Customer Ratings & Reviews

Really the best option for Xbox controllers. If you are aggressive with your controllers like me plan on needing a new one every 1.5 years. Get the Elite controller that comes with the paddles, and then just get this core controller after you break a button.

Great grip and just has an overall nice feel to it. Doesn’t take batteries and comes with a charger and charging dock along with case and multiple options for analog sticks and dpad. Paddles on the back do take some getting used to and I started with only 2 but after some play time with them there’s no way you could go back to a regular controller which in a way is good and bad. If you’re looking for a way to help improve your game and have one of the hottest controllers on the market this if for you.

We have purchased many of these controllers. My boys have used them for years and are generally pleased with them but the need to be replaced frequently due to “glitching”. The service plan you can but is too expensive to be worth it and we typically don’t have issues with it until after the 1 year mark. But they are pleased enough to buy them again.

Just too dang inconsistent with the quality. This is my second Elite controller and it has stick drift within a few months of moderate use and the A button was spotty out of the box. I should have returned it and just gotten a regular controller because I don’t even use the paddle/bumper whatever you call them. I only liked the rubber grips and interchangeable sticks.

This is a very good controller. It took my gaming to a new level. It has a switch on the underside that shortens or lengthens the pull of the triggers. A really great feature. You also have the option to change thumbsticks that come with varying lengths and shapes. And it’s done magnetically. It also has 4 paddles underneath the controller that can be mapped for different functions...I found this too advanced for me. And perhaps the best feature feature is the way it feels in your hands, it’s much more comfortable than the one that comes with the Xbox.

This is a really great controller! The battery is amazing. I opened it up and started playing with it, and it took 4 days of heavy playing until I had to charge it for the first time. The controls feel great, and I love how the sticks can be changed out. The paddles are amazing, and will greatly increase your success in playing fps games.

Excellent weight. Seemingly durable(I’ve dropped it quite a bit but it is still early). Amazingly customizable and I can use it with my pc. Best purchase I’ve ever made.

Great controller overall, but they don't last as long as we expectes. My kids love the features and grip.

By far my favorite controller, this is the second one I’ve owned, both have worked phenomenally, paddles in the back are time saving

Now when i first saw the price i was shocked and almost turned away. But then i saw that there is NO battery pack and its just rechargeable. For this reason alone i bought it. I was pleasantly surprised however, the quality and feel of the controller is probably the best xbox even PlayStation controller i felt. It doesnt have the haptic feedback/adaptive triggers of the ps5’s controller, but as far as the xbox goes, if you have the money or this is on sale, id highly recommend it.

This is a great feeling controller. The functionality on the controller itself and also what you can do in the Xbox accessories app is nice. But if you play a lot, especially games like Fortnite that are demanding on the bumpers, they will fail in about 8 months. I've ran through 3 of these in about 16 months. ALWAYS get Geek Squad protection on these.

Best controller on the market. Buttons are extremely responsive. Trigger pulls now have two settings to shorten the pull resulting in quicker shots fired in first person shooters. Power button is a shorter push to turn on and off. It just feels like a high end controller. My old one has a thumb stick that would drift upwards when not in use, other buttons felt like you had to mash down on. This is more responsive, more clicky if that makes sense. If you owned the previous Elite you’ll love this even more. Carrying case allows you to charge while in case. Battery life doubled. This is a 10/10.

Controller is very high quality, all buttons and triggers function as they should. The magnetic change of sticks and D pad is a nice touch that feels secure and I have yet to have one come loose mid play. Case is nice quality and the ability to charge while inside is a nice feature. Price is higher than I would prefer but for a nice controller I can see the justification. Features are perfect for FPS titles but have yet to see a need on other games. If you mainly play FPS and want a quality controller I would recommend this.

As someone who prefers Xbox controllers over others, this controller is top of the line and gives you enough accessibility to customize and personalize your controller to your preferences with different presets so you can alternate between different game types and adjustable thumbsticks and triggers. The controller is of course just the elite series 2 controller but without the accessory kit and unfortunately it carries over the same issues the previous controller has. Thankfully, in my experience with this controller, I’ve had much less issues especially within the nearly two years I’ve had it. Would I recommend it? Absolutely… with the warranty. It feels as if they made these controllers with flaws or degradation over time and not built to last unless you’re extremely careful and lucky!

Worth the high price tag. The extra weight of this controller is Nice in hand. The customization of the back petals are great. The only bad part is the price.

I’m on my third elite controller… but the durability is waaaay beyond the scuf. If you’re looking for paddles and button mapping, don’t go anywhere else. Only gets 4 stars because I have had to replace two one for stick drift and one because the X A and RB all started to fail.

The Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller for Xbox is easily one of the best controllers you can buy if you’re serious about gaming. It feels substantially more premium than a standard Xbox controller, with a comfortable, thoughtful design that’s built to last and enhance your play.

I like the first elite controller, but it took a lot of abuse. The second elite controller has nice grips and texture on it. I bought an open box controller but so far it has everything and works perfect perfectly.

Been using these controllers for years and they never disappoint i can be rough on my controllers sometimes and its held up extremely well form all the drops squeezing and carelessness i have towards it gave me a solid 2 years without needing to get it replaced. (Only replacing because i dropped it down my stair case and the trigger got stuck but after some tinkering its all good now)

It feels much nicer than your run of the mill controller. As a casual gamer the back bunper buttons are kinda cool but take a lot of getting used to. The texturizes grips are great and the quality is good. Recommend grabbing on sale cause its not quite worth the full sticker price.
