Customer Ratings & Reviews

I like the controller, it feels great, responsive, heavy in my hands the grip on the handles is nice. BUT, and this is on me, I didnt realize it didnt come with all the add ons to make an elite controller, that would be sold separately ($30 i think) so not terrible. Also, the select button is hard to press to get to menus in game. I usually have to hit it twice to get it to register.

Most comfortable controller ive ever used. Extremely durable. Buttons and Joysticks are solid and responsive. Battery life is very impressive.

This controller is the best thing on the market. But it has the one flaw that will kill it if you don’t baby this thing. Stick drift. So many are returned because of stick drift. I already returned one and tried a couple different controllers which all feel cheap in comparison. My best advice. Treat this thing like a child to get the most life out of it. Don’t let it drop on the floor at all. That may have been what killed my last one.

Weight feels premium, I love the rubber on the hand grips. The adjustable triggers are great for Call of Duty and other FPS shooters. The small metal details all over really make it feel like an upgrade over the standard. The built in rechargeable battery and USB - C charging are great and the battery life is long. The only issue I had was that the X button was sticking slightly when I first received the controller however that issue resolved itself and the controller has been great since.

I had the black Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller for at least 3 years when the left bumper slowly stopped working. After researching online, there did not seem to be an easy fix. I loved the feel of the controller as well as how it handled and the myriad of fine tune adjustment sone can make compared to the regular wireless controller. I also loved how well it fit in my hands and comfortable it feel in addition to responsiveness. I kept an eye on a new controller with BB, as I am a BB Total member and I try to make any electronics purchase through BB for the added protection. I grabbed this controller at the incredible price of $109.99 new, and the avg. sale price was $124.99. I had $15 in certificates as well to use, so extra great deal. Ordered online and ready within an hour. Enjoying playing Xbox games again! I appreciate the deals with BB!

Upon multiple attempts of buying/returning different controllers of all brands I finally broke down and bought an Elite. I’ve always thought about buying one but never brought myself to do so because of the price point. Honestly 1000 % worth it! Everything else I had either had some kind of issue a few weeks in or just didn’t feel right. The Elite controller definitely feels amazing especially with the rubberized grips, it doesn’t slide nor do I feel myself having to grip the controller any tighter than normal to keep it steady. The thumb sticks take a little getting used to as they’re a little heavier and have a different kind of bounce back (in a good way). It’s really not too heavy at all for a wireless controller and this is coming from an avid player who prefers wired! Happy Gaming!

A little pricey, but if you can afford it, I would recommend it. It has a nice grip, feels weighty, and you can swap out pieces easily. The removable pieces are magnetic. No fear of accidentally breaking the plastic. Nothing about the controller feels cheap. It's strong and durable. It is equipped with a rechargeable battery, and the life of the battery lasts a long time. This controller comes with its own case which makes for great storage. A great controller if you are a serious gamer.

If you like the ability to customize your controller with different analog stick options, interchangeable D-pads, four additional buttons, and being able to tweak both the triggers and the analog sticks then this is the controller for you. Even with the pretty high price tag, this is a good controller thanks to its customization, rubber grips, and not have to deal with batteries anymore. Plus it comes with a carrying case that can also charge the controller as well in addition to holding all the left over accessories. This controller for sure feels premium thanks especially to how it’s made. The bumpers, triggers, D-pad, and the analog sticks are made of metal which gives it a heavier feel in comparison to your average Xbox controller if you like having more weight in your controller. Looking past the price point, this controller cones highly recommended to hardcore Xbox gamers and for those who love customization.

Great controller. Love the ability to customize and the weight of the controller. The rechargeable battery already included in the controller is nice as well.

I have mixed reviews with this though overall positive. From a gaming standpoint: fantastic controller. It feels great to use, really good grip, I love the paddles on the back and the customization. I like that you get extras to make it more customized and things can be easily swapped out. I have an issue with the quality control. I had to return my first one because I got stick drift. My second one also has a very slight stick drift. It doesn’t bother me much so I might keep this one vs swapping it out again. The first one never had issues pairing Bluetooth once turned on. The second one tends to not always connect and I have to re-pair through Bluetooth, a little inconvenient. For the price, I would expect it to be perfect.

I have the original Xbox elite controller and absolutely loved it. Still not a single issue with it besides the grips starting to peel but that’s after a couple years. The new elite series 2 feels so good in the hands and the fact that the battery is built in makes it even better. All the options of fine tuning to you’re liking is incredible for whatever games you play. I don’t have full use of my right hand in my pinky and ring finger so a controller like this with the paddles on the back make it easier for multitasking while gaming.

This is the best controller for gaming. I use this primarily on PC, not on the Xbox. Sony's cheap uncomfortable design is just lackluster for gaming for extended hours and causes your hand to cramp up, which can be painful. The regular Xbox Controller is ok and comfortable, But this Elite Series 2 is amazing as its even more comfortable and just feels amazing in every aspect. From the smooth upgraded joysticks, to the rubberized grip on the handles. Most of the parts can be swapped out as well which is a huge plus if you are as aggressive a gamer as I am. I'd recommend this over any controller on the market. Definitely worth the extra cost.

This controller is so much better, than the one it replaced!! My old controller keep having issues with buttons and controller sticks sticking! I very satisfied with the performance of this controller!! It was a great purchase!!

Great buy. One of the best controllers you can get out there, because of the possibilities. Of rearranging the buttons for your gaming style. It was surprisingly light for A controller Also had nice grips for the hands to hold on to. I had broke part of my left hand pinky bone, and because of the ability to change the placement of buttons, thanks to the paddles on the controller, I was able to keep playing the games that I liked especially since a new release came out. And I couldn't quite hold the controller right for the one side. But because of the remapping of the buttons, I was able to still play

This is a great controller! The charge lasts a long time. I like the grip and the weight of it. The different settings on the underneath are nice too especially for racing games. Very easy to pair to my console. I also like that you can change out the joysticks as well. Highly recommend!

I have had my controller for over a month and barely had to charge it yesterday! I use my controller almost daily for about 3 hours. I love how the controller feels in my hands. Perfect for control customizations. Recommend 10/10. #TeamElite:)

Love the look and feel of the elite Controller and the built in rechargeable battery and life is great. The customization of the controller is also great. Now for the bad news this will always break and usually in under a year so you must get an extended warranty to make this product work. I have had 10 of these of which I bought 2 so I could have a backup when the other one is getting replaced or fixed. They break easily because they are so heavy you absolutely can. It drop them period. Stick drift is also very common and I probably put more tension than most on the sticks. I only recommend these if you get them on sale under 100 bucks and also if an extended warranty is available at a good price, otherwise do not buy. I will say this is the last pair I will buy and will try a higher quality brand in the future.
