Customer Ratings & Reviews

This remote is by far the best because it comes with components that otherwise would cost a lot more. Another benefit is that it’s it’s case charges the remote.

This is the best controller on the market that isn't the full Elite Series 2. I have one of those that's out of warranty which has issues with the bumpers, so I picked this up as a cheaper replacement. Since I already have the full Series 2 system, this is all I need. Very comfortable, easy setup, works great.

Best controller for xbox. A little pricey but way better than the stock controller.

Great controller and a must have for hardcore gamers. The battery life is excellent and it is very durable. It is a little heavier than a standard controller.

Premium feel. A bit on the heavier side with the build in battery. Love the removeable paddles and interchangeable thumbsticks.

I love the customization it allows. No stick drift yet so thats a huge plus.

I'm appreciate Microsoft offering a cheaper elite 2 controller for those who already have a case and flippers. Great deal and sometimes even on sale for cheaper at Best Buy!

Love the durability and customization. Took my gaming to the next level

After not having used an Xbox controller since the first one, which was gigantic, this is a great feeling controller. A little small for my hands but it does bother me and still feels great. The buttons are responsive, and the build quality is great. Sometimes it has had a hard time connecting to my pc but that could just be a me thing.

Customization at your fingertips, and a USB-C connect and charge port for connecting to PC without Bluetooth. Great for gaming on the Xbox or PC. The included charging station is substantial enough to survive my kids, and uses a magnet to keep the controlled fit snugly while charging.

The quality of this controller is like nothing I've owned before in console gaming. Very sturdy, great options and ample customization

Heavier than a standard controller but nice to hold. Paddles are a good option for certain fast-paced games.

Its a red elite controller! This one works out if you want to add your own paddles and joy sticks without having little baggies of them scattered about your home. I have not had any drift issues or imput problems with this, so thats always a bonus. Also, those metalic red triggers and bumpers are oh so pretty.

Great controller for pro gaming and durability Great build

The controller is very light weight, well-built and love the grap but attracts a lot of dirty due to the white part

This controller is fire works perfect for games like Warzone etc..

great controller, has lasted a long time so far and the battery life is great

Definitely a step above the standard Xbox controller. I use on the PC and connecting is simple and battery life lasts me several play sessions.

Smooth joy sticks with no walking. Holds a charge and is comfortable to hold.

I picked up this elite controller after a flood of recommendations from so many sources. I thought it would allow for some macros and other useful things through the use of the paddles but that didn't pan out. I really want to love this thing but it's hard to. The default vibration sounds like it's trying to saw itself in half. But props to them for allowing you to turn that down in the accessories app. You can make some fine tuning to your dead zones and joystick curves there as well. If you drop this controller, you'll get to pretend it's a Mr. Potato head and go hunting for the joysticks and the D pad insert. The levers on the back, as cool as they look, are useless at best and intrusive at their worst. They'd be useful if you could use them to macro together a combination of key presses or if they were a unique button recognized by game developers. But the only control you have over these things is what button to you want it to mimic. Or, realistically, what buttons do you want to accidentally press all the time? The handle grips are great and the triggers are nice as well. I like that the controller came with both a charging dock and a usb-c port. Battery life is good so far. Having the option to pick thumb sticks is a cool feature and one of the few unique aspects I think is actually useful. Being able to pick what Dpad you like is neat, but in a perfect world unless you're playing retro titles or fighting games I think it's of limited use. Unless new functionality gets added for the elite, I personally don't think it's worth it's asking price. I wouldn't buy it again. The elite is no where near 3x as nice as a standard controller but it's certainly 3x the price. If these were half the price, they'd be great.
