Great controller!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller has a very premium feeling. I had the last variation of the Elite controller and it served me well for a couple of years. Eventually I started to get some stick drift and the rubberized grips started to come off. This controller is nicer than it's predecessor and I've seen no such problems yet.

The Xbox elite series 2 controller is a must buy !
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just bought the series x bundle and wanted a more high tech controller and this is it ! In my opinion this is better than a scuf custom controller . Between the added accessories and design of this controller you can’t go wrong .

Elite controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my son’s second Elite controller in less than a year. The first one had a button go bad after a few months of use. He really likes this controller even though it has way to many buttons for me to comprehend.

Great for playing competitive shooters
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been using the elite controllers since the beginning of the first elite v1. These controllers are very sturdy, and add a competitive advantage while playing competitive games. Haven’t had any problems with either controllers, and will continue to buy future new and improved controllers from Microsoft.

Xbox elite v2
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Xbox elite 2 controller is the best thing you can buy for your gaming experience. One problem this controller has though is the joystick may ware out faster than you think so definitely buy warranty to swap when you feel controller drift.

Awesome Controller!!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is amazing! It’s very similar to the series 1, but has some great notable upgrades. My favorite new features are actually that it comes with a magnetic charging stand and the fact that it has an internal rechargeable battery. Worth every penny!

Great idea, terrible quality control
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love playing my Xbox and my elite 1 started to have stock drift, so I figured I’d upgrade since it’s been a while. Got this baby in pretty fast Best Buy was great all things considered but the product came defective out the box. Now I dont know what the process is to return this now that COVID-19 is upon us, but I’ll tell you guys what was wrong out the box. The A button is non responsive a lot and it’s frustrating when I press it to no avail. The controller always disconnects from my Xbox everyday for a random moment. I love the elite controller idea but part of me thinks I should’ve went with a different company like scuff or Astro.

Elite controller
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have a normal controller your missing out. The paddles are a game changer. My only complaint is get the extra warranty. For some reason the right bumper seems to go bad alot just replace it.

Amazing controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far the best I have ever had! The quality is beyond what I was expecting. The battery life is phenomenal. I still haven’t had to charge it. It was really pricy though. Not sure it’s worth $180. Over $200 with geek squad protection. If you want a really great controller though, this is the one.

Great controller but one exception
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller works as intended but it keeps disconnecting with a wireless connection to my PC. I have updated the drivers and restarted the computer and it still disconnects. When I use it with the xbox it doesn't disconnect.

Posted .Hi Joseph,
We're sorry that there's an issue with your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. First, we recommend troubleshooting the issue with Xbox Support. If that doesn't help, one option is to invest in a Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10, which may offer a more stable wireless connection than Bluetooth. Xbox Support may be contacted here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution
Hope that helps,

Best controller for Xbox series X
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best controller for Xbox gaming. Vast improvement from the 1st gen elite controller, and is an excellent addition for the Xbox series X. Mapping is easy and better life is perfect. This is a brilliant piece of hard wear for any elite gamer.

The best controller for Xbox or PC
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did lots of research before purchasing and had it narrowed down to this controller and a Scuff prestige. After purchasing the elite I am very happy I went with it. The customization of the controls is great and the feel of the controller in your hand is just what I was looking for.

Great feel, not so great quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Once you hold an Elite Series 2 controller, you will never want to hold anything else. The build, looks and feel are incredible. The controller also has great battery life - claiming over 40 hours of gameplay - although I never tested that theory, the battery life is VERY long. The customization options are great and every gamer should be able to find a button/layout combo that works for them. Downside is that one of the D-pads stopped responding to certain directions just as the warranty expired. After some research, this is not uncommon. C'mon Xbox, a $200 controller should NOT have simple quality issue.
