Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love these controllers. The ability to set hot keys with the back toggles and preset up to 3 hot keys for different games/characters in games, comes in handy

Love this controller. Great battery life and very comfortable

Great controller not complaints as of now 1 year later. Decent battery life, responsive for game play.

Refurbished controller works perfectly. Happy with my purchase.

Much better upgrade from the Elite Series 1, the adjustment to the sensitivity to the joysticks is a much better improvement in adding precision to the shooter genre, always missing all the time. love the battery quality (40 hrs tops) no need to be charging every 4-6 hours and can do my marathon gaming without fear of running out of battery.

My boyfriend has been wanting this so I finally got it. He loves it.

Great controller will buy again if it does not work.

This remains the gold standard for first party controllers. It's pricy, there's no denying that, and while it is very good, it isn't going to turn you into a "MLG pro" gamer if you aren't one already. It is a refinement of the already very good Elite series 1 controller, and it fixes a lot of the niggles that came with that controller. I owned the original Elite controller, and while I didn't experience any of the mechanical failures that plagued the original model, many of the people I know who owned one did, and my rubber grips did eventually give up the ghost despite my taking very good care of the controller. Other improvements include the addition of a built-in chargeable battery and a charging mat inside the included case, the inclusion of Bluetooth for mobile and PC gaming (though you'll get best results pairing it with an Xbox wireless receiver for PC), a pleasing texture on the grips that wrap around more of the controller, and an additional customizable profile for swapping between controller configurations on the fly. It's not quite perfect yet, though. I'd have preferred the inclusion of a Play and Charge kit instead of the non-user-removable rechargable battery we got. The joysticks, while delightfully grippy, tend to also grip onto dirt and dust no matter how hard you try to keep it clean, so in short order, the sticks will look a bit grimy. Nothing I've found so far has managed to get them clean again. It lacks the new feature of the Series S/X controllers that allows it to swap between console and Bluetooth, so if you want to switch between using it for the Xbox and connecting it to your mobile phone, you'll have to manually re-pair it with your console. Physically, it feels a little smaller and noticeably lighter than the original, which, at least for me, was a lot of the appeal of the first model. These are all minor quibbles, and they don't detract from the overall package, but if you're spending 2/3 the price of a new console, it'd be nice to have to negatives whatsoever. On the whole, then, it's still the best controller I've ever owned. Can you live without it? Absolutely. But once you've used one, and gotten used to the features and the little extras, it is very hard to go back to the standard Xbox controller. I do not regret buying one for even a second.

By far the best Xbox Controller I've ever had. I fortunately got it on sale at a great price. The controller itself is the perfect shade of red really put together quite nicely. The packaging itself was very neat and clean. Though most importantly the functionality of said controller is more than ideal for any game. The layout of the controller with extra buttons and quicker response time is ideal for any game. Overall i highly recommend everyone to upgrade to this controller.

The best controller on the gaming market hands down.

I really wanted to like this controller, it felt very solidly well made, except for just one annoying thing: the rubber or latex or whatever material the black side grips are made of made my palms very itchy. Im not sure why. If it did not do that, i probably would have happily kept using this controller. Heres hoping microsoft uses a different, non itchy material for their future elite series 3 controller, if and when they release it.

Great controler minus the paddles of added buttons. But still programmable.

Good controller. Came with extra pieces and all buttons work great. Price was worth it

Great deal on an amazing controller. If your an Xbox person this is the controller for you

Great controller; it feels sturdy in my hands and has the right amount of weight. The fact that it is customizable is a definite plus. It's worth the price.

Great controller very sturdy and can adjust to your comfort it even comes with a little tool to loosen or tighten each stick and if you drop it they fall out instead of break it’s brilliant

This XBOX Elite series 2 core controller pairs well with PCs. I tried using my PS controller and it gave me a hard time. I would definitely buy another one.

You haven’t felt a real controller until you’ve gotten yourself an elite controller

Haven’t had a problem with stick drift yet after heavy usage for about 3 months now. I had a scuff I was using before that didn’t last up to what my elite has.

Well constructed, feels premium. Still not sure what to do with the back pedals, but all the buttons function without fuss like other xbox controllers xan sometimes. Would be a 5-star if not for the high cost. If you want the controller of your dreams and can afford it, then it's a great pickup. Otherwise try to wait for a sale
