Out of all of my Xbox controllers, this one has managed to last the longest without developing the dreaded ghost drift issue that plagues regular controllers

A Good Controller, Responsive, Descent Battery Life, though I would install Grip Tape for Longer Play Sessions, Would Recommend.

I occasionally use this Xbox controller, but it feels great in the hands, with it's rubber handles. The omnidirectional D-pad is made of metal. Overall, this controller feels better than the stock Xbox series controller.

Generally I like it but I found the adjustable trigger on the two shorter settings can sometimes be unreliable. I've had many times I pulled the zoom trigger in Call of Duty and it started to zoom then didnt, leading to lost kills. Not sure if thats a general problem or just my unit. I got this on a good sale, otherwise its too expensive.

Great controller! Feels solid does everything it should. Best Buy made it easy to purchase also

Recommend, especially if you already have an elite or elite accessories. Without the accessories I do not think it is worth it. In my case i have an ild elite with stick drift and stuck buttons that is no longer under warranty. Bought this as a cheaper alternative as all of the additions work with it as well.

An excellent product from Xbox. I went in a little later to search for a new controller and found this one. When I went to checkout, it seemed as though my presence upset one of the employees, due to having one last customer for the night. There was no obvious signs of disrespect, just something I picked up while being there. Anyway, great product, great quality and I'm hoping it'll last for years to come.

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:)

Definitely worth spending the extra money to get the better quality controller. I’ve had 5 controllers before this one and they all seemed to wear out pretty quickly. I love how it’s customizable as well.

Love elite controllers they are expensive especially since I keep having drift stick issues with them

This is the best controller i’ve ever had. I’ve been so hesitant to buy it but then I went out and bought it and man it’s amazing. Not only does it have a good comfortable grip while gaming, BUT it also gives you a bit of personalization. I get that it’s pricy but if you’re on the fence, I would definitely recommend.

Good controller has worked fine for me ive had one in the past that randomly quit working so hooefully this one is different

Dont get me wrong, I LOVE this controller… although ive owned two of these and the left bumper is almost guarenteed to start sticking and not taking input. Forcing you to use your paddles as bumpers. Otherwise build quality is pretty good d pad and joysticks very responsive and adjustble triggers are a must. Just watch out for this flaw and be prepared for specificlly the left bumper to fail because it only takes just long enough fir it to get out of warranty.

I got this as a gift got my husband and this is the best controller he has gotten finally decided to get a good one and it turned out better than his cheaper other ones

Very good product, grips make for a very comfort hand feel, feels solid. However the Magnetic Dpad is not great if you're looking to play fighting games with it, as it has a chance of popping off from intense use. Most buttons feel very good, press smooth, and very nice clicks. However out of the box I noticed that my x button had some stick which seemed to go away after some use. I'd recommend getting the warranty incase of any defects.

I like that the charge lasts long I definitely want to buy another . It works great I haven't had any issues with I've had it for roughly a month now .

Great controller! But when that stick drift happens it’s a wrap. Worth getting the geek squad insurance so you walk in and out with a new controller without any fuss.

Its a really good controller but it wont let you mal the buttons theyre preset to the ABXY of the actual controller. I wanted one that could map out whatever button i wanted. But everything else abt it is great

I like many features about this but there are some things I wish I could further tweak. Pros: - So much button and stick customization - RGB light behind Xbox logo - Metal D-pad and back button triggers - Quality feel - Rubber grips do a good job of helping with “sweaty palm syndromes” by being a quick drying grid style rubber Cons: - Much heavier than any custom controller I’ve ever owned - Not personally a fan of back button trigger placement/configuration - RGB light not very vibrant or as expansive in colors available as it likes to advertise I think overall I’m happy with the purchase, but I don’t think I’ll buy it again. I will wait for what they make next or seek a different brand.

The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller is hands down the best controller I’ve ever used! From the moment I picked it up, the premium build quality was obvious. The textured grip feels amazing, and the adjustable tension thumbsticks provide incredible precision—perfect for competitive gaming. One of my favorite features is the remappable paddles on the back, which give me a serious edge in FPS and action games by allowing quick inputs without taking my thumbs off the sticks. The trigger stops also make a huge difference in fast-paced shooters! The 40-hour rechargeable battery life is fantastic, and I love the convenience of the included charging dock. Plus, the customization options in the Xbox Accessories app let me fine-tune everything to my exact preferences. Whether you’re a casual gamer or a hardcore competitor, the Elite Series 2 delivers an unbeatable experience. It’s a game-changer, and I can’t imagine going back to a regular controller after using it. Highly recommend!
