Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great controller, but very prone to stick drift as well as rb or r3 going bad in my experience. Get the warranty.

It’s cool but doesn’t come with the extra pro sticks if you were wondering

Love the controller. Hate that the charging port stopped working only a little over a month after purchase. Microsoft is going to fix the issue, though, so 4 stars it is.

The Microsoft Elite Series 2 controller offers a range of customization options and impressive performance. However, over time, the grips on the controller tend to wear out, which affects the overall comfort and grip during gameplay. Additionally, some users have reported joystick drift issues, where the analog sticks register movement even when not being touched. While these drawbacks can be frustrating, the controller still delivers on performance and customization. It's important to consider the potential issues when making a purchasing decision.

I've always like Xbox controllers since I have bigger hands so they're more comfortable. And this is no exception. However, I've never had a controller get stick drift so fast. That and it sometimes disconnects while in use. Went and bought an 8 BitDo Ultimate instead and much prefer that.

I love this controller. The ease of use, customization and feel is on point. Xbox didn’t disappoint with this one.

Great for computer, and very easy to use. I would recommend to buy the components as well

I purchased this specifically because it offers three levels of tension for the joysticks. As someone who has hand tremors due to Parkinson’s disease, adjusting the joystick tension so it is harder to move reduces the negative effect of my tremors. I also like having an additional position for trigger pull depth. To further fine tune the triggers you can us the Xbox app to change the point at which the trigger reacts to your pull. I created a dead spot at the beginning of my left trigger pull because I was unintentionally putting tension on the trigger. So if I jumped in Destiny 2 it would cancel my jump. Now I have no issues. On the downside after a few days of use, the right trigger started squeaking verhy loudly. I searched YouTube and found a video that recommended using a dry lube like WD40 Teflon spray. Worked like a charm for me. Microsoft only offers a 90 day warranty so I recommend buying the extended warranty from Best Buy.

Great controller with a decent amount of heft to the weight and tightness of the thumbsticks and buttons. Really provided an edge to my playing!

Love it helps me and makes gaming so much easier it’s worth buying

I am extremely happy with my purchase of the Microsoft Elite Series 2 controller. The build quality is top-notch and it feels great in my hands. The interchangeable thumbsticks and paddles allow for customization to fit my personal gaming style. The added Bluetooth feature makes it easy to connect to my PC and mobile devices. The battery life is also impressive, lasting for well over a week with regular use. The software that comes with the controller, allows me to remap buttons and set up profiles for different games. The only downside is the price, but it's worth the investment for the level of precision and control it provides. I highly recommend this controller to any serious gamer.

If you want the best and most durable controller on the market for your gaming needs, look no further. I had a normal Xbox One X controller and I liked the improvments that they made when the Series X came out however I couldn't shake the feeling that it was an overall cheap feeling controller. That's when I had to pony up for something with a little more weight and durability. The weight of the controller is perfect and the rubberized palm areas are great for grip. I don't really play fighting games so I don't use the D-Pad piece that you see in the pictures, just the normal one you would see on any controller. The ability to change the trigger stops at 3 different positions is very nice and a great addition from the older Elite controller. Overall everything has a nice click and solid feel, hopefully with the right care this thing will be the last controller you'll ever need.

Great overall, however a few months in the buttons are starting to stick

Love having paddles especially when it comes to competitive gaming is helps the overall game play.

this what my son needed to make his gaming experience better

The elite contoller is the best xbox controller I’ve used. I also have the all black one. Makes gaming fun. Will last if you take care of it.

If you want a better controller than the already good Xbox controller, this is it. Any tech site you search will say the same thing. The biggest pros are 1. Thumbstick and paddles customization 2. Battery back up 3. Wireless charging 4. In built battery 5. Save 3 profiles The cons are 1. The price. This is too overpriced. Like, too much. I bought this in sale and still think it's pricey. Sucks. I don't have bottomless wallets. Maybe I am just whining. 2. Despite having apparently excellent build quality, durability still seems to be an issue as reported by various outlets. Please don't take my word for it. Do your research. 3. Wireless connection stutters when battery drops below 30%. This is jarring and makes me switch controllers while I charge this.

Good contoller love the customizable abilties and short stop trigger very nice and high quality

Awesome controller with built in re-chargeable batteries via usb-c cable. Was easy to pair and start playing on XBOX One.

Stick drift ? , naaa had these for years and solid as a rock
