Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this controller about a month ago and what a difference in gameplay. I no longer use the buttons during play instead am using the paddles which for me works much more efficient. The quality of this is amazing and better than any other controller I had. I was always a fan of PlayStation controllers until someone told me this controller will change my mind in many ways for gaming. If you are a hardcore FPS I recommend this controller all day long.

Love my controller. Super high quality. The adjustable tension on the sticks is to die for! 10/10 makes gameplay better.

The elite 2 separates itself with the extra paddles on the back. The layout and feel of these extra paddles are much better than other controllers. The programmable profiles are a nice feature as well. If you are a heavy gamer I would opt for the warranty.

It works well but the A button is intermittent already after only a couple of months of light use (8-12 hours a week). No issues with the grips yet like the first elite. The elite series 2 joysticks do work so that's a plus.

I have used the controller several times now, but the weight is something I have to get used to. There is a bit of learning curve with the extra paddles on the back. The price was excellent, but to be fair, I did get it as an open box item.

The used controller was very accurate. The controller was in excellent condition. It had all the parts that come with the controller and was clean and ready to use. I will always trust bestbuy with its open box items and they are always in correct condition

Best of the best. I had the original Elite controller (and still do.. 4 years and going strong). When I got the Series X Console, it seemed like a miss pairing to use a generic controller with such a beautiful console. Series 2 Elite builds on the strengths of the original... refined paddles, digitally selectable profiles, additional trigger stop options etc. it also has a great feature of being able to charge the internal battery while it in its case. A++ device.... that price tag tho....

Great controller, has lasted me a year now. Maintenance is key on keeping the controller operating in good condition.

Great controller highly recommended, I play competitive better now

Definitely recommend. I’ve had a couple of these controllers over the years and will keep one as long as I have a Xbox. The controller weighs just a little bit more but it feels great actually feels like it has value. Battery life is very nice as well.

I've had the worst luck with XBOX controllers. They are by far the most unreliable controllers on the market. I am extremely careful, gentle with my controllers what frustrates me the most. This controller does have a tendency to frequently disconnect from my XBOX. Sometimes I have to completely power off my console or reconnect by pairing the controller again. To my stupidity, I did not get the protection plan on this controller, so I guess I am out of luck. With XBOX my controllers usually last 1-2 years with no wear and tear at all. Actually, my controller that came with the XBOX lasted months before not working and it was just a backup controller that was hardly used. With the money that I paid for this controller if it does not last I will definitely be switching to Playstation 5. My Playstation 4 controllers are over 5 years old and work perfectly fine. I will say the quality of the controller is great and it feels great in the hands. It also has some well-balanced weight to it which feels good as well. Buttons and pad are adjustable and it does come with a nice carrying case.

The build quality of this controller is solid, there are a few quality of life improvements added such as rechargeable battery, better grips and a button to adjust the profile that's in use (instead of a switch). If you're looking for a nice Xbox/PC controller this is a solid buy, if you have a Series 1 controller I wouldn't recommend the upgrade unless you get this on sale.

Love this controller so many customizations for it

Love everything about it -- except the new rubber padding that was extended over the handles. My old Elite controller they gripped really well; the new material feels waxy and slippery. Other than that, there's nothing to complain about. Comes with rechargeable battery and recharges by putting back in the case. Adjustable joystick tension, better paddle controls, and a host of other improvements make this the best conrtoller out there. If only it felt "grippier'....

great controller great ergonomic feel - proper weight. very comfortable to get the most enjoyable performance possible. the bottom triggers give me the gaming edge i always needed. a musty - fully reccommend.

The best controller on the market. I’ve had 2 of the original Elite Controller and this improved on it in every way. Better battery life, a case with built-in charging cradle, better (long lasting) grips, multiple thumb sticks, and thumb stick tension? They literally checked every box I could’ve asked for. It lasts longer too—none of that drift issue plaguing the first generation. I have used this every day since it came out and the only issue I’ve had was hand cramps from playing too long!

Very nice controller!!! Interchangeable buttons, you can set this controller up to your exact needs!

This controller is amazing in every way except 1. I would think that a $200 controller would last more than a year and a half before the sticks started drifting with no way to fix. I have original XBOX 360 controllers that I still use years and years later. Those cost $60 and still work perfectly, but this super expensive (and totally worth the price for how it works... when it works) controller needs to be replaced not even 2 years after purchase. I am a middle aged man who uses this probably a quarter of what a young kid would and it always gets stored in its cradle after use, and still.... have to replace it already. This is a problem I see hundreds of videos referencing too, so it is not isolated. I hope they fix it in future generations of controllers, because everything about it is truly Elite, except its life span.

The controller is good. Plagued with issues of buttons not responding, triggers failing, stick drift but when it works it works well. I have one and my son has one. Mine still works great. My sons is another story.

Good product inline with all of the other Xbox controllers. Remarkably well built and the rubber grips are a pleasant addition as is the inbuilt battery. Overkill for normal gaming but totally worth it as a gift item for someone who enjoys gaming.
