    The controller is built much better than a standard xbox controller. The sticks are also a huge improvement over the standard controllers.

    Great controller. The adjustable triggers and back paddles are why I purchased, but the different joysticks and how customizable the sensitivity and dead zones are is a massive benefit as well.

    Great controller feels 10x better in the hand than the standard controller. And the d-pad is quite.

    These are great so far. No stick drift and responds quickly. I really like that we can charge them while we are playing.

    In my years of gaming, I've tried numerous controllers, but the Elite controller stands head and shoulders above the rest. Its exceptional design, build quality, customization options, wireless connectivity, and impressive battery life make it the ultimate gaming companion. Whether you're a casual gamer or a competitive enthusiast, this controller will undoubtedly enhance your gaming experience and take your skills to the next level. Trust me, you won't be disappointed with the Elite controller. It's a true game changer

    Stick drift, buttons breaking from simple use (triggers and peices rattling) all the common issues from a classic xbox controller but in a more expensive package. Go buy a scuff controller with Hall Effect joysticks and mechanical buttons instead.

    Great concept, marred by QC issues

    The 1st elite controller was 1 that I absolutely adored. Until about 6 months of ownership and the right stick started to drift to the point of un-playable. When the new 1 was announced, I thought I would give it a shot. It arrived on release day and worked great for the 1st couple of hours. Then I noticed that the A started to stick or just not register. This is apparently a known issue and MS support is supposed to take care of it. Time will tell... Aside from this, if you were a fan of the 1st, this should be an upgrade. The rubber grip fully wraps and is something really special. The 3rd trigger adjustment is actually really cool for fine tuning. For example, on the left trigger I have it 1 click for a slightly shorter stop. On the right, I have it maxed out for the shortest possible pull. On call of duty, I am able to fire a pistol or marksman rifle faster as the trigger resets faster. The sticks are still a highlight with adjustable tension, and different sticks let you adjust the length for speed or accuracy. The D-pad is still probably the best on any controller. It's accurate and can be swapped from the disk to a traditional 4 way in a matter of seconds. Lastly, the charging. USB C is the way of the future and its in there. The carrying case also allows for charging. Great controller, but the QC issues really bring it down.

      Hey Jack,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback on the new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. We're glad that you're enjoying it for the most part, but sorry to hear there's an issue with the A button. If you haven't already done so, we recommend exchanging it for a new one at Best Buy. Otherwise, please reach out to Xbox Support for assistance here: https://aka.ms/AA4w2z7

      Hope that helps,

    The best controller out there for X Box Series X & S consoles! Tons of customization for the controller. The added details and buttons make it comfortable for hours of gaming. The grip is superb, the interchangeable buttons are amazing. Never going back to the controllers that come with the console. Liked it so much I bought 2 for my setup (bedroom & living room Series X consoles). Also, I like the case and charging station that the Elite has, the ‘Core’ model doesn’t come with it.

    Purchased for our Grandson for Christmas (Seemed to be in short supply at other stores). He really loves this controller because it has features that other did not. (Buttons, charging pack option, etc.). Hey, He's happy so we are happy.
