Customer Ratings & Reviews

While I’m partial to the PS controllers due to not liking the feel of stock XBox controllers, this one is amazing. It’s got great weight, and feels like a premium product. The personalization options are great and it’s very easy to setup. If you play a lot of games, get one. Your hands deserve it.

You have to switch out your paddles to the new controller, but you can't switch out the joysticks from the older elite 1.

Ended up returning due to inability to find paddles locally however, this was a very nice controller. If the opportunity arises, I'll grab one again and throw some paddles on it.

All this remote control is really good. I use it all the time. It really lasts for 40 hours straight battery charge. You can mess with the settings of the remote control however you want it.

I had the first elite controller for a long time and really liked the controller, but it had a tendency to break with the rubber coming off and stick drift. This controller is a direct improvement on the first one and is so good so far. The buttons and analog sticks are much more responsive and customizable. Perfect for FPS.

Great purchase couldn’t be happier. All the customization it allows is undefeated.

great controller never let me down. never had an issue

Though a little on the pricey end, i love my elite series controller. The build and quality of the controller is perfect and it’s definitely the best looking and especially best feeling controller I’ve probably ever used. Would recommend to anyone willing to splurge for the best quality you can buy. Definitely do research on if you’re willing to deal with the problems the controller may get over time, mostly just bumpers being unresponsive for some reason. That is the only downside and I wish a newer model would address this problem in the future or else it would really really be a perfect controller.

Absolutely love this controller, I didn’t t think there would be much difference, or enough difference between this and the regular controllers to warrant buying the better one but wow!!! It’s soooooo much better than the regular ones. The respon time is so much faster, and smoother controls. Love it

Overall, I LOVE this controller, but I have three comments on it, one major: 1) Immediately upon purchasing it, the A button started sticking. I looked up the issue and this was somewhat common, but people said that it got better with wear over time. This was the case for me as well, so no more issues here 2) (the major one) At the shortest trigger pull setting, the right trigger squeaks SO LOUDLY, that others in the same party can often times hear it over my mic. It’s extremely annoying and I want to know if there is a way to fix this. 3) Not a huge deal, but the controller has an unnoticeable offset in the grips. This is only apparent when set on a flat surface. The controller will rock maybe 0.3-1.0mm. This may be the cause of that trigger squeak, though that is just a theory. These three negative comments aside, this controller is EXCELLENT. The grips are actually extremely durable and the surface stays pretty clean, with no real marring or scratches. Overall, I love this controller.

Bumpers stoped working but overall a really good controller

I didn’t really believe this controller could be much better than the stock version that comes with the Xbox X, but I was very wrong. This thing is smoother, faster, more comfortable and fun. It is far more responsive especially in multiplayer games than the original controller. Worth the $$

Great controller love the weight. Only thing I don’t like is that sometimes while gaming the sticks will start to unscrew mid gaming. Make sure you keep tight with the tool.

Great controller. It is expensive but worth the money.

Great hand feel, good response, and nice looking. Be prepared for some weird glitches starting out if you use this with a PC and Steam and Windows 11. I've seemingly settled mine down, but when I first started using the controller, hitting the "A" button would open the Xbox game bar...usually in the middle of the game I was playing...usually at the worst possible time. It's a known issue that has mostly been sorted out. That said - the first time you run into these kinds of issues will sour you a little on the controller. Price point is too high. This is an $70-80 controller in my opinion. Still good - just spendy and can have a lumpy first use experience for PC users.

by far one of the best controllers i've owned. I used to play with the PDP xbox controller with the mappable buttons on the back but stick drift on those are the worst after 2 weeks of using. and custom controllers from online such as scuf are too expensive. For the price I got for these, which was the open box-excellent, it felt brand new still and I got it for a steal with the price plus the discounts I got from my points here at bestbuy. so if you were to upgrade your xbox controller, this is the one to go for!! DID I MENTION, there are 3 different button profiles you can save for different types of games??! wish I got it sooner but glad i made the investment on this, LOVE IT!!!

While the Microsoft Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller is an exceptional gaming accessory, there is one aspect that could be improved upon. The controller's premium price point may be a deterrent for some gamers. The higher cost may limit its accessibility to a wider audience, especially those on a tight budget. However, considering the remarkable features and customization options it offers, the Elite Series 2 controller can still be seen as a worthwhile investment for serious gamers who prioritize performance and personalization. Ultimately, while the price may be a drawback for some, the overall quality and features of the controller make it a compelling choice for dedicated gamers.

I bought the elite series 2 controller on open box for half the price as new. Item arrived in 1 day from purchase and was 100% complete. (No box but had case and all pieces)

Great remote this one is actually worth the money. I’m going to go buy one more even though my warranty was accidentally cancelled. it’s all good because if I hadn’t dropped it Hella hard running to get the dog trying to get my food I’d still be gaming still. Even After drop still no stick drift only issue was lt trigger damage won’t work on tier 3 sensitivity still works not perfect. I don’t know the difference from this and the core but I know I like this specific remote please keep this one in stock Best Buy

My son in law loves it. The separate case that it sits in charges the controller and it has different knobs and buttons to change out.
