    It fills so smoothly, heavy and solid, it’s really different experience. Even if you don’t you down pads you need to have one, sticks moving so smooth and accurate. I love it, perfect. I dont have too much time for gaming, but it still great.

    This controller is fantastic. It feels great and is insanely customizable. It is slightly too small for my hands. They also removed 1 long thumbstick from the previous version. Even with my complaints, it is still the best controller around.

    This is by far the best controller I have ever used, Battery lasts over a week without charging depending on vibration settings in games, the grips are fantastic, the paddles are great and you don't have to use them all, or at all. The build quality is 10/10 legit best controller Ever, would recommend over scuf, especially with warranty

    The buttons give up after a year of use, buy at your own risk. Ps. The regular controller works better save your money :)

    I like the customization of buttons and sensativity. My dislikes are far more though. The left stick creeps down so playing first person shooters my player is constantly moving back or im holding it in the “neutral” zone. I have constant issues with the battery. I can leave it charging over night. Unplug it, and it dies in 30 min or less. Mid game with no warning.

    The elite controllers are so great because of the extra weight and the overall feel. Plus the color pops. Worth it if you don’t need the paddles or extra sticks!

    Excellent Upgrade From Series 1

    I upgraded my Elite Series 1 and have no regrets so far. The controller feels very good and high quality. The 3 levels for the trigger buttons is a must have for any first person shooter gamers. Only concern is how the handle grips will hold up since the Series 1 had serious issues with them peeling. A bit pricey but if you're a serious gamer or game a lot this controller is worth it.

    I love this controller. Absoultely cant really complain about anything. Except 1 thing. If your hands start to sweat the grip on the back starts getting a little sticky.

    This is a great product!! I use to have the original elite controller and it was great, but they have made so much improvements in functionality and feel. I'm so in love with this controller! It is a bit expensive, but it's worth it if you are looking into competition controllers. I also have the razer wolverine competition controller and this is far superior!!! Great buy! I totally recommend!!!

    It’s a great controller, haven’t had the first one before, and I love how it feels when you play any game. I will say the price is a little more the other should be but Microsoft gotta make money from it. I say get it if you can but you should stick with the standard XBox controllers instead of the elite.

    Premium controller for Xbox. This controller has four remappable back buttons. The build quality is metal and durable plastic. Altogether no expenses spared, grab it on a sale to make it worth your money. If you want it for PC, grab the dongle for the wireless experience.

    As an elite controller buyer it make sense to save The extra money for the same specs minus all of the additional accessories. Also the color options add a flare instead of the standard black elite controller.

    As long as it keeps working, this is one of the best feeling controllers on the market. I really wish Microsoft would just redesign the internals and release a series 3.

    After having this controller for a couple of months now & finally having a real opportunity to play with it, I realized that I don’t have everything that was suppose to come in the box. When trying to charge my controller I realized that I didn’t have a USB-C cable that was suppose to come included in the box. I am highly perturbed at this moment. Help!!!

      Hey there,

      We're sorry that you're missing the USB-C cable from your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. If it's still within Best Buy's return period, we recommend exchanging your controller for a new one. Otherwise, the good news is that the controller is compatible with any standard USB Type A-to-USB Type C charging cable. Best Buy has a few different options available.

      Hope that helps,
