Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's a recent generation xbox controller, so it can easily connect to your windows pc without the need of a dongle. The back buttons... on the back... are a life-changer. I would personally have a hard time going back to a controller without back buttons. You can customize the back buttons -and I think the general buttons too- however you want. You can have up to 4 back buttons in total and they are all removable. So if you are unsure about using them all at once, you can simply ease into it. The price is expensive, so make sure to properly think if you want such a product, but it is cheaper than getting the xbox core controller and the separate accessories. Great to play on your xbox or if you like to use controllers for your pc, it is easy to do so.

I said i would never pay more then 60 bucks for a controller was at best buy and decided to give the elite a try i will never use a standard controller again the elite has improved my gaming in call of duty and lots of other games and the customizing of the controller is outstanding well done Microsoft

Excellent controller. This is my 3rd one. Lasts longer than a regular controller. This is the only one I will buy

Works so much better than the regular wireless Xbox controller and doesn’t die as fast.

This controller is good but is it the best? Ill never know. I only trust microsoft products for gaming as other controllers arnt labeled "Xbox" now. Do i think its worth it? Welp. Depends lol. Do you make 360 no scope trick shots and make your controllers beg for softer less manlier hands? If the answer is no then stick to your boring, worthless less cool standard controller. If you want those cool 460 non no scope tacticular cam kill kill killers ya gonna have to shell out the guap (Money) for the Elite. But good luck cus i have more hours in games then your grandma has hours in the kitchen so trust me. The regular controller is just fine! As far as upgrades from last year it has adjustable Thumbsticks (wich is the best upgrade IMO as my 360 no scope sensitivity demands a harder tug) and other cool customizations i could care less about.

Probably, the best controller i've ever had very responsive, easy to use.And love the rubber grip

Good controller. Nice options Works right out the box.

I had the original Elite Series 2 controller so I didn’t need the extra accessories for this controller. The white on black color scheme looks so dope. The cheaper price is also a plus if you don’t mind not having the paddles and thin sticks! Great controller!

This is the best controller I have ever played with! The buttons are very responsive, the ability to change sensitivity on that trigger buttons is amazing, and the paddle buttons on the back feel great. I mostly play Fortnite and I use the most sensitive setting for my right trigger and the middle sensitivity for my left trigger. It’s taking me a bit to switch to using my back buttons instead of using the buttons on the front, but I’ll get there with more practice! The looks are great as well, but my favorite part is the magnetic charging station. I just lay the controller back in its case and it immediately starts charging! I don’t have to move it around first to make it work either. 10/10 would recommend. If it was $30-40 cheaper, I think these would be flying off the shelves!

The first thing I noticed was the heft of the controller. This thing is rock solid. I will say, playing with all four paddles didn’t let me get as good a grip as I wanted, so I only play with the top two (I have large hands and the lower ones got in the way), but I enjoy the advantage of being able to keep my thumb planted on the right stick. There is slight drift in the right stick out of the box and adjusting the stick tension did not fix it. That being said, it is so slight it’s so far only registered when looking at the map in Warzone. It otherwise has not affected my play. The short-throw trigger setting is great for any repeated with the trigger motion (e.g., semi-auto shooting). The paddles let me crouch and jump while aiming in CoD like the PC players, replace my stick presses for added finesse in NHL, and make some fun paddle shifters in Forza. Definitely a fun addition to my One X and happy to know it is forward compatible for the transition to the Series X. If you have the money to burn, it’s a fun addition, but not a necessity.

Superior to the normal controller plus it can be easily recharged.

Great.controller , big step from regular. Ez to mod, better feel, robust.

Really nice controller. Comfortable, light weight. If you’re looking for a controller that works with your Xbox, and your computer. You can’t go wrong with the elite.

LOVE ITTTTTT THIS IS THE BEST ONE TO DROP YET!! FEATURES ARE WILD

Best Xbox controller I have ever used. Great customization options.

Controller is great. Feels good in your hands when your playing. good grip.

This controller is just totally awesome. Fully programmable and will take ur whole gaming experience to a new level for sure!! I must say, though the programming part of it is definitely at a higher level capable understanding. I would recommend watching the associated video of this product if it’s still offered through Best Buy website and not recommended for younger children.

It is a nice controller it would be a great controller if they could fix all the issues with the drift and the dead zones and also the price is kind of high for what it is I think it should be only about $80 I don't think it's worth the almost $200 it would be a $200 controller if it used Titanium or something but I'm sure the cost of the material is not warranted $200 but it is a nice controller over the stock ones. I like the stock ones too of course it doesn't have all the other features that the this one has but I can live with the stock one because it's only $49 on sale and this is $200 so I can buy four regular controllers for the price of one of these but it's up to you preference and your money situation

I had and still use the original Elite controller (that one is now used on my desktop). This controller lives up to the reputation of the original and improves it. It's lighter yet more substantial when you are holding it. It has excellent battery life, and the feel of all the keys are mostly solid. I love the new size of the back paddles. Before I was always hitting them when I sat the controller down (which is a pretty big deal when watching Netflix or OneGuide video content). This one, I haven't registered a key press at all when I sit the controller down. Also, I love the charging stand. I keep the stand in my case and just charge when I'm not using it for a day or so. The case is a well designed accessory. +5 stars What I don't like, the built in batteries. I fear that eventually burn in memory will present as an issues, and I won't be able to replace the batteries -- Minus .5 stars. I also think this controller is priced too high -- Minus .5 stars. Other thoughts -- some have said the build quality is still an issue, particularly from units bought from BestBuy. I can say, I haven't had a single issue with build quality.

It’s an elite what do you expect 10/10 controller all around
