt like it but i love this one more than the regular controller even without the paddles the rechargeable battery is worth it. I got this on sale at 130 with total geeks squad protection. So in my opinion worth every cent.

This is the best controller I've ever had, and I'm not just saying that. Has the best grip, joystick feel and customization out of any I've tried before, and the charging dock it comes with it simply magical. Highly recommended to pro and casual gamers alike!

Amazing upgrade from the original Xbox controller. I love it! The paddles keep my thumbs on the sticks where they belong! The ability to adjust the trigger is amazing! Love the fact I can plug it into my PC and game with it on there too!

Absolutely love this controller. So much to customize, great weight and feel. With any high valued device, handle with care (obviously).

This controller is well built but it has terrible terrible terrible drift stick. This is my second unit and seriously it’s a design flaw! Disappointed.

Its solid and works amazingly well on xbox and windows. If you are a mac user go for a ps4 controller. I had to have it repaired once the left joystick stopped working after it fell (short distance). But Microsoft got it all fixed up and back with very little issue ... best repair service experience I have ever had

I had the original Elite and it finally stopped working. So the new one is even better and feels the same but better

If you like things being broken out of the box, then wowee have I got a product for you. I've had 3 of these things so far and I'm not sure how much I want a 4th.. EVERY SINGLE ONE of these things has had a problem with the left thumbstick. Not just 'oh a problem', but a very specific, 100% reproducable problem. Can confirm using the xbox accessories app. First one, with in a month of unboxing the left thumbstick would produce a random input, it would move the direction you pushed it but give a random value; up was the worst. You could barely walk around. It was awful. Second one had the same issue immediately upon opening. Third one I've had for almost 3 months and now the left thumbstick is producing random input values for left and right. Sometimes right is worse, sometimes left is worse. Depends on the day. Up and down have a different problem, sometimes when you give the stick a quick flick and release, the input value slowly returns back to center instead of instantly. Needless to say, this is marketed as a top shelf, high quality, precision/competitive controller and it's more of a sloppy mess. It's impossible to play rocket league at a champ level with this thing. Apex feels like I'm ice skating all the time and you can't strafe left or right reliably, making you an easy target for even the noobiest of noobs. The best part is, its never a problem with anything else; right thumbstick works perfect, rear buttons are flawless, face buttons are decent (sometimes they double press when you push it once, it's fairly rare tho and could be an xbox live bug since I can pin point it to certain screens usually an on screen keyboard) love the triggers, the dual stage trigger locks are amazing, bumpers feel nice, can store 3 presets, thumb sticks have an adjustable tension attribute, which I honestly think is the cause of the random values. Controller is comfortable, grips are little bit slippery but I don't mind that. I'd rather have a working left thumbstick. For the $180 I spent I expected perfection. I'm pretty sure I'm either going to get a scuff for xb1 or I'm going to get a scuff for ps4 and run 3rd party software to hook the ps4 controller up to my xb1. I've seen the same 3 ps4 controllers get thrown at a tile floor, repeatedly, by 2 different children and it's like nothing even happened. I'm confident this elite 2 would be in 15 pieces if I let them treat it the same. (It wasnt btw, I treat it like a kings crown, never dropped, only handled when necessary, used the d-pad instead of thumb sticks for scrolling menus, etc.)

Purchased this because the regular Xbox buttons are too loud. A very comfortable controller and gaming experience
