Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very good controller very smooth and feel great .. my son loves the back paddles

Overall feel, battery life and adjustable triggers are good and the controller feels good in hand. The only issue is the presence of some stick drift already after returning one with stick drift within just a couple weeks. One trigger is already emitting an occasional squeak that sounds like a spring ready to pop.

The elite controllers are so great because of the extra weight and the overall feel. Plus the color pops. Worth it if you don’t need the paddles or extra sticks!

So far, the stick-drift hasn't killed the first one I've bought. The ability to configure and change the buttons to how you want is great. The mouse-button-click for the triggers are the best for me. And they are considerably cheaper than controllers with the same king of ideas/implementations. I do wish that Microsoft offered more colors than just 3, or the ability to change the faceplates to the color(s) that you'd want.

This is the second one of these I have purchased. My one son liked it so much that I purchased another for my other son. It's a bit pricy, however it seems that all remotes are going up in price. If you are going to spend the money and are looking for bang for your buck, this seems to be a great choice according to my son's who gain all the time.

Superior to the normal controller plus it can be easily recharged.

Works very well and has very good build quality. The paddles on the back make it very easy to keep you fingers on the joystick while using abxy. VERY pricy though. This is a premium priced product that really is not needed for most people.

Great controller but after heavy use buttons can get soft to push along with paddles and stick drift is very common, would definitely purchase the protection plan when pirchasing any controller or heavily used items

Controller feels great and has stellar customization. Unfortunately stick drift started after only one week

I absolutely love the quality of the previous Elite controllers but this was worth the upgrade. The battery life is amazing, the weight is well balanced and does not cause fatigue. The packaging seems hefty but that is because the carry case has a battery charging. Also love that the carry case has a pass through port to charge the controller while having it protected in the case.

The remote is very good and works great for the most part except every once in a while the X button is a little iffy and when I'm holding x it says I have released the "x" button so I have to restart holding x. Other than that everything works as it should and it is worth it just for not needing batteries

Great controller. I've tried multiple 3rd party controllers and always come back to the Elite series 2.

Love the controller. It does exactly what it says and does it better than the first generation Elite controller. Definitely get the replacement plan offered by Best Buy! If you game hard, you won’t regret it. Let’s face it, stick drift and button issues are a real thing no matter how much money you spend!

Absolutely love this controller. I use it for my Xbox but I also use it for CODM on my iPhone, It's a game changer for that game. it has a good feel to it the paddles are in a good area and they are easy to use. I would tell anyone to pick this up if you can it's worth it.

Fast , easy , got what i wanted .nice discount compaired to normal cost

3rd elite controller. This is my 2nd core. After about 18 mos, all xbox controllers experience stick drift if used regularly. This one is no different. The adjustments these allow help diminish the effect over time. Love them and won't use anything else.

It’s an elite what do you expect 10/10 controller all around

After months of use I would say that was disappointing a little for the price. I only bought this when I had extra cash and wanted to test a "premium" controller. Control response time was really good, the case is good, alongside the ability to customize anything about the controller. However where it fails is the extra paddles of the controller and even if it's removable. It kinda leaves opening in the back of your controller. Leaving it exposed to dirt and oils from your hands. For people who grew up in the old Xbox era controllers the paddles get in the way more than an added benefit. Otherwise good controller but just a preference issue.

The controller is great and works...when you do not get a defective one. We had to go through 3 before getting a good one. Some of the issues are: The A, B, and X button would get stuck. You would press it in and it would stay in. The trigger locks come off. They still work, but the rubber piece came off. The right trigger you would press it in and it would stick randomly. Now the good: *Charging is great. Never a problem. One charge would usually last 40 hours, we've never tested this because we put it on the charger after each use. So, it will last for probably that long. *It feels comfortable in your hand, especially playing long gaming sessions. *It has a long range. You can sit a good distance away from Xbox without any connection issues. *Syncing is great. Never had a problem with that and it is very easy to do.

Love the integrated rechargeable battery. New features like 3 programmable mapping on the controller and new stick tension adjustments. Much improved from previous Elite.
