Customer Ratings & Reviews

It feels phenomenal, just like every Elite controller Microsoft makes. But just like every Elite controller Microsoft makes, it wears too quickly. The rubber grips aren't a problem this time, bur there's already drift on one of the sticks and the R-trigger is squeaking loudly. It feels like these things are destined to break down quickly despite being the most comfortable and satisfying controllers to use.

These come with tons of options for customization as far as your gaming style! They work super great and I have had 0 issues as far as connectivity and stick drift. I wish they were more sturdy one drop and the its opening at the edges. The magnetic joysticks and dpad are super cool but for me stronger magnets would be appreciated. Because that one drop, makes them pop off, sometimes found like a year later!

Right out of the box the quality of the controller is amazing, the weight from the metal and the grip they used felt amazing. All around it’s the best bang for your buck controller. The only reason I gave one less star is that I bought the controller assuming it came with paddles but it didn’t and that’s my fault obviously it caused me to go on amazon and buy and wait for the paddles to come.

Really good controller and comfortable grip. Only issue is that I didn't have the replacement parts that it came with like it sated on the box. but overall quite happy with it, plus really long battery life. I only had to charge maybe once or twice since I bought

The game controller exceeded my expectations with its ergonomic design and responsive buttons. It delivered an immersive gaming experience, enhancing precision and comfort. The sleek aesthetic and customizable features add a personalized touch. This controller is a game-changer, elevating my gaming sessions to new heights. Highly recommend for any gamer!

Great controller, once you’ve played with back paddles you can’t go back. Easy to program on your console. I can honestly give it 5 stars because I don’t count the normal wear and tear of a controller. I get a new controller whenever the stick drift gets too unbearable which is around 18mos for this particular controller. Some of the more expensive controllers tend to wear out sooner than that.

The Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller feels like a premium upgrade in every way. The build quality is solid, the grip is comfortable for long gaming sessions, and the adjustable tension sticks give great precision. The triggers are smooth, and the response time is excellent. I also love how easy it is to customize with the Xbox Accessories app. It’s a great choice if you want pro-level performance without the full price of the complete Elite bundle.

The grips are nice, the mutiple pads are really nice i have smaller hands so two is enough, clicking one button can set 3 different preset paddle binds, its inconvenient if your good at multiple games that need different button binds, Many reviews and people say that the bumbers start to fail first but really just take care of it and dont just set it anywhere

Buying this controller has to be a great choice and well worth the money. It feels great in the hands with grip and weight. Buttons are responsive and joysticks and dpad are feels great.

Got a two year warrenty because of stick drift and the plastic on the side disforming. Nothing bad has happened. No drift. Full customization and I got cheap paddles on amazon. No complaints still the best controller to get for $120. Beautifully red.

I knew I needed a rechargeable, wireless controller for upcoming Xbox games I wanted to play, but I was skeptical of the value with a $129 controller... however, I finally bit the bullet and dove in, and I am glad I did. This is an excellent, responsive controller, and it doesn't get much better than this. I love the style, feel and ability to configure it, and it feels natural and light when playing for extended sessions.

Awesome controller, I highly recommend for those who play on Xbox or PC. I had the original Elite Series 2 controller, but it broke so I used my Total Tech membership to get a replacement and decided to get the Core (Since I already had the case and buttons). Love the color tone of the core. It's important to note that this controller is great if you're replacing an older one or don't need the paddles. But the weight and grip make it worth it.

Great feel to the sticks, buttons, and triggers. The customization through the console is great if you take the time to adjust everything carefully. I have an older model with the paddles (extra purchase on this model) and I can remove them and put them on this one when I want to. Overall a much better controller than the standard Xbox controller.

If your looking for input customization for different games and more anaolog options for your thumbs this is the controller for you. I have had my old one for about 4 years and I wouldnt replace it with any other type. I was happy to see they had a cheaper option because all the old parts from my other one still can be used on this one. Also has a lot of weight to it and can take an impact if dropped.

These controllers are great. Pros: Customizable Feels great Love the grips Cons: About to get my 4th one is 6 years. Had 1 with bad stick drift after a year (common issues) 1 both bumpers stopped working consistantly (common) Was able to use paddles to solve this problem. 1 that the house cracked (might have came that way), but spread. Treated the controller carefully too. So, love the controller. But i am also prepare to replace it every year lol.

As someone who prefers Xbox controllers over others, this controller is top of the line and gives you enough accessibility to customize and personalize your controller to your preferences with different presets so you can alternate between different game types and adjustable thumbsticks and triggers. The controller is of course just the elite series 2 controller but without the accessory kit and unfortunately it carries over the same issues the previous controller has. Thankfully, in my experience with this controller, I’ve had much less issues especially within the nearly two years I’ve had it. Would I recommend it? Absolutely… with the warranty. It feels as if they made these controllers with flaws or degradation over time and not built to last unless you’re extremely careful and lucky!

I purchased the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller from Best Buy and have been very impressed with the quality and performance. The controller feels solid and premium, with customizable paddles, adjustable tension thumbsticks, and great battery life. It’s extremely comfortable to use and noticeably improves gameplay, especially for competitive games. The purchase process at Best Buy was smooth, and the controller arrived in perfect condition. Overall, this is an excellent upgrade for any Xbox or PC gamer, and I highly recommend both the controller and buying it from Best Buy.

Overall, the product is in good condition. I found a minor flaw, but it's lightweight, so overall, the product was in perfect condition with all the buttons and good JoyCon movement. So, overall, the product came in good condition despite being used

Good out of the box. Has a highy quality feel, good ergonomics, and comfort. Unfortunately, it will drift and will get worse over time. Depending on what you play, it's disposable and won't last forever, especially for FPS games.

best xbox contoller for competitve gamers. has every single bit of customization u would need from the joy stick tension to the input control sensitivty. the desing of the controller makes it fit great in small and big hands and the paddles on the back never gt in the way. if u game this is a must have i personally do not and wont play if i dont have one of these. if u pick a diffrent controller u might as well be playing with a cast on!
