    Way better than any other generation. Used all controllers from original Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One S, Xbox One X and Xbox Series X. This one is great!

    Best controller ever, I enjoy the option of not having to spend more for the paddles when the paddles aren’t ever the issue. The customization is great as well

    I had the elite 1. After many years of use the rubber grips we’re beginning to peel away. I was anxious for an upgrade. So glad I did. It is a fabulous controller. Main reason I jumped was the sale price.

    Upon unboxing, this controller feels and plays great. Solid build, great response, worth the money. But inevitably, after the warranty expires, stick drift creeps in. This is my 3rd elite controller, and every one of them got stick drift around the same time. Every time I assime after years they would engineer that out of the next model, but nope, its built in. I buy a lot of mid to high level electronics with no extended warranty, and this is the ONLY product I ever recall failing, and consistently at that. Idk how this is possible. My biggest issue is the warranty is only 90 days, when the standard in any electronics is 1 year. So Microsoft know they dont last. The price on these need to come down, or better yet, extend the warranty to a year. Im tired of getting ripped off on these controllers. Ironically, the generic plastic ones always seem to last longer.

    I purchased this as an open box excellent and it was like I purchased it brand new. It was nice getting a significant discount for something that appears to be barely used. It works well with my Xbox One X and my Dell gaming laptop and I am glad I purchased it to replace my 1st gen Elite controller.

    Very sturdy and nice controller. Everything is very smooth and case is super nice. Only reason I give 4 star is because I feel the price for what you get is too high.

    You probably don't need this controller. It costs as much as a new Xbox these days, and doesn't really do much differently than the standard Xbox One controller. It is clearly built like a tank and is a very impressive piece of engineering... but you probably won't find it worth the price of admission.

      Hey Dennis,

      Thank you for sharing your perspective on Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. It's true, the Elite Series 2 isn't for everybody -- it's been designed with the most passionate gamers in mind, especially those who play competitively. But if you're looking for the ultimate in construction, durability, and customization, we hope you'll agree it's hard to beat.

      Happy gaming,
      Chuck
