    Great controller definitely worth its price. Great for racing games and also FPS games. The ability to map the buttons and having different levels of trigger response makes a huge difference. The 4 extra paddles in the back are great to have shortcuts with certain games.

    The options for the different styles of buttons etc and ability to change layouts is a definitely a game changer. Solid feed back and function. And the charging dock are fantastic.

    These are the only controllers I will buy yes sometimes they have problems but I won't buy anything else they're sturdy they're made with the best components and if you have an issue with it you send it off and they fix it for free or you get a brand new. I really think these are the best controllers on any platform.

    You can’t go wrong with a classic. I’ve tried other controllers over the years that are cheaper and supposedly higher quality. I’ve tried off brand, standard on brand, wired, wireless. I always come back to this.

    Excellent controller but some issues on PC

    The Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 feels a lot better than the included controller in the Series X/S and seems more like a true "next gen" controller. I primarily use the Xbox Elite 2 for PC gaming. On Steam when connecting via Bluetooth the controller has worked flawlessly except with Batman: Arkham Knight which required telling the game it was a 360 controller with custom mappings. Surprisingly with Xbox PC game pass I ran into many more issues when connecting via Bluetooth, I found connecting via the included USB-C cable works better for game pass games, otherwise on BT I run into issues where some of the buttons aren't mapped properly and even when manually mapping them they don't respond correctly or at all. Being Xbox's flagship controller, I would think it would run seamlessly on Xbox game pass. The experience may be better on consoles but this controller is billed as an Xbox/PC controller and should work well on both. Other than those issues, which largely are corrected by connecting via USB-C, I like the controller quite a bit. The rumble feature feels much more natural than the included Xbox Series X controllers, which felt to me like technology from 10+ years ago with very basic and clunky vibration feedback, lightweight and a need for AA batteries, especially when compared with the all mighty PS DualSense. The Elite 2 controller has a nice weight to it, the thumb sticks feel solid, snappy and respond nicely. I haven't used the paddles much but I like that they are included and could see them being useful for many games. The grips feel good as well and make the controller sit securely in your hands during gaming sessions. The controller also feels more balanced than the X/S. This controller comes with a quality, corded 9' USB to USB-C cable as well as a rugged case that doubles as a charging station. Within the case it also includes a tool to adjust the thumb sticks as well as an alternate D-pad. Overall this is a large improvement over the included X/S controllers, and some of its PC compatibility issues which are a bit frustrating can largely be overcome by tethering with USB-C.

    Great controller. Good heft, adjustable stick tension and trigger throw. This version (Core) does not include the bottom paddles (removable) but can be equipped with them if you have them. It also does not include the case or the charging dock (again Core version lacks these accessories). This is my second Elite 2. Hopefully, this one doesn't die of drift like the first did.

    Best controller on the market! This might be the best thing Microsoft has ever created. No other controller comes close to its perfection. Only wish it worked on all consoles.

    I recently bought the Xbox Elite Controller for my son, and it has completely exceeded our expectations! The build quality is top-notch, with a premium feel that’s evident the moment you pick it up. The customizable thumbsticks and paddles allow for a truly personalized gaming experience, giving him more control and precision in every game. The grip is comfortable, even during long gaming sessions, and the adjustable tension on the triggers adds an extra level of responsiveness. The controller also syncs seamlessly with the Xbox, and the ability to switch profiles on the fly is incredibly convenient. It’s definitely worth the investment for any serious gamer, and my son absolutely loves it! Highly recommend this controller for anyone looking to elevate their gaming experience!
