    Great overall construction of controller, feels heavy and durable. Paddles are a definite game changer over stock controllers. No double AA, comes with internal rechargeable.

    Loved the look and feel of the controller, having owned an originally elite. ‘A’ button stuck fresh out of the box, had to return it, were our of stock, will probably buy again next time I wonder into store, elites are worth the money, just need to find another

    less than 3 months after purchasing the left stick is already drifting. Other buttons are also starting to feel like they’re underperforming. Very surprised considering I try to be as gentle as possible while using it.

      Hey Fern,

      We're sorry that there's an issue with the left thumbstick on your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft so we urge you to reach out to Xbox Support for assistance as soon as possible. They can be reached here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,

    I cant stress how amazing this controller is. Ive owned Xbox since the OG and after getting a PS5, the Dualshock 5 was so good it left me wanting more on xbox. Boy did this controller deliver... The Quality is unmatched, from the rubberized grips to the metal swappable dpad and not to mention the suuuper satisfying magnet when you click in new Thumbsticks of all lengths, sizes, and feeling. The ability to press ABXY without lifting off the thumbstick(and adjust the resistance of said thumbsticks) is an absolute gamechanger(or any other button with the Mappable Paddles). It doesn't end there, i love the hair triggers on this controller. You have the full pull, like a standard controller, or a medium setting and my personal favorite, just a little tap. The piece de resistance is the case it comes with THAT HAS A BUILT IN DOCK AND W/ USB C PLUG BEHIND THE CASE. For those wondering if the money is worth it, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED

    Great controller if you have arthritis issues

    I was hesitant about the price of this controller, but I am so, so, so glad I went through with buying it. I suffer from hand and thumb issues, and wanted to try a different controller. This Elite Series 2 was recommended by almost every site I researched, and by multiple arthritis forums. My other option was to cut down on my Xbox play time, but right now it helps keep my hands and mind busy during my layoff from work due to quarantine. The features that I (and my hands!) appreciate the most are the extra paddles on the back, and the ability to customize the tension on the joysticks. That was a lifesaver for my poor hands! I prefer the tension to be on the tightest setting so my thumb joints don't have to stretch so far to manipulate the joysticks. I also further adjusted their tension in the controller customization in the Xbox Accessories app on my xbox. It is only day 2 that I have had it, and it's gotten a few hours of use, and I absolutely love how accessible and customizable it is. It is a bit on the heavy side, but it is the only mark against it in my book.

    Is it expensive? Yes Is it worth it? YES. It's heavy which makes it feel sturdy, the paddles on the back add extra inputs (which I love) and the trigger locks are a godsend for shooters.
