Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a really nice controller. Smoother and more precise than my old xbox one controllers. Apparently the "Core" version doesn’t come with any parts for some of the extra levers, so I had to drop $20 online for some aftermarket levers for the back of the controller.

Love the custimization options but the official microsoft app that goes along with it needs a little work. Also my left thumb stick constantly unscrews itself for some reason. Other thing is i have maybe slightly above average hand size but certainly not huge. Yet when you get some paddles and install those they constantly get in the way of your grip. Even without them the controller feels small. I will need to buy a grip sleeve or something. Other than those 3 things i dont have any problems with the controller itself. I would say overall 2 of my complaints like the app and grips are just personal issues that might be because of my own preference. The 3rd which is the left thumb stick unscrewint itself and feeling like it gets stuck sometimes i would say is manufacturer error or something.

Way better than the original. Textured handles feel great, it looks like is a solid piece unlike the original that started to lose the glue after a few months of usage then the rubber around the handle would bubble up and come off the controller. The triggers have 3 levels of resistance. The control sticks can be adjusted too... Very useful. The battery lasts a while even after long periods of gameplay on Elder Scrolls Online. It's worth the money. But if your original is in perfect working conditions then save the money and keep using that one.

Amazing controller, I love the feel and the weight. I would definitely recommend this controller.

After using the controller for a few months, I have to say it’s great! The customization options for the analog sticks is good. But this really shines for me using Steam input on my PC to map the back paddles for additional button presses and shortcuts for games. Haven’t had any quality control issues yet as others have said online.

Very good controller. Feels really premium and very customizable!!

This is a well-built gamepad that feels very premium, has high-quality materials, and a wide range of adjustments. Very happy with the purchase!

My son broke the first elite controller. Bought an open box deal to save a lot money. Works flawless.

By for the best controller for the XBOX Series X & S. I have multiple controllers from hi-end to cheap and I've found the elites customizable options for me are better. Also has great battery life around 35 hrs of hard core gaming. It's more expensive then most, but cheaper and better in my opinion, than more expensive cintrollers with the same features.

I’m using this controller for Steam gameplay on the PC. Works really well and I’ve had no issues.

Controller is fantastic! After two years it has worked really well. Little stick drift in the right stick, but nothing that renders it unusable.

Excellent controller with great options for elite gamers. Love the grip in handles.

Feels good. I like the weight and the haptics but the stick drift drives me crazy. Brand new and even when customizing the controller through the Xbox it recognizes out of the box there is stick drift.

Still the best controller for Xbox and pc. A little pricey but worth it

The Elite controller is unmatched. My gameplay has increased. From a quicker trigger to more responsive joysticks. I would recommend to buy two.

I am a Scuf user. Got gen1 Elite controller 2 or 3 years ago and hated the paddles. Went back to Scuf. Wanted a new Scuff, but they were out of stock for Xbox. Decided to go with Gen2 Elite and was impressed. Paddles weren't as sensitive as the Gen1s. That's was my main gripe, love the improvements from the 1st elites. If they change the paddles to be on the back like the Scufs I would stay with the elite controllers. But will be buying a new Scuf soon, but the elite will definitely stay as back up.

I love Xbox series 2 elite controllers. They are smart, ergonomic, built rock solid, smooth and sleek. If there are any controllers better I dont look for them.

Best controller for gamers out there! No issues after 3 months now.

I've gotten many different types of controller brands. Gotta say that this was on my #1 spot on my list immediately. Just needs a little more customization when it comes to button binding.

I love this controller. Great fit for my hands. I bought this to replace an older Elite (4 years old) that was having some issues. I signed up for Best Buy Total before I bought this one.
