Best controller for Xbox players. the multiple presets for different button combinations are great. The back paddles make FPS games feel smooth and the adjustable triggers make shooting and aiming quicker. same goes for RPGs when you have multiple keybinds you want to use but still like the feel of controller gameplay, it truly makes the gameplay feel better and more in control.

After a very long hiatus from gaming, I decided to pick up a controller and take another stab at it. I subscribed to game pass and started looking for controllers. I started with an Xbox one controller, and quickly graduated to the Elite Series 2. I must say, there is no comparison, the Elite controller outclasses the original in every way. The overall design stayed the same, save for 4 cleverly, and strategically placed paddles. That can be programmed to do any thing you want. The X-box accessories app makes it very easy to navigate the mapping of your buttons, and allows up to 10 unique control settings. I would recommend this controller to any one, who’s willing to shell out the $200 to own this bad boy.

I’ve had this controller for a little over a year now and it is the best I’ve owned. Most controllers overtime will develop stick drift, this one has lasted and has a nice feel and function.

Worth getting it over the full elite controller bundle as you can save on the accesories by buying third party ones for much cheaper. Got this version for $93 with the BB+ membership so it was even better. No hall effect sensors but its for regular use

This controller was definitely a upgrade from the regular one. I love the feel and the accessories it comes with to give you a competitive edge in games. Pair that with best buy’s warranty, unbeatable combo!

I bought the original when it first came out and though I loved it, it eventually had a problem with the left stick and became unusable. The new one feels just as well built if not better than the first. The built in battery and charging case are very nice additions to the controller. I like that the rear textured grip is now on the front part as well. Overall I think it’s an awesome controller and though not cheap it’s worth it. This time I did purchase the Geek Squad protection just in case, since the price was reasonable.
Thank you for sharing your great experience with your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. We're thrilled that you're loving its updated design and rechargeable battery, too. We hope you have a lot of fun with it!
Happy gaming, Chuck Xbox Customer Care

This controller improves upon everything I love about the normal Xbox controllers. The tactile feel of the grips is great, the dpad circle works surprisingly well, and I love the trigger adjustment. I can keep them wide open for throttle modulating in racing games or turn it into a hair trigger for fps. I don’t really use the paddles on the back (which don’t come with this version), so no loss at all for me. The elimination of all the extras (case, different thumbbsticks, etc) brings the price point down into a a more reasonable range. I found some aftermarket paddles and while I don’t use them much they feel nice and we’re at cheaper. I’ve only been using for a little over a month or so, but probably used for 60ish hours. No problems with drift or build quality.

First and foremost, let's talk about the design. Microsoft has really outdone themselves with the Elite Series 2. The controller feels premium in hand, with a sturdy construction that exudes durability. The textured grips not only provide a comfortable feel during extended gaming sessions but also ensure a secure grip, even during intense gameplay.
As an avid gamer, I'm always on the lookout for tools that can take my gaming experience to the next level. The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller is one such device that has truly impressed me. From its sleek design to its customizable features, this controller is a game-changer in every sense.

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 purchased an open box controller that is listed in excellent condition on the website, and also on the label which is on the box. Best Buy‘s website, it states, item sold in excellent condition. Include all accessories. Well the controller did not include all accessories. I opened the box and I was greeted with the controller, however, no USB cable. Now don’t get me wrong. I know this might be a little nitpick, but if you’re going to list something as including all accessories, please include all accessories. Trust me I have more than enough USB cables lying around the house, so this is no major concern of mine. My concern for this purchase starts with the label that is on the box. Yes the label states excellent condition. There are however, three labels in total on top of the next. The original label states the controller is in satisfactory condition. The second label the controller is in good condition. And of course the final label states excellent condition. Well my issue is this if you’re going to change out the label take off the old one. Because now you’re gonna have a bunch of Customer scratching her head as to what were you guys actually hiding. The price difference between the three different condition levels is very negligible, I think maybe four dollars at the time of writing this review. I will say this the controller is in very good to excellent condition. Yes I saved roughly 70 bucks by buying it open box, and for that, this purchase receives four out of five stars.

The best controller I’ve ever used. You can change the tension on the left and right thumbsticks independently as well as the left and right trigger travel. The grip texture feels secure yet comfortable. FPS and platformer games are more enjoyable with this controller. Playing on a Windows 11 PC. I found a red controller on sale with the Total Membership for $94 which was well worth it considering normal controllers are around $70.

I absolutely love this controller. It's perfect in every way. And the customization is almost limitless. I wish I could give this controller more than 5 stars. It's literally a work of art! I highly recommend this controller if you want to improve your game and precision.

It’s got 4 additional buttons on the back you can re-map any buttons to make your gameplay that much more comfortable, you can adjust triggers to stop sooner if you want a quicker trigger finger. You can make the sticks stiffer to help combat drift sticks. You can also swap out the traditional D pad to the Omni pad (magnetic btw), and it’s equipped with silicon grips so it’s that much more comfortable in your hand. I honestly won’t be playing on any other controller. I forgot to mention, if you’re playing different games with different action controls (like Call of Duty vs Assassins Creed) you can set it up to make the paddles/buttons on the back have different “profiles” so you don’t get too confused about what buttons to press, just remember to switch back to the other button profiles when switching games (when necessary)
