    Elite Series 2 Review

    Great controller with wonderful battery life. Ergonomic grip is much better than the base controller. Wish this one came with the kit like the original elite controllers did.

    Overall I like the controller. It has a heftiness to it that I find comforting, and the textured rubber grips are nice. My only issue is that it has slots to put paddles on the back for more controls/buttons on the controller but it doesn’t come with the paddles like the original elite controller did.

    I bought the controller since my old series 2 was broken so i bought this one and it is definitely worth it. Besides the color not being the same there isnt much of a difference controller wise.

    The elite series 2 controller is an excellent upgrade from the standard Xbox controller. The addition of the paddles on the back help to make FPS games like Call of Duty flow easier when you do not have to move your thumb off the analog sticks to reload. The variety of accessories that can be bought for this Core edition makes it an easy buy.

    Great option for replacing Elite Series II

    Great replacement for the Elite Series II. With the known wear out of the Elite Series parts, this is a great option to replace just the controller. If you’re a first time buyer, highly recommend finding replacement accessories off Amazon. Allows ESII users to replace their controller for more affordable price.

    The Xbox Elite Controller is a top-tier gaming accessory, boasting excellent build quality, customizable components, and enhanced features like swappable thumbsticks, D-pads, and programmable rear paddles. Its ergonomic design ensures comfortable gaming, while the customization options cater to various playstyles, making it a fantastic choice for both casual and competitive gamers.

    Good controller with some weaknesses

    This is my third elite controller, and it works well. It feels good to use and does what it's meant to do. I docked it by one star because my past two have had the shoulder buttons fail, which seems to be a recurring problem for these controllers. I have yet to see if this issue has been addressed by Microsoft or if the same problem is still present.

    Higher Cost=Poorer Quality

    I never do reviews, but I guess I’m starting. I love these controllers. Works perfectly on Xbox or PC + paddles. But. As the price gets higher the quality becomes more of an issue. 3rd controller that has fallen apart, this one did last a good year and a half which I’m happy about but this controller specifically the grip around it absolutely wears out before the first year of use. 2 of the controllers I’ve had plastic breaks inside the controller without raging being involved (hasn’t effected use). The response mechanism for the triggers is probably the worst, maybe works for a week and wears its self out unless you’re super soft on the triggers all the time. It’s just no longer worth the cost when it seems it’s only designed to last until the warranty runs out. I don’t care to buy new controllers obviously but “premium” controllers should be able to withstand heavy use and not naturally fall apart within a year. IMO.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
