Customer Ratings & Reviews

Best premium xbox controller without the Hall effect joysticks. The materials that dampened the plastic cheap feel. Iconic xbox controller hand position. Not worth the regular price. Wait for a sale or open box.

My wife bought this for me, along with several other peripheral items, and my new X Box X series, for Christmas 2025. It's been amazing! The sensitivity and ease of use is great. I most definitely would recommend and/or repurchase this controller/brand again!

Love this controller use it everyday. Just make sure you don’t drop it.

I love this controller. It looks and feels like a quality piece of kit. Sadly as good as it is I find it breaks often. Definitely recommend getting a replacement warranty on this controller. I expect a controller to fail eventually but this thing always has a failure within a year. I’m by no means hard on my controller either I in fact take great care of my stuff. For nearly $200 I’d like this thing to not have a back button that fails to register after 6 months of use. I still rate it high because it is arguably one of the best controllers ever made but it seems they cheaped out on some components.

The control is heavier compared to the regular ones but the upgrades and changes you can make to it to make it your own style its worth every dollar you wont find a better controller!

It’s been over a year and I started experiencing problems it was perfect up until now didn’t have complaints up until now I thought it would last longer but it was good while it lasted it still works just annoying things like scrolling crazy fast for no reason and moving my aiming slightly.

Awesome. Works great. Able to game fast and easy. Replaced my last one that lasted a long time.

This is the best controller i’ve ever had. I’ve been so hesitant to buy it but then I went out and bought it and man it’s amazing. Not only does it have a good comfortable grip while gaming, BUT it also gives you a bit of personalization. I get that it’s pricy but if you’re on the fence, I would definitely recommend.

I love it…. So worth it. To be able to remap it in ur Xbox and change ur controller to ur favor. Like trigger locking to Increase fire rate and using the paddles in the back to save thumb movements and a really long battery life and it easily connects to PC and other devices as well.

To be honest, I freaking love this controller. I will never go back to a regular controller! Despite having tiny hands, I have no trouble using the paddles .. just comfortable all around.

Feels a lot better than a normal controller, and it’s nice being able to change out the parts, I play better at siege with it.

Great controller, i play video games almost every day and this controller feels so comfortable and durable i highly reccomend it. The response time too is phenomenal

Feels heavy and sturdy in your hands. Love the trigger stops and the quality is deff there. On the pricier side but i feel that its worth it.

Best controller on the market, period. I use this for almost all my gaming on my Alienware R16 and the build quality is night and day compared to a standard controller. The adjustable-tension sticks and paddles make a huge difference in feel and precision. If you’re serious about gaming on a PC or console, it’s worth every penny.

Does everything you hope it will do and more. The controller is easy to use, easy to charge and the paddles on the back are comfortable. I haven’t had any issues with stick drift but did have a little X button stickiness from first opening. No issues or concerns with the controller and well worth the price tag.

By far this is the absolute best controller I've ever used... it just feels like quality in your hands... and one you're used to using the paddles, you have the upper hand against ppl with a normal controller in any FPS game! I know it's expensive, but if you play a lot of FPS games, do yourself a favor and buy this!!!

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.

The elite series 2 controller is fantastic. I will never go back to another controller. The only problem with these is that they break down easily. An example of this is the bumpers just stop working. Definitely an item to get geek squad protection on as they will replace it for you.

So I purchased the Elite Series 2 controller, last year when it first came out, I actually swapped it for my original Elite controller (I had gone through a few of those as the rubber on the back came off them easily but that's another story). I was taken aback by the fact that the controller has a built-in battery. This is good in theory but the long term ramification is that eventually, the battery won't hold a charge as long as it once did, and eventually, it won't hold a charge at all. This is problematic since you have no way of swapping the battery out as you could in any other controller. But, the reason I'm writing this review now is that I'm having an issue that so many other people are having, my Series 2 is starting to have button response issues. More specifically the right bumper is barely registering my pressing it and sometimes doesn't seem to acknowledge it at all. I have an extended warranty with Best Buy but they are unable to replace it due to the fact that they don't have anymore. They suggested that I contact Microsoft about replacing the controller, but with a mere 90-day limited warranty, that ensures that by the time most people have issues like mine, they will be well outside of the manufacturer's warranty period. It's a real shame because the controller when it works is pretty good, the weight is satisfying and when everything works it's a very responsive controller. But I can't recommend the controller knowing that it probably won't even make it a full year with standard use.

This is the best controller for the Xbox, hands down!!
