Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great controller simply returned it for the regular elite 2 with the case and paddles

While I’m partial to the PS controllers due to not liking the feel of stock XBox controllers, this one is amazing. It’s got great weight, and feels like a premium product. The personalization options are great and it’s very easy to setup. If you play a lot of games, get one. Your hands deserve it.

This version of the controller is much better than the first generation. Buttons and controller feel premium. By far the best controller I've ever used. We now own 3 elite controllers

I bought this as a gift for my grandson and he says it's "Fire" The difference between this and amstandard controller is like night and day

My go 2 controller! Don't really use the back paddles. I like them for the premium feel and heaviness.

Absolutely love it and the warranty through geek squad give you piece of mind if you drop it or something happens to it

Absolutely love this controller, I didn’t t think there would be much difference, or enough difference between this and the regular controllers to warrant buying the better one but wow!!! It’s soooooo much better than the regular ones. The respon time is so much faster, and smoother controls. Love it

Great product, if you already have an elite controller take the paddles off the back side and switch them over and save a few bucks.

PROS * The overall feel is much better than the standard controllers * the ABXY paddles are great to use as long a you get used to actually using them. The only time I don't use them is when I have to have a finger on a button to tap fast several times in a row since thumb speed is much faster than trying to press the paddle button with middle or ring finger. In most scenarios is gives you the ability to keeps your thumbs both on the thumb-sticks while being able to press ABXY. * replaceable thumb-stick grips is nice. CONS * The thumb-sticks wear out after a while and then start to have drift issues or inaccurate movement. This can be fixed by refurbishing the controller to have new thumb-stick part on the internals but that either needs money or skills to do. * my first 2 elite controllers lasted about 2 years each before I started having thumb stick issues. Both issues were on the left stick used for movement. Will be curious to see if this one is any different. * expensive

Don’t get me wrong 5 stars all day, but there is a quality control issue. It took me 3 elite 2 controllers to find one that didn’t have an issue with the A button sticking. Now that I have no issue I love it. It is everything you wanted the elite to be. Being able to make the the trigger button as quick as a mouse click really makes this a much more competitive play up against a keyboard and mouse.

I LOVE this controller! The controller has some weight to it, which I like. The paddles and d-pad are made of metal and very sturdy. The stem of the sticks are also metal. The paddles, sticks, and d-pad are easy to switch out, no tools needed. Programming controller is super easy using the app on the Xbox or computer. I have smaller hands and the position of the paddles that come with the controller aren't bad. I have switched mine out to use the scuff ones and the difference is marginal between the two. If you need to feel the click of the paddles (I personally don't care about that clicky feel) then switching to the scuff ones is for you. I am pretty rough on my controllers and so far so good. If you are in the market for a premium controller then this one is a great option. I wouldn't pay any mind to the bad reviews they probably just had a bad one, which happens in manufacturing. I had no issues connecting it to my new Series X and it works flawlessly. Get this controller you won't be sorry

All the time I had bought low quality controls, now that I have this I can say that when you buy quality you feel the difference. Much more efficiency, high battery performance.

Love this elite series controller was using the regular controller until now.

I do not know how to use all of the back buttons on the controller. It comes with one little magnetic piece to connect it but that's it. Other than that it is definitely a solid controller

This was bought for my grandson for Christmas. He loves the controller. It’s wireless so it gives you a little more freedom of movement.

My fiancé bought me this controller for a Christmas present and i love it. How it made and feels in my hands is incredible. No stick drifting smoth button everything i look for in a controller. Im getting use to the paddles on the back. Would recommend for any gamer.

The controller is amazing until it starts having issues. I've had mine for a month and its got stick drift in the right analog. The RB button will register twice when pressed once, sticking buttons, its sad. I love this controller but it would get 5 stars if it was built with better quality internally.

Clean sexy controller , too bad Microsoft cheaped out and couldn’t add the additional paddles and accessories. If you go out and buy them separately you end up spending more than If you just bought the elite 2 controller

My son loves it... Really brought his game up to another level

the grips are great and the ability to change the trigers sensitivities for faster reactions is great. overall a premium product for sure
