Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love it! Excellent controller and much better than the original. After a year I am starting to get a little stick drift which is annoying

I got my brother the Microsoft Elite Series 2 controller for Christmas, and it's a good boost. The build quality seems strong and classy, and the adjustable thumbsticks and rear paddles are quite handy for gaming. My brother claims the battery life is also very good. It's a tad expensive, but considering how customizable it is, it's worth it. He loves it, therefore I'd say it was a great gift!

I purchased this item as a replacement for the Elite Series 2 Controller that suffered from sever stick drift. Since I was past the warranty period I figured why not? Great feel and weight. Definitely worth the purchase. I was able to use the paddles and charging case from the Original Elite Series 2 controller.

3rd elite controller. This is my 2nd core. After about 18 mos, all xbox controllers experience stick drift if used regularly. This one is no different. The adjustments these allow help diminish the effect over time. Love them and won't use anything else.

This controller took time to get use to but once you get the hang of it it makes game play so much easier

Well, let me just say that I hesitated for years on getting this controller because of the cost and also because I'm not very big on many controller based games on PC... However, recently I purchased Star Wars Squadrons on PC and let me tell you that this controller is a GAME CHANGER for that game and I'm sure I will find many more games that I will benefit greatly in... For starters, the build quality is fantastic, this feels like a premium controller, it makes my Xbox One controller feel like a cheap toy in comparison. The customization is great, I like playing with the Xbox 360 tension on the sticks, and it's great to have 3 different options to choose from. The BIGGEST selling point for me and many of you of course is the BACK BUTTONS, and let me tell you that these buttons are giving me a HUGE ADVANTAGE in Star Wars Squadrons. Being able to keep both my thumbs on both the thumb sticks at ALL TIMES while toggling my power systems as desired(using the back buttons) allows me to continue to track targets and/or escape enemies without losing control of my ship. It's just a huge advantage being able to multitask without having to reach over the controller to press other buttons. MY KDR nearly doubled overnight after I got used to the controller and now I regret going so long with this controller. Another thing is I think Microsoft totally nailed the configuration of the back buttons, they're not too big or not too small, just perfect. I even spent the extra money on the GeekSquad Protection to cover my controller for a few extra years. If you feel you will benefit from the back buttons in whatever it is you're currently playing, stop reading this review and purchase now or when you see a sale on this thing.

This is a very good controller very good price easier to use

The controller is great i like the quick profile change and the weight of it. The extra paddles on the back are a nice addtion compared to only having one set on the ps controller.

Great controller, Exchangeable buttons, paddles and sensitivity curve

Been enjoying my Elite 2 controller. Love the weight behind it and the way the joy sticks and paddles feel. I also like being able to adjust the trigger distance when playing first person shooters.

By far the best controller on the market. Battery life is amazing and the grip is perfect.

Great controller and really well made. Nothing wrong with it besides it being a bit pricey for a few extra buttons.

This was my go to controller for a long time. The back paddles are my favorite out of any of the other premium options that include back buttons. The triggers have 3 settings, great for fps games for faster trigger pulls. And the dpad is nice and responsive. My only complaint about the controller is the thumb sticks. While they do have the amazing option to adjust tension which is useful, they also have the worst recentering springs I’ve seen on any controller. There always seems to be a little extra play in the thumbstick and it never really returns to true center on its on. Overall a good controller and a solid option. If they fix the thumbsticks on the next iteration it would truly be the best option out there

Straight out of the box controller had massive stick drift. Both thumb sticks have serious drift and has been an issue the entire time I have owned. Did not have this issue with previous gen. Had high hopes but unfortunately this controller is not a home run, single at best.

I ordered an XBox Elite controller online for a Christmas gift and it was ready to pick up less then 2 hours later at my local Best Buy store. Once i went into the store. I was waited on immediately, got the controller within 2 mins. No hassel or anything. Great overall experience and I will continue to order my electronics from Besy But. Excellent self help and customer service. An this is not the dirst time.

Love it! Great feel, magnetic paddles are nice for customizing based on which game I’m playing

Good controller! Could be a user issue, but much heavier than PS5. Wears on my knuckles, BUT it’s pure quality.

My son is a gamer, he was so bliwn away when i gave it to him. He said it was the one he's had his eyes on.

Great controller. I’m glad Microsoft decided to sell this without the case for cheaper.

Order this item for my piece is great.I love it highly recommend
