Customer Ratings & Reviews

I recently picked up the Microsoft Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller in blue, and it’s easily one of the best controllers I’ve ever used. Build Quality: The build is premium all around. The controller feels solid and has a nice weight to it, giving a sense of durability and precision. The textured grip is comfortable for long sessions, and the buttons, triggers, and joysticks are incredibly responsive. It’s clear that this controller is designed with gamers in mind. Customization: While this is the “Core” version, meaning it comes with fewer accessories compared to the full Elite package, you still get the elite performance. The ability to adjust trigger sensitivity and fine-tune the thumbstick tension makes a noticeable difference, especially in competitive games. For those who want extra paddles or swappable parts, they can be purchased separately, but the base controller alone still performs exceptionally well. Performance: The controller shines in responsiveness. Inputs feel faster and smoother compared to standard controllers, which is great for FPS, racing games, or any title where precision matters. I also appreciate the longer battery life—I’ve been able to go multiple gaming sessions without recharging. Design: The blue color is absolutely stunning and looks even better in person. It has a clean, vibrant finish that stands out without being flashy. It’s a great addition to any Xbox setup or for use with a Windows PC. Final Thoughts: If you’re a serious gamer looking for improved performance, comfort, and durability, the Elite Series 2 Core is worth it. Even without the extra accessories, this controller delivers on all fronts and feels like a huge upgrade over the standard Xbox controller. Highly recommended for gamers who want a competitive edge and a touch of style.

Wonderful upgrade from a standard controller, lots of customization with the joystick. The triggers helps to improve gameplay, comfortable, and very precise controller amazing to use. Got to use my points that added up as well, highly recommend!

I have this xbox elite controller 2 for almost 1 year and I take good care of it since I bought it still one my controller to use. I also bought the carrier case to take it with me on family trips love the color of it.

I am not a professional gamer. I picked this up because they didn't have any other controllers in stock. I didn't think much of this controller until I played around with it a bit and started noticing subtleties of ability to configure that made my experience more reactive and more involved or immersive. I didn't know the thumbsticks were magnetic and I didn't know that you could turn them left or turn them right to tighten up or loosen up the control of the stick which is pretty cool. The ability to select the trigger depth for quicker reaction is fun although I found I kept going back to not putting any tension on the trigger because it was just more comfortable to me. My only complaint is the design of the controller itself I feel that the black nubby grip sides should be a little bit longer I find after a few hours of gaming that I don't like the grip compared to the PlayStation experience. I don't agree that the price point should be $200, I think 125 would suffice but I don't know. I didn't realize until I bought this that this is not a removable battery type wireless charger, it's a Lithium-Ion rechargeable so you get eight solid hours of gameplay off this thing without having to recharge it. Compared to having to put batteries in your controller every so often, I love this lithium ion battery option. PlayStation gives you that by default but again subtleties here.

Controller is great!!! Would recommend for higher gameplay experience.

It's a very comfortable smooth remote. It's a very good casing very good remote controls response very good battery power

This control will last me for a week without charging it. I see a lot of people get stick drift but i have not experienced that at all yet. (Had it for 5 minths now) I did get thr 2 year geek squad protection just in case but so far amazing control. Kight need to break it in first because its stiff but eventually it gets better and better

I have been using this controller for over a year and still works like its brand new. Internal batteries so you just chage it after playing!

Been using the controller for week or so now. It’s good quality construction, good button press response, and the color is nice touch. I use it with my PC via Bluetooth and works great

This controller feels great in your hands. The adjustable triggers and extra paddles make gaming feel smoother and more precise. Worth it for serious gamers!

Great controller. Love the rumble and buttons and heavy feel. I just thought the whole controller was blue. It's just the face that's blue. The back is white.

I own 10 various xbox controllers including 3rd party "pro-style" controllers with buttons on the back. While many of them are good, non hold a candle to the elite 2 for pure comfort and performance. I think it's the perfect weight and just feels right. I do recommend getting the warranty as i did wear one out in about 22 months (hundreds of hours of Halo infinite) but the 2 year warranty i added at time of purchase was seemless to use. Just brought my old one in and walked out with a new one. For competitive play it's a must-buy.

What i liked about the controller is that it is rechargeable and i dont have to worry about batteries anymore.

Love it, great controller. 10/10 would recommend. It feels great, great quality product

Great product i will buy another one and I will recomend it to everyone. And Best Buy is awsome

The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Core Controller is awesome! The controls are super responsive, and you can customize everything, which is great for gaming. The battery lasts forever, so no need to charge it all the time. It's a bit pricey, but worth it for serious gamers. Highly recommend!
