Customer Ratings & Reviews

I loved it, and will continue to love it. But it did develop stick adrift. Pretty annoying. 

Great controller, but will start noticing wear after about a year if you're careful.

The elite series 2 controller is fantastic. I will never go back to another controller. The only problem with these is that they break down easily. An example of this is the bumpers just stop working. Definitely an item to get geek squad protection on as they will replace it for you.

This is a great brand of gaming controller, well worth the money, I love the charging case it comes with and all the interchangable pieces for the thumb sticks and d pad.

Its a amazing control, everything to the grips, dpad and bumpers work so well. Only issue i had was that the rubber where rb and lb bumpers are at started to peel off.

amazing, performs excellently. Cool feeling, good grip and paddle control.

If you wanna upgrade your gaming to the next level this is it.

Gotta give Microsoft credit cuz they made the Elite controller even better. Solid built but I’m just waiting to see if there will be any stick drift I’m with this in the future. As of this review I’m 2 months in and so far so good. I don’t care for the grips, I’m hoping scuf comes out with their grips for this soon but other than that I think this is a perfect controller.

Good improvement with the battery and Bluetooth. As far as “physical” upgrades go, if your gen 1 Elite controller is still performing well, then keep using it. This is for those who need to replace their gen 1 or for those who are looking into getting an Elite controller for the first time.

So I bought this controller on the word of my teenager….He knows his stuff!! The controller isn’t even the best part! The extra paddles and extended charging cord definitely make this a worthwhile investment. Customization for what you prefer is what makes this a worthwhile purchase :)

Dont know why i waited so long to get one of these. love it

Feels a lot better than a normal controller, and it’s nice being able to change out the parts, I play better at siege with it.

Definitely worth the money. Joy sticks are much smoother and the paddles allow for east customization for your gameplay needs.

I was pleasantly surprised with how much heavier and sturdier this controller feels in comparison to the standard Xbox controllers. I like the metal d-pad and rear triggers.

Good controller. Accustomed to using a Scuff controller which is more versatile. A great option if you're not going custom.

I think this controller is a step in the right direction for Xbox, because this controller here feels and handles more like an elite controller. The movements are flawless and effortless, plus the battery last longer and you charge the controller by putting it back in its case! It also shows the battery balance that let you know it's time to recharge!

The Xbox Elite Series 2 is a high quality controller with lots of customization for settings weather your on Xbox or PC. I’ve used other pro controllers but I like the feel and durability more with the Xbox Elite Series 2!

Let me start with the positives. The magnetic analog sticks are extremely nice and easy to change, the trigger settings are also easy to use and a welcome feature, and the paddles are well placed and customizable. The controller feels premium in your hands as well. The problem is there is a noticeable amount of stick drift, the pads on the switches for the triggers are coming off, and the controller gets very warm in your hands making them sweat. Also the A,B,X, and Y buttons just don't register sometimes leading to multiple presses being required. For the price point these issues shouldn't be there. I would recommend getting a scuff controller if you're looking in this price range.

My original purchase was May 15, 2020. This will be my second time returning a controller in 2 years. This one I received after using my replacement warranty July 17, 2021. I purchased a 2 year warranty each time. It’s very upsetting because every time I have to return this faulty product I also have to purchase a warranty that’s going to cost me about $59 which is ridiculous. Each time it's issues with the controls. The first time, it kept drifting during gameplay. Now with this remote it's the left thumbstick that won't respond pressing up and if it does respond, it's very delayed. This is a $180 controller. I've never had to return a $60 controller. I keep giving them more money because I know I'll need a replacement. I would not recommend this unless you want to get stuck in a loop of continuous replacements and warranty purchases of $59 which is the cost of a regular controller which will last you years. It’s definitely not a one-time purchase item. I am very disappointed by this product because when it was working, it was great but it has less than a years use. It's just not made well--at least the ones I keep getting. Maybe it's just Best Buys stock, I don't know. But this is it. Last return, no more warranty purchases for me.

It's a bit bulky as they all are of course. Quite heavyier than the regular ones. Bought for my son and he doesn't use it
