Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this for my bf for Christmas & he’s very happy with it! He always had sensitivity issues with other controllers but not this one!

Feels great, needed something stronger than the base controller

Must have for gamers. This core elite series 2 doesn't come with case or paddles but is a replacement for the elite series 2 controller. In my opinion I would buy the extended warranty so when thumbsticks or bumpers wear out you can easily replace.

I've been skeptical over the years in paying the hefty price for an elite controller, but finally jumped the gun when they announced the series 2... and I'm glad i did. This controller has great ergonomics and grip texture, along with a plethora of features and settings, including hair trigger settings, multiple sticks, mapping, 4 quadrant vibrating settings, e.t.c. well worth it if you are a competitive gamer. No problems with drifting so far. Love that you can adjust the tension of the sticks as well.. overall, a great product from Microsoft!

Great Controller very comfortable. Only complaint i have is the rumble motors make a slight noise. Same thing with a series 2 core Controller i got. But after using it a while bout 20 hours ish the noise seemed to go away.

Definitely a good controller lot better then past elites

Longtime PlayStation owner here. I decided to get this controller to use on my gaming laptop and I was not disappointed. Makes the PS4 controller look kind of cheap. This controller is built rock solid. It’s heavy, which I like. It is also customizable in so many ways it’s kind of intimidating. Pairing with my laptop wasn’t terribly difficult, but it could have been a little smoother. It works though, and works well.

Overall just a fantastic controller. Great build quality, has some nice weight to it, and the accessory app allows for really awesome customization. I tell people not to expect the controller to be perfect; it's still suceptible to stick drift and buttons breaking over time. These minor issues are really only ever gonna happen if you're hard on the controller like I am, and the protection plan covers any conceivable issues.

I have been using the original elite controller for years. However, like all video game controllers, it has lost its responsiveness. I was so excited to see that Microsoft was bringing out a new model and preordered it immediately. The new version has great grip and even has grip on the triggers. Also, the new version has three trigger lengths instead of only two that were on the original. My only complaint is that the controller only comes with one tall stick. If you want both sticks to be tall, you can purchase the Kontrol Freak stick extenders.

At first I wasn’t used to the controls but as soon as I got adjusted it was the best. I can’t see myself go back to the original now.

Great product for a great price. Have had zero issues with it since purchasing! I will buy this over and over again if I ever do have an issue!

This controller is worth the extra money if you are a serious gamer. Definitely worth the extra, the features are the best in class.

Grandson loves it! It charges itself, has its own case, stores neatly away and stay safe. Totally worth it.

Elite controllers are the best way to go if you want to really get your game on lol

Love the grip! Perfect for casual playing with out the paddles!

Excellent controller for the low price I purchased it for.

I loved my elite controller, it felt good on the hands although after a while u can start to feel the weight but u can customize this controller to whatever feel better to you. I love that u can change pretty much everything. Would definitely recommend if u wanna step your game up a notch.

I was hesitant at first to spend the money on this controller but I have to admit that it has made a difference and enabled me to play faster.
