Customer Ratings & Reviews

Loved the controller. Still have it and it’s still working wonderful

Amazing controller loaded with customizable button options.

Works better than previous gen, usb c, build in battery, and magnetic sensor in analog.

This Controller enhanced my Halo game playing experience.

Definitely made for the advanced player. A wonderful controller that will take getting used to (bottom paddles). Love the customization along with it. Hate the battery life.

It's awesome how you can customize the buttons and sensitivity. The battery life duration is amazing . The price could be better. I don't think the price is worth it really .

Feels better than any controller imo, only pro controller I know of without hall effect sticks. It's a must for fps shooting games.

The Xbox Elite controller feels amazing in my hands. It is so much of an upgrade to the standard controller.

Great feeling controller. Great battery life. Better than using batteries.

Good quality. Had no problem out of it and the customization is nice.

So far this controller has perfomed well despite negative reviews regarding stick drifting. I come from using the Razer Wolverine Tournament edition and still enjoy that controller, but its just something about having the option to play wirelessly and still getting decent performance results makes my gameplay experience so much more enjoyable. I also do prefer the back paddles and adjustable stick tention over the Razer as well. Hopefully the quality lasts long.

Great controller but for the price should have came with oaddles

Awesome product at a great price! Good coverage with BestBuy Plus! Nice to go into the store and get product without waiting for shipping!

Absolutely FANTASTIC. I had a scuf controller and it is literally a $300 paperweight.I wish I would have gotten this sooner. There are so many things you can do with this. I love it. I highly recommend you get the extended warranty though throw geek squad because I have read some reviews from some full-time high end streamers who have had issues. However, I am very please. I've streamed over maybe 50 hours and the battery is STILL full. I'm blown away. Stay away from Scuf...this is your controller. I promise.

Real talk. This controller is great, while it works. Get the extended warranty either from the retailer you purchase it from, or direct from Microsoft. I have had 3 of the controllers all start to present issues within 1 year of purchase. Stick drift, bad bumpers or triggers and sticking A,B,X,Y buttons. No drops, no spills Moderate gaming use. Be warry. This is sold as a premium product, and IMO the quality and durability falls far short of the price tag.

Good ! Sturdy.... last way longer than a regular one would

First things first this is an expensive controller and there a lot of other things to spend money on. But if you have the funds or are looking for a gift for an Xbox gamer, this is an awesome controller package. Everything has been built from the ground up to be the best (within reason) way to play on Xbox. The interchangeable parts, the quick settings for how different parts like the d pad react to your input is really well thought out, the nice bonus here is the really nice case it comes in, the usb c charging capability and the charging dock that can either be in the case or outside the case.

I purchased mine shortly after it released, though it wasn't delivered until November of 2019. I'm mostly a PC gamer, but I need a controller for occasional games that don't require M+KB. This seemed like a very robust and long lasting option compared to regular xbox controllers at the time. In short, the features are great, and it worked very well for about a year, but then it started having issues with the bumpers not registering a press every time. Now it takes many presses to get the bumpers to register a keypress. The joysticks also have a tendency to bounce too far to the opposite direction when I release them, causing me to snap the opposite direction I was intending to face. I called Microsoft to ask about repair, and they were very nice, but also explained I was out of warranty and repair would cost $100 plus shipping. A new one is only $165, so that repair cost feels a little steep. It seems like such a waste to throw it away after not even two years, but it's no longer reliable for gaming. I was certainly hoping it would be easier and cheaper to repair. The controller has great features and feels better to hold for long gaming sessions, but I'm a little disappointed with the longevity of the device.

got plenty of use of mine and enjoyed it greatly but like the series 1 before it the price increase does not come with durability increases. will the grip issue of the series 1 seems to be 99% fixed i was/ am seeing minor expansion after this year that could become problematic if other parts like the bumpers and sticks retained their life better. *when i mention durability ive never once thrown or otherwise put nonstandard ware and tear abuse on the controller but it seems that since even the 360 era microsofts controllers just aren't made to last daily use of 5+ hours for a full year

Great controller if you want the ability to customize the settings. Once I played with the Elite, never went back to standard. Like being able to swap dpads, adjust trigger pull, and add levers to the back for additional functions.
