The best controller by far. I wont ever use another controller. The lifespan of one of these is about 3 years so if you feel thats worth it just keep it in mind. I am a heavy user and the onyl thing that went wrong on mine was a single back paddle was only responding 80% of the time

Very good controller for the price. However the only downside is not coming with paddles. Moreover the paddles are cheap and easy to install. Great product overall. No stick drift and it’s got some weight. High quality

Bought this for my son. From what I gather from him this controller is excellent compared to the non elite series. One of his favorite features is the built in battery. He said if this one ever goes kaput he would want another one just maybe a different color.

Overall a good controller with back paddles. It is a plus if you are looking for added weight in comparison to the standard controller. The back paddles need some time to get used to. The most important feature to me is that the sticker click can be disabled.

Very good controller, this is my second one because I spilled a drink on my last one but it lasted 2 years. Love the 4 paddles on the back and how everything is interchangeable on the controller.

These Xbox Series X Elite controllers are totally worth the upgrade. They are so much more responsive, and feel so much better in my hands than the original controllers that come w/ XBOXs. I also love to use this controller with my PC games as well. The only thing I would change is I would make the controller where a Userer could easily clean the buttons if you spilled soda on them or something so they do not stick.

I'm gonna preface by saying this is my 3rd Elite V2 controller. However, despite the fact that I've went through 3 of them so far, there's a reason I still purchase the same controller. First off, it feels very premium and has a nice weight to it. The ability to customize it with different control sticks and dpads is awesome, and I love the customizable right and left shoulder buttons - it's great for FPS games. In addition to the customizable sticks and dpad, there's also the Microsoft Accessory app that works on both Xbox and PC. It offers even more ways to customize and lets you remap pretty much any button (including the 4 paddles on the back) and change the color of the Xbox logo. The controller also comes with a premium case and charging cable, as well as different control sticks and a different dpad. You can also charge it while it's in its case. The controller is rechargeable and the battery life is more than reasonable in my opinion. Again, I have went through 3 of these controllers. One of the grips began peeling on my first one, and then my second one had issues with the left bumper not working. I'm on my third one now and so far I haven't ran into any issues, though I have been trying to take good care of it to avoid anything else from happening. With all that said, I would still recommend this controller for any gaming enthusiast or someone who just wants a more premium controller. I have tried many controllers and this one just seems to be the best, despite it not lasting me as long as I'd like. I hope there's a V3 coming soon because I will buy it immediately when it comes out.

I love this controller! I used to buy the regular xbox controller but the analog sticks would always get really bad stick drick within 2 months of owning it. I would have to keep getting new ones every 2 months. This controller has lasted me over a year before having to get a new one. (They usually go fast because I like competitive game's) So if you are a competitive gamer, I highly recommend this controller! Also the extra buttons are great to have. (Sold separately)

Same as all the elite controllers, great grip, feels great in the hands, nice and heavy. This controller doesn’t come with the bottom paddles but I had a another one that I was replacing with this one because my top right bumper broke so I used those paddles and installed on this new white one.

I finally gave up on my only elite 2 controller as the bumpers were becoming very unresponsive. I bought this controller sense I have all the elite 2 stuff from the other controller. My only complaint is that when I bought this controller the 3rd trigger stop on the left trigger made it unresponsive and I have read other places where people were having this issue. Instead of returning it which would’ve been a hassle, I took apart the controller and filed down the area where the trigger hits the trigger stop. After I got it fixed and put back together it works like intended and still is one of my favorite controller but I just the fact that I had to fix it myself when it can broken was kinda frustrating when I know plenty of people who wouldn’t even know how to fix it and just return it is annoying

Great quality and feels good in your hands... always been a playstation fanboy until i switched to pc and man the feel of the xbox elite controller is unbeatable

So far, the joystick doesn't have stick drift. I will touch back when stick drift finally sets in. The buttons are removable and customizeable which is great. Sometimes I can't find my controller because it is black. As long as the controller can handle GTA6 when it comes out, I will be fine with it.

Great controller had one before but used it till it was on its last leg, was originally recommended by a friend, makes gameplay 10x more elite (ahhh see what I did there). Still bad at the game and miss 80% of my shots but it’ll take a different players gameplay to the next level

High quality controller allowing for a high degree of customization and enhanced gaming experience. One item to note is that the Core series controller does not come with the paddles for the back of the controller, so you'll need to purchase those separately if you don't already own them.

Best in comfort. Best in Quality. Bad in overall life. Sticks tend to start drifting 1 month after use. When purchasing, make sure to grab the warranty so you can return yours when it breaks and get a replacement for free.

Best controller sub $200. While Scuf controllers (among other brands) may have slightly better build quality, the price-to-quality is arguably better in the Elite 2 Controller. All the accessories are very well-built and the paddles are great.

This controller is an amazing piece to have for a gamer. This controller is a must if you are a more competitive player in certain games. The unit is premium with a bit of heft to it, so keep that in mind. The back paddles have a nice premium touch, while they conform to your hand without feeling awkward. The device itself has many presets you can configure as well. My last one lasted six years, so yes do not drop it so it can last you.

This controller has replaced my standard controller, and it is awesome! Heavy weight and solid in your hand, and so didn’t want all the extra levers and triggers, I just wanted it mainly for the built in rechargeable battery that last me 4-5 days easy playing 6-8 hours each day. Big step up from the older models of the elite, just seems solid and buttons are very responsive

Store associate suggested I get a warranty with product , saying that these controllers have a known issue for drifting, I have not experienced that with this controller. I am however a casual gamer , but I know when a controller is working properly and this one does!!

Better build quality than the standard controller; heavier with more quality materials. Easy to sync with your Xbox or connect to a PC. Note that it's the Core controller so you need to already have/buy separately the accessories for the back buttons (I didn't realize that but had them on hand from a broken controller before).
