Customer Ratings & Reviews

i have had this controller for 6 weeks and already right trigger is already sticking. Now Microsoft wants me to send it in and be without my $180 plus tax 200 dollar controller for 4-5 weeks. Unreal

Sleek controller but way too expensive, need to pay more to actually customize it and use extra triggers, and right bumper already broken in less than a year.

This controller is not that reliable and is not worth the money to many glitches

Don't buy it. Poor design = stick drift. Class action brought up against MS for selling elite with this problem (public knowledge).

Bumper last go out every 3 months 4th one in a year that being said there so good I can’t help myself but keep buys more

Not even 30 days can’t return and has stuck drift and right bumper doesn’t work

My controllers left trigger has something wrong with it where it doesn’t always register trigger pulls, and my Y button sticks, very upsetting when spending this much money on a controller....

So I was totally upset with this purchase because I was told by a Best Buy employee that it came with the carrying case and extra buttons got it home and was just the controller like ok great

I got distracted by the color This isn't the regular style

Got it on sale for a christmas present and my little brother loves it! It doesnt come with paddle attachments but they’re super cheap on amazon.

I have 2 of these. On the first one, the up on the left joystick doesn't work. You have to move it around in the up position to get it to move forward. The second one the left bumper started sticking and now you have to press it really hard to get it to work. You'd think for $180 you'd get a quality controller, but it's just a regular junk controller with some extra buttons and grips.

Got BBY to price match so this was a steal! Just having the ability to recharge is good. Wish basic controllers were rechargeable like the PS5.

Store experience was horrible. Upper management should be embarrassed to keep brick and mortar open if all their stores look like jails for products

Very happy woth purchase, comes with chargable battery so no need to buy it from third party. Best thing is you can move buttons arounds , Yay!

Controller sticks started drifted not even 30 days old yet.. i would recommend get the geek squad protection becouse these Controller's are good but dont last long

Let’s start at the beginning, I've owned nearly each version of the Xbox controllers. From the day one gen 1, the gen 2 Bluetooth, up to the series x/s controllers. Personally, the controller is a bit pricy for what you get but its still worth the price in the end. Compared to the gen 1 and gen 2 controllers (only difference is that the gen 2 has Bluetooth support with mobile devices and your pc) And the series x/s which moved to the superior C-Type port (finally!) and has textured grips. Keyword being textured, its still plastic so your palms can still get sweaty on intense or prolonged gaming sessions. Why did I write all this? Well to make a comparison from the standard controllers I've owned to the Elite Controller Series 2 that I now currently use. Myself personally I play a lot of PC games and racing simulators, so the paddles really help when playing manual versus having to use the buttons or bumpers. Also like the switch pro controller, you can connect it to your android device for various mobile games such as Fortnite and COD Mobile. However, I mainly use the Bluetooth paring to connect it to my pc for games that just personally feel better with a controller, such as Rivals Of Aether, Monster Hunter: World, and Saints Row. The stick customization is what really got me to buy the controller, it comes with different sticks of varying lengths and types. Most importantly, the controller uses real, that's right real rubber! For me who plays long and grinding game sessions when my palms can get sweaty, depending on the intensity of the game. Having rubber grips on the top and bottom of the controller is what I really enjoy. being rubber and not plastic, my hands hardly sweat at all. And lastly the internal battery, omg you have no idea how excited I was when I learned that it has an internal rechargeable battery that has up to 40 hours on a full charge. No need to buy a 12 pack of AA's just for my controller. Now for the controllers cons. First off is the price, sheesh $179.99 is pretty pricey, and it goes up to $200 if you get a warranty. (which I highly recommend if your controller starts acting up or breaks) Second is the Bluetooth paring, don't get me wrong, when connected to an Xbox it's absolutely flawless. But when I connect it to my PC, sometimes it starts having input lag. Depending on the game, this can decide whether you live or die, I'll use Monster Hunter: World as an example. I can't tell you how awful it is to be fighting a Tempered Rajang and have your controller start lagging just to get killed by his mouth beam. But that's an easy fix. As someone who uses galaxy phones, I just grab the charger from my phone and use it as a wired connection from the controller to the pc. This fixes the issue but it's a minor problem with a simple work around so its not too much of a deal breaker. Overall, I would suggest that you should buy this controller IF you're in need of a new one.

In two controllers i had the arroz are pressed to the left

I gave this to my grandson for christmas. Here we are at Jan 25 and it’s already malfunctioning. He loved it until it broke and since I did read the reviews before I purchased it, noting the high incidence of failure, we did have the warranty. But to have to replace it after only a month indicates a poorly designed and tested product. Also the warranty can apparently only be used once unless s new warranty is purchased. For another $40.

Great controller. Waited over a year for review. Top RB button stopped working, unless it is smashed. These things should last longer.

The left bumper on my first controller stopped working. It conveniently stopped working after the warranty had expired. Bought another one. Guess what. The left bumper stopped working AGAIN and right after the warranty expired. Do not fall for the trap. Do not buy this garbage. They are stealing from you
